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. —2 Corinthians 3:18, KJV
There’s a false notion among many Christians that the Word of God works only if you have ten hours a day to be shut up in a room all alone reading it. But the Word of God was written primarily to the 99 percent of the human race who will never be in “full-time,” salaried positions of ministry. God’s promises aren’t just for paid preachers. They are also for the everyday person on the street, the stressed-out mother dealing with a toddler stuck in the “terrible twos,” the truck driver, the clerk at Wal-Mart, the secretary, the businessman, the schoolteacher, and the courtroom lawyer. God’s Word is for the believer who fell into sin and lost everything except a heart that still cries out for God. Every Christian—any Christian—can be progressively transformed from glory to glory.
{ PRAYER STARTER }
Lord, I’m that everyday person for whom Your great promises were given. Teach me from Your Word the way to be transformed from glory to glory.
Being transformed from glory to glory is an
operation of the Holy Spirit on the inside—in our
minds, wills, and emotions.
