Transformation

 Romans 12:2...And do not be conformed to this word,but be transformed by the renewing of your mind that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

We must be conformed or molded or transformed that is changed by renewing our mind with the things of God.  If we are to assist anyone we must have a transformed mind or a renewed mind.  The transformation does not happen overnight.  Many of us think that once our life is transformed, then our mind will be renewed.  It is a different way. When our mind is changed we will be transformed and our life will follow.

Our transformation is a continuous process.  we are conformed into into the image of God, as spend intimate fellowship with Him.  "but we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord"(2Cor 3:18nkjv). Beholding the glory of the Lord, all believers of Jesus Christ are transformed into the image of the True and Living God.

True Christians go through various stages of glory as they study the Word of God. This applies to sanctified Christians, they have been transformed after becoming a Christian and studying God's word daily.

 The transformation must be planted in our mind so we can assist others when it is needed as well as take care of ourselves. It's God who transform us so we will be able to avoid most worldly customs covetous, stubborn and arrogant. As we allow the Holy Spirit to work in us, we are truly transformed and can successfully assist our husband.  it is imperative to understand that our mind is renewed with the Word of God.

Spiritual transformation starts in the mind and heart.  A mind dedicated to God's truth will produce a life that can stand the test of time.  If your mind is changed, you will changed. Feed it with the Word of God.  When you sin, confess and repent immediately.  A changed mind will be different and more Christ like than ordinary people in thed world.

we must meditate on God's truth and letting the Holy Spirit guided and shape our thoughts and behaviors.  It has truly been a blessings to share with others in this newsletter.  May God's blessings rest upon all the clergy and their wives.

Destroy due to lack of knowledge

Hosea 4:6 NKJV  tells us..."My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.  Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me; Because you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children."

Not knowing the Word of God is what has destroyed the lives of many Saints.  It is sad that people's lives have been affected just because they do not know their rights as a Child of God. Ephesians 4:11-12 let us know that...And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ. It is our responsibility to know the Word of God, so we can live a victorious overcoming life. Be blessed! areskridge6840@att.net.  Dr. Annie R. Eskridge

Resilient faith

 Resilient faith is one that will bounce back, you take a licking and keep on ticking.  this is the way we feel when we are faced with challenges.  Faith is the heart and not the head. Paul tells us in Romans "for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confessed, resulting in salvation (Romans 10:10 NASB).

Life can be tough.  We need resilient faith to survive during this time.  Faith may come easy to you, or you may be like many who struggle with it. Thanks be to God we need to understand faith when difficulties knock on our door, you faith will be tested , tried and shaken upside down.  However, we can maintain faith in God that is resilient. Resilient faith is a quality of faith that's able to see you through trouble, temptation and trials and in the end we are victorious.

Resilient faith provides:

an actual foundation for a sure hope for mankind. It frees you to do what is good and right and it helps you find joy even in a world of pain and suffering.  this is ours because of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. we should be ready to fight, tough and violent and refuse to give up. we are winners, we have taken the shield of faith and we are able to quench all of the fiery darts of the  wicked one. Be Blessed, Evangelist Dr. Annie R. Eskridge, DMin.  areskridge6840@att.net.

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path Psalm 119:105 NKJV.

Seven Things Bible Study Does for Us:

, 11).

3    Defers us from sinning and saves us from the pain sin causes (Exodus 12: Deut 8:3).

     Imparts the counsel we need to live fulfilling lives James 1:22).

        Changes us and enables us to be what God wants us to be (Ephesians 6:17).
