Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. ..Rom 12 v 2
Being Transformed means having a new perspective being turned completely round which can partially be due to enlightenment to the error of your ways and repenting of them or by revelation.
Being transformed is being in alignment with the Will of God. What is that? The overall umbrella of it is within our daily prayer
“Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”
From that it can be assumed that we should mirror Jesus and His Kingdom in Heaven in our life here on earth. We are commissioned to be transformed to demonstrate that goodness of God. Jesus gave us His authority to do even greater things than he had demonstrated in his life and the 2 New Covenant commandments.
In heaven there is no authority of the enemy unlike as there is in the world.
Satan, sin and sickness have no place in heaven. There is only the Kingdom the power and the Glory.
That transformation is celebrated by everyone being valued for who they are not what they are not and each one is perfectly designed uniquely. Nothing in heaven is separate from God.
Just as He is Love, He is heaven it is abiding in His presence and mirroring His presence. All of these things we can reflect, mirror and be part of here on earth before departing this world.
Jesus departed in the transfigurations, which we commemorate today, to be seated as Christ in heaven until His coming again but He did send His Holy Spirit, which we commemorate at Pentecost, to be our advocate in the interim.
Scripture warns us not to grieve the Holy Spirit with our own sin and ambition or to quash the Holy Spirit by stopping His flow or failing to do what we know to be right.
The illustration is that of us face to face with Jesus mirroring Him. Posturing ourselves as He did on the cross to signify dying to sin. The Spectrum signifying the Holy Spirit within us mirroring Christ. The Light representative of him being taken in the transfiguration in blinding light and the feet resting on the world representing our life here and now treading the way in Gods Will on earth.
Two scriptures that come to mind are:
“And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.”2 Corinthians 3:18
“I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.”Galatians 2:20
The song link below reminds us of His continuing calling us.
