<strong>Transformation</strong> 26<br />

The moment your heart rejects<br />

God, you dethrone Him literally<br />

from your life and when this<br />

happens, you invite trouble to<br />

take over. Whatever it is you<br />

allow your heart to honor other<br />

than God, will bring you hell on<br />

earth. God will prove you wrong<br />

and He will show you that you<br />

were never after Him – your<br />

heart was really very far from<br />

Him, you rejected Him, His ways<br />

and teachings and instead chose<br />

to follow your own path. We<br />

must let God be God and let Him<br />

have His way.<br />

‘Sometimes a way seems right to a<br />

man, but the end of it leads to death’<br />

(Proverbs 14:12).<br />

The perfect will<br />

This is the decreed, unchangeable,<br />

foreordained will that God has for<br />

us. It cannot be changed, neither<br />

can it be altered. This is the kind<br />

of Gods will we are all called to<br />

allow to control our lives. The<br />

perfect will of God is not a walk<br />

in the park. Its painful, the road<br />

is full of ups and downs but it is<br />

the best for us. In the end, it<br />

brings us joy and victory to our<br />

lives and glory to the name of<br />

God. This, as a child of God, is<br />

the kind of will you must seek to<br />

live in. Your calling and your<br />

entire life must be under Gods<br />

perfect will. This means knowing<br />

the mind of God for you - what<br />

He wants from you and what He<br />

wants you to do. The only way<br />

out of this will is through<br />

submission and obedience.<br />

King David sinned against the<br />

Lord when he slept with<br />

Bathsheba and let her husband<br />

Uriah killed in battle. God<br />

became angry and He sent Nathan<br />

to the king to deliver a message;<br />

David was repentant and Nathan<br />

said,; “The Lord forgives you; you<br />

will not die. But because you<br />

have shown such contempt for<br />

the Lord in doing this, your child<br />

will die” (2 Samuel 12:13-14).
