«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.»
(Romans 12:2)

Dear Marisa,

Be not conformed to this world. If you live like the world, you’ll be overcome by the world. It’s as simple as that. So don’t let the world squeeze you into its own mold.

Instead…»be transformed» by the entire renewal of your mind. Overcome the world by having your mind transformed to think like God thinks. In other words, when you see something in the Word, say, «I agree with that. From now on I’m acting on that instead of what I used to think.»

For example, when sin calls your name, don’t answer. Agree with the Word instead and say, «I’m dead to that, Devil. You can’t pull me into it anymore!»

As you do that, you’ll find yourself changing. You will find yourself living like a world overcomer!
