“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.”
‭‭II Corinthians‬ ‭3‬:‭18‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
If we are gonna change from glory to glory, it is vital for us to participate in the process of the Holy Spirit, working in us the image of Christ.

And Jesus went forth...moved with compassion...and he healed their sick…. And great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus’ feet; and he healed them: Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they glorified the God of Israel.
Matthew 14:14; 15:30-31
Jesus was moved with compassion, and compassion moved Him to action. The hurting, broken, blind, lame, and sick were not inconveniences to Jesus—they were opportunities for His mercy to be revealed. Ask God today to give you eyes to see what He sees, a heart that feels what He feels, and the courage to become an expression of His compassion.

“But He said, “The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.””
‭‭Luke‬ ‭18‬:‭27‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
Faith is not turning to God after we have exhausted every human option; faith is trusting God first. Jesus said, “The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.” When we trust God first, we are acknowledging that His wisdom is greater than ours, His power is greater than our ability, and His ways are higher than our ways. Don’t wait until you have tried everything you can think of before you trust Him.

“Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.”
‭‭II Peter‬ ‭1‬:‭2‬-‭4‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
God has already provided everything we need to live a godly life. His grace, power, and promises are not merely encouragement for the journey—they are God’s provision for our transformation. As we grow in the knowledge of Jesus, we begin to experience His promises and become increasingly like Him, escaping the corruption of the world and participating in His divine nature.

Hebrews 13:17

09/02/2026

“I say to you, though he will not rise and give to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence he will rise and give him as many as he needs.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭11‬:‭8‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
Persistence in prayer is not about convincing God to care—it is about refusing to stop seeking Him. Jesus uses this story to challenge us to keep knocking, asking, and seeking even when the answer does not come immediately. Persistence reveals the depth of our faith and keeps our hearts engaged with God rather than discouraged by delay. This is an invitation to keep coming, keep believing, and keep trusting His character.
