Now, Ezekiel, tell everyone in Israel:
I am the LORD God. Stop worshiping those idols I hate so much and come back to me.
ROMANS 12:2 (NLT)
Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
The only way that you'll mature into the new person God intends you to become is if you stop doing things the way everyone else does them and do things God's way.
PRAYER
Creator God, thank you for sending your Son into the world to renew it after we messed things up. Forgive us for holding onto the old messed-up ways of doing things -- ways that undercut your renewal. Renew my mind and heart so that I act and think differently about everything. Help me accept the idea that I'm not going to fit in to what everyone else is doing. I'm going to let you change me. Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name, your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
