The Miracle of Transformation
David Cawston
II Corinthians 3:18
Introduction:
Word: "Metamorphosis"
metamorphoo (met-am-or-fo'-o);
to transform (literally or figuratively, "metamorphose"):
KJV-- change, transfigure, transform.
Caterpillar into a butterfly.
4 times this word is used in the New Testament
Matt 17:2
2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. (KJV)
Mark 9:2
2 And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John, and leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them. (KJV)
Rom 12:2
2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. (KJV)
2 Cor 3:18
18 But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.
This word describes the process that God is doing in our lives.
As my text states He is desirous in changing us daily.
It is no less a miracle whether it takes 1 second or 100 years. Time is not as important with God as the end results.
The miracle is still the same!
Time – quick or lengthy
• Be transformed on the Mount with Peter James and John
• Water into wine!
• Create the World in 7 Days
• Transform a Jacob (the grabber and the one that wrestled with God) into the Son of God called Israel.
The only difference is the time of the process and material!
Life is a process of transformation.
For good or bad.
You have been changing since the day you were born!
