ACE #275: Transformers

According to dictionary.com, one of the definitions of transform is: to change in condition, nature, or character; convert. When I hear transform, I am immediately reminded of the motion picture. In the movie, "Transformers," the characters are able to change from one being to another. Now I have never really understood the plot of the movie, which stems from the cartoon, but I know there is a transformation for battle. These vehicles, that appear to be normal, transform into mighty warriors that are poised to protect themselves from the opposition.   But, after it's all said and done and the battle is over another transformation occurs. They return to their normal state. I guess I would have to watch the movie closer to understand the purpose. 

But, my point is this - in the Kingdom of God, the transformation should be eternal. Once we have given our lives over to God and accepted His Son, Jesus, as our personal Savior, there is no return to what we previously were. It will not work. When we commit to following Jesus, we allow Him to transform us into a new creature. He will transform us to mighty warriors who stand poised and ready to testify about the goodness of serving a risen Savior who is not dead, but alive. It is more than meets the eye. The activation sets off a relationship that is not ordinary, but supernatural. 

So, people of God - activate. Operate in your transformation today, no deactivation. Keep you hands on the Gospel plow.



Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!
