Present your body as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto God. Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. How is it done? You allow your new mind in Christ to take over your bodily senses. When you do this, you will find that the problems you had yesterday don’t exist today.
In presenting my body, I prove what is the perfect will of God. If I don’t present my body, then I will never prove it. Instead of having His perfect will, I may just have something that I want.
If you present your body by faith and by mercy, and do it because of the Finished Work, then anything God does will result in you revealing what He has done.
When trials come to those who refuse to present their bodies as living sacrifices, they reveal what they are like. All we can do is patiently sit back and hope the day comes when there will be a conversion. When trials come to a Spirit-filled Christian, they reveal what Christ has done and Who God is.
