O LORD, FORM ME UNTIL I BECOME LIKE THEE (7)

TIMES OF REFRESHING ONLINE DAILY DEVOTIONAL www.thefountspring.org

DATE: TUESDAY, 4 JULY 2023

Seemingly, transformation begins with a sincere recognition of our need for God. Yes, it’s true. God does not form nor shape a man who is not willing to be transformed. As mortal beings, we acknowledge our inherent imperfections and limitations. We stumble through the maze of life, marred by our human weaknesses and shortcomings. However, it is in these moments of humility that we find ourselves drawn closer to God.

SCRIPTURE: Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. (Psalm 51:10 NIV)

REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: So, beloved, transformation is a process. And we must learn to embrace the refining process. It’s not instantaneous but rather a lifelong journey. Just as gold is purified in the furnace, we too are refined through trials and challenges. It is during these seasons that our faith is tested and our character refined. So, let us not shrink away from the difficulties but embrace them, knowing that God uses them to shape us, and molding us closer to His likeness. Stay Refreshed!

NOTE THIS: God does not form nor shape a man who is not willing to be transformed.

RESPONSIBILITY: So, we must with every sense of humility, learn to submit to God readily and willingly asking Him to transform us.

PRAYER: O LORD, give me the grace to willingly submit to Your leadership even as I ask that You transform me, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

PROPHETIC WORD: As you submit to the Lord, may He shape you and transform you, in the name of Jesus’ Amen!

BIBLE TEXTS: Psalm 51:10
