2 Corinthians 3:18
18 But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.
When
you look in a mirror, what do you see? Of course, you see yourself. But
God does not want you to see yourself in the natural. You may be sick,
weak, broke and depressed, yet God wants you to see yourself the way He
sees you — healed, strong, rich and whole because Christ is in you.
(Colossians 1:27)
God wants you to behold
as in a mirror the glory of His Son who is in you by His Spirit. As you
do this, His Word says that you are being transformed from glory to
glory — from poor to rich, sick to healed, loser to winner!
The world may say to you,
“It can’t be that easy. You can’t be transformed just by beholding the
glory of Jesus. No, you must do something about you. If you don’t put in
effort, nothing will happen. If you don’t start making changes, nothing
will change.”
But the world will never
understand that as you are beholding the glory of the Lord, who is the
successful one in you, you are being transformed from a failure to a
success. And this is not accomplished by any effort of yours to get
ahead in life, but by the Spirit of the Lord! (Zechariah 4:6)
As you behold the glory of
the Lord who is the healthy one in your sick body, you are transformed
from sickness to health. And this is not accomplished by any effort of
yours to keep fit and eat well, but by the Spirit of the Lord!
My friend, what can be
easier than beholding the beauty of the Son? So stop focusing on
yourself and your efforts. Look away from these things and begin to
behold the glory of Jesus who is in you right now, and you will begin to
behold the miracles that you need!
