We are to be conformed to the very attitude
of God. We are to take His innermost feelings,
place them in our hearts and cause our wills and
attitudes to conform to His. But the only way we
will get them is by acting on the Word. This is a
much higher calling and a greater form of life
than just submitting ourselves to God. We are to
have our attitudes changed to completely and
absolutely conform to the Son of the Living God.
The Word says we are predestined to be
conformed to His very image. It says we are
one with Him—one spirit with Him. It says we
have the mind of Christ, and we are bone of
His bone. Thank God, we’re connected to
Jesus—spirit, soul and body—through the
Holy Spirit and by His Word. We are completely
and totally ONE with Him, so let’s put ourselves
in God’s position for a moment.
Is there any part of your life God can’t handle?
Certainly not!
Have you ever caught God asleep? No, the
Bible says He never slumbers.
Have you ever gone to Jesus with a problem
He didn’t know how to solve? No.
Have you ever heard Jesus say, “Well, I
thought I had overcome the world, but evidently,
I haven’t.” No, you have not!
Well, we’re one with Him. If that’s His attitude,
then praise God, it should be our attitude.
We are overcomers with Him!
Jesus said in Matthew 19:26, “All things
are possible with God,” everyone would smile
and quickly agree, but the same Bible, the
same Jesus, the same Word of God says, “All
things are possible to him that believes”
(Mark 9:23). If you believe the first statement,
then you have to believe the second.
You and I need to change our perspective
in all of this. We are one with Him, so we need
to set our attitude to match His attitude. If we
are one with Him in the spirit, one with Him
in mind, and one with Him in body, then we
ought to be one with Him in attitude as well!
