TO THE BIBLE:
1 Thessalonians 5:21 AMPC
“But test and prove all things [until you can recognize] what is good; [to that] hold fast.”

LET’S TALK
In Romans 12, the Spirit of God, through the Apostle Paul, tells us something absolutely amazing. He says, “And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God” (Romans 12:2). But how do you renew your mind? You do so by changing the way you think, swapping your thoughts for God’s thoughts. When you do this, you’ll be able to “prove” what the good, acceptable, and perfect will of God is.

The word “prove” here doesn’t quite capture the full meaning. The original Greek word is “dokimazo,” which means to examine or scrutinise closely. Think of it like airport security. When you go through customs, they check everything to make sure nothing suspicious gets through. They examine you and your belongings carefully to decide if you can enter the country.

As God’s man or woman, you get to decide, after scrutinising, to allow only things that are consistent with the good, acceptable, and perfect will of the Father to come into your world. This is easy to understand because we are His righteous ones; we give vent to His glory; we give vent to His will. It’s our calling. Hallelujah!

Remember what the Master said in Matthew 16:19: “…Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.” When you disallow or permit something on earth, Heaven backs what you’ve said. Consciously and vehemently refuse the works of evil and forbid them in your nation, in your body, family, school, and every place around you.

Allow only the divine realities of the Kingdom into your world, and you start this with the renewing or transformation of your mind. With a renewed mind, you’ll think, permit, and express only God’s thoughts, His righteousness, love, kindness, joy, and peace in your life and your environment. Hallelujah!

GO DEEPER
Matthew 16:19 AMPC
I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever you bind (declare to be improper and unlawful) on earth [a]must be what is already bound in heaven; and whatever you loose (declare lawful) on earth [b]must be what is already loosed in heaven.

Philippians 4:8
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

PRAY
Dear Father, I’m yielded to the transforming power of your Word, enabled to discern and walk in your perfect will always. I’m your agent in the earth, allowing only that which aligns with your perfect will to come into this world and vehemently forbidding anything contrary to your purpose, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
