“And do not be conformed to
this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may
prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.” —
Romans 12:2 (NASB)
In our daily life, we often
see people who act according to the situation. Many live such pretentious
lives. The reason behind this acting is usually self-interest — to gain profit
or favour. Some behave well not out of true goodness, but to show others that
they are righteous and earn a good name.
There are also many who do
certain things simply because “everyone else is doing it.” Even if they dislike
it inwardly, they conform outwardly just to blend in with the world. But
today’s meditation verse warns us: “Do not be conformed to this world.”
Our Lord Jesus Christ also
instructs us not to pretend or deceive, saying,
“But make sure your
statement is, ‘Yes, yes’ or ‘No, no’; anything beyond these is of evil origin.”
— Matthew 5:37 (NASB)
King David, who encountered
such people in his life, said,
“Surely every person walks
around as a phantom; surely they make an uproar for nothing; he amasses riches
and does not know who will gather them.”— Psalm 39:6 (NASB)
David refers here to those
who act as though they are good merely to accumulate wealth and possessions.
Even today, many put on a false front and pile up treasures for themselves.
But Apostle Paul instructs
us differently — to be transformed by the renewing of our minds, so that we may
discern “what the will of God is — that which is good and acceptable and
perfect.” God has a specific plan and will for each of us. Instead of
following the pattern of the world, we must discern His will and live
accordingly.
To know God’s perfect will
concerning our life, our mind must be renewed. For this renewal, the old sinful
nature must die. This is the experience of salvation. When we confess our sins
to God and seek His forgiveness, we are born again as His children. In that
moment, the tendency to wear masks and act deceitfully departs from us. Only
when our mind is renewed and transformed can we become worthy of the Kingdom of
God.
Did not Jesus say, “Truly,
truly, I say to you, unless someone is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of
God.” — John 3:3 (NASB)
Therefore, let us not change
our outward appearance or behaviour according to time, place, or people.
Instead, let us yield ourselves to God — to be renewed in our mind, transformed
in our inner being, and to discern His perfect will.
