Transcript
- 0:00Who is shaping you, the world or the Almighty?
- 0:03Are you letting the world take away the joy of following Jesus?
- 0:06This is a reminder that God is your potter (reference Jeremiah 18) When God made us,
- 0:12He made us in his perfect image.
- 0:14We let the world fill us with dross and we think and act lesser than he made us.
- 0:19But God gave us (his followers) a new heart,gave us faith and filled us with the renewed spirit when we professed our faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.
- 0:29When we confessed that we are sinners, He saved us, we were born again in his likeness.
- 0:35At this point we get a chance to let the Bible and His word shape us.
- 0:39We should submit to the transformation.
- 0:41He takes us and makes us into perfect little images of the perfect, pure, sinless one.
- 0:47We should submit to this transformation.
- 0:50He and only He knows how far we have come and what He has in store for us, I trust that it is good.
- 0:55Our job is to wear the armor of God and refrain from giving this earthly world any power to shape us.
- 1:02Seek purity and goodness,cling onto that one thread of Jesus’ hem and stay your mind on him now and always.
