Transformation is at the heart of the Christian journey. Transformed in His Image is not about surface change or temporary improvement—it’s about becoming more like Christ from the inside out. 2 Corinthians 3:18 beautifully captures this ongoing process of spiritual renewal and growth:
📖 “And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.”
(2 Corinthians 3:18, NIV)
In this verse, Paul describes believers as mirrors reflecting God’s glory. When we turn to Christ, the “veil” that once separated us from God’s presence is removed. Through the Holy Spirit, we begin a lifelong transformation—becoming more like Jesus in character, attitude, and purpose.
This change doesn’t happen instantly. It’s a continual process, one that deepens as we spend time in God’s presence, study His Word, and allow His Spirit to work within us. Transformation is both divine and personal: God initiates it, but we must choose to walk in it daily.
It reflects God’s glory – As we are changed, others see Christ in us.
It renews our hearts and minds – The Spirit reshapes our thoughts, desires, and priorities.
It draws us closer to God – Transformation is the fruit of communion with Him.
It equips us for purpose – A changed heart produces godly actions that impact the world.
Spend time in God’s presence – Transformation begins when we regularly behold His glory through prayer and worship.
Stay teachable – Allow the Holy Spirit to correct, guide, and renew you daily.
Live out the change – Let your transformed heart influence your words, relationships, and choices.
Encourage others – Help others see that true change comes from the Spirit’s work within, not from human effort alone.
2 Corinthians 3:18 reminds us that transformation is not about striving—it’s about surrendering. When we look to Christ, we are changed little by little, becoming reflections of His love, grace, and truth.
📖 “And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.”
(2 Corinthians 3:18, NIV)
✨ True transformation isn’t about who we were—it’s about who God is making us to be.
