True change starts with transformation

-

My search for truth and meaning of life started when I recognised that I need change in my life, this was  motivated by a realisation that my religious upbringing was not providing me with the answers I was seeking.I then tried New Age beliefs, but they were also unsatisfactory.

I now believe that the reason both of these things failed to satisfy me is because religion offered me rules and regulations, while New Age beliefs taught me partial truths about the spiritual realm. They both offered me changes that are rooted in the physical realm, while the Kingdom of God offers a deeper kind of change that is rooted in the spiritual realm to impact my spirit and soul.

Spiritual transformation

The Kingdom of God offered me a spiritual transformation that starts from the inside out and changes my character so that I am well-positioned to be used for Kingdom purposes. My spiritual transformation is more important in the Kingdom than my physical transformation, and it requires me to submit to the Kingdom correction process, even when it is painful.

Spiritual transformation is the true change that is necessary for me if I am to be an agent of change. It will rescue me from the realm of darkness and bring me into the Kingdom of Light, which enables me to see through the enemy's schemes that are aimed at deceiving me.

Imitating the ideals of the Kingdom of God is easier said than done, but it is crucial to my journey because imitating the ideals of this world would prevent me from being transformed and empowered to discern God's will for my life.

LIFE LESSON: To prove the invisible exists, live like it exists

A few years ago a friend made this comment, “It would be so much easier to convince others God exists if he was visible”. He was saying this out of frustration because he could not convince his colleagues in an argument that God exists, because they said they would only believe it if they see him with a naked eye. When this statement was made I was still new in my faith and it bothered me because I would also be stumped if someone would ask me to prove the existence of God, I could point to created things but I knew it would not be enough. I had not thought about this in a while and when I revisited it recently I realized I still did not have a convincing response to a skeptic who would only be convinced of the existence of God when they see him in the flesh. This time I was not going to let it go, so I decided to dig a little bit deeper to find the right argument. We are made in the image of God God is a spiritual being which means he exists in a dimension superior to the natural dime

LIFE LESSON: The spiritual battle is not about finding a healthy balance.

When I first started my journey of faith in Christ I was excited because of the new way I was seeing God but I could also be tunnel visioned when I am excited about something as a result a lot of well meaning people in my life advised me to find a healthy balance between spirituality and the reality of life I struggled with this concept of balance because I did not understand how to make it work practically. My intention is to go for everything that God has planned for my life, so this concept seemed to mean there are things of God I needed to compromise to find this balance.  It is still a struggle for me to live out this balance but at least now I know that I am struggling with it  because it is not possible to find a happy medium between the spiritual being and the natural being in me. Here is why. Body, Soul and Spirit Humans are made of body, soul and spirit, with the body we perceive the natural realities, with our soul the link between the natural being and the spiritual being w

What I priortise will lead towards or away from my destiny.

Life lesson :  Viewing life on earth in light of eternity is crucial to experiencing true life Throughout my life, I have embraced the principle of "family first," rooted in my denominational church upbringing and aligned with African Spirituality. However, this principle clashes with the teachings of the Kingdom of God, which prioritize seeking the Kingdom above all else (Matthew 6:33). When I prioritized family, my focus drifted away from Christ. In contrast, the Kingdom of God emphasizes focusing on Christ as the central figure (1 Corinthians 15:47). This focus leads to daily communion with Christ, providing a perspective that views life through the lens of eternity (2 Corinthians 4:17) and fostering an intimate relationship with Him. This relationship kindles a longing for the unseen and eternal, facilitating a spiritual awakening through Christ (Colossians 3:1). While the family unit is significant and encouraged in the Kingdom of God, prioritizing it above the Kingdom h
