A Glorious Transformation

Hello everybody,

How are you doing on this day? I hope well and bubbling in the Lord. Happy SundayJ We thank God for His great love for us. And we thank God for the great hope that we have, of spending eternity with Him, and having our bodies transformed into the likeness of our Lord Jesus.

Primary Text – Philippians 3v21

“Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto His glorious body, according to the working whereby He is able to even to subdue all things unto Himself.” Philippians 3v21 (KJV)

“Who will transform and fashion anew the body of our humiliation to conform to and be like the body of His glory and majesty, by exerting that power which enables Him even to subject everything to Himself.” Philippians 3v21 (AMP)

“He will take our weak mortal bodies and change them into glorious bodies like His own, using the same power with which He will bring everything under His control.” Philippians 3v21 (NLT)

Wow. So we are going to have bodies which are fashioned like that of the Lord Jesus Christ. Totally awesome.

Supplementary Texts

“For whom He did foreknow, He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom He did predestinate, them He also called: and whom He called, them He also justified: and whom He justified, them He also glorified. ” Romans 8v29

“But let me reveal to you a wonderful secret. We will not all die, but we will be transformed! It will happen in a moment, in the blink of an eye, when the last trumpet is blown. For when the trumpet sounds, those who have died will be raised to live forever. And we who are living will also be transformed. For our dying bodies must be transformed into bodies that will never die, our mortal bodies must be transformed into immortal bodies. Then, when our dying bodies have been transformed into bodies that will never die, this Scripture will be fulfilled: “Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?” 1 Corinthians 15v51-55 (NLT)

Have a very blessed day.

Prayer

Father, we thank You because You are great, awesome, glorious, and there is none like You. Indeed all power, and honour, and dominion belongs to You, and we exalt You because our light afflictions, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory in Jesus name, amen.
