Roma 12

 2020, 13 Jan


Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.

Romans 12:2 NIV


This chapter tells about "collection of advice". Long life has passed, and I have the Holy Spirit, so I should have the seeds of truth in my heart and live a new life according to what Christ taught.


just this morning, I was already upset because I suddenly had a toothache. immediately want to get angry. so I didn't have time to write in the quiet in the morning and grumbled instead.


indeed the pain can affect my mood. but I should be able to maintain my emotions not based on conditions but what holds on in my life.


For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you.

Romans 12:3 NIV


as a person with pride heart. as someone who has pride. I am grateful that this verse always reminds and pierces me, so that I do not think too much even to the point of being negative to people. whereas think enough and simple. it's easy to judge people even though the judgment is God's right. I beg for God, because of my pride.


Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.

Romans 12:9‭-‬10 NIV


give sincere love to the people around you, especially to your brothers and sisters in Christ. as a leader, I should be able to teach and guide, not take over work or just scold. God gave me the opportunity to become a leader, so that I can also give an example as Jesus has taught.


Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality.

Romans 12:11‭-‬13 NIV


I must have zeal, to serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.


how you pray now? what you pray for? still pray for your brothers and sisters, for ministry, for people whom study bible or seeking God? or just pray for your selfish desire?


On the contrary: “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.”

Romans 12:20 NIV


be generous, and forgiveness. To do this like 'uhh' but if this is God's will i do.


Father, help to always understand Your will and Your dreams for me. So, i can pleasant Your heart.


Thank you for today Lord. ♥️
