BECOMING LIKE YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER
By Pastor Ayo-Simeon Agbelusi
Many believers struggle with the idea of becoming like Jesus, thinking it’s impossible to embody God’s nature in righteousness, forgiveness, holiness, compassion, and true love. However, according to God’s Word, nothing is impossible.
As stated in 2 Corinthians 3:18, “But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.”
The Holy Spirit plays a crucial role in our transformation, enabling us to possess God’s nature and operate like our Heavenly Father. This journey begins with:
– Drawing closer to God: Cultivate an undying hunger for His presence
– Reasoning in His Word: Meditate on Scripture to deepen understanding
– Beholding His face daily: Prioritize prayer and communion with God and never forsake the assembly of His people.
As you seek God’s glory, He will manifest Himself to you, just as He did to Moses. You’re created to resemble your Heavenly Father, and that’s who you’ll become in Jesus’ name.
Declaration:
Father, change me to be like You. Remove every imperfection in my life, reveal Yourself to me, and show me Your glory in Jesus’ name.
