July = MIND POWER

Focus scripture: Romans 12:2 KJV

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Today, I have really been thinking about what it means to be conformed. I looked up the word and the definitions are VERY interesting…

1- comply with rules, standards, or laws.

2- (of a person) behave according to socially acceptable conventions or standards.

3- be similar in form or type; agree.

For me, when this scripture has been read and taught in the past the conformed is always thought/taught to be not to be similar in form or type; agree – with the world. Right… Make sense…? Should we, however, comply with the rules? Should we behave accordingly to socially acceptable conventions or standards? What do we and what do we NOT conform to? Good question huh? What conforming is acceptable and what conforming is not.

The Bible teaches us structure. The Bible gives us the foundation. The Bible provides us with examples… These are all for us to make up our own mind as to what is good and acceptable and what is not... What to and not to

conform to (depending on the definition that applies). We need to look deeper than face value. As we grow we need to know… Know what is good… know what is acceptable… Know what to do and not to do… CHANGE YOUR MIND for the better… For your growth… For your maturity…
