Romans 12:2 is the foundation of this website. I’m going to meditate on this passage of Scripture throughout the week and share what comes to mind.
Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.

The following is an excerpt from Bill Johnson’s message “The Challenge of Promotion”.
If you were to go back five or ten years ago, especially as I was growing up, if you found a great promise in the Scripture, it almost always was reserved for the Millenium. If there was anything in the Prophets that was extraordinarily good, it was a verse that was supposed to be in that mysterious period of time called the Millenium.

While Jesus was having dinner at Matthew’s house, many tax collectors and “sinners” came and ate with him and his disciples. – Matthew 9:10
That’s amazing. I don’t know many hardcore sinners who would consider hanging out with most Christians. What was it about Jesus that drew so many people to Him? How was Jesus so different from us?
Yes, He was the Son of God, but He limited Himself to humanity and walked only in the power of the Holy Spirit. He said only what He heard the Father say and did only what He saw the Father do.
Father, I have not been a man sinners would love to spend time with. I’ve lacked the love and compassion that moved Your Son Jesus. I choose to repent of criticizing people and selfishly caring more about my own comfort than loving others who desperately need You. Fill me with the power of Your Holy Spirit. Renew my mind so that I will think like Jesus, love like Jesus, and talk like Jesus.
Thank You for Your goodness.

As I wrote my last post, I heard my own soul asking a question I expect some of you will have: “How do you know that your prayer will be answered? What makes you sure it’s the right way to pray?”
Let’s look at Scripture:
We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
2 Corinthians 10:5
