Transfiguration of Jesus: How You Can Be Transfigured by God!

Transfiguration of Jesus: How You Can Be Transfigured by God!

To be transfigured by God means a physical experience of divine revelation where you catch a glimpse of God’s glory with effects on your body, soul and spirit. Did you want to experience a powerful transformation like the transfiguration of Jesus Christ? Then today’s message will guide you on the steps to take for you to be transfigured by God.

Transfiguration of Jesus Christ and others in the Bible

Throughout the Bible, we find several instances of transfiguration that provide insights into this powerful transformative experience.

1. Moses’ transfiguration

Moses was transfigured by God and his face radiated with a divine glow after spending forty days and nights in the presence of God at Mount Sinai.

This radiant glow served as a testament to the transformative power of engaging with God and symbolized Moses’ role as a mediator between God and His people.

“Now it was so, when Moses came down from Mount Sinai (and the two tablets of the Testimony were in Moses’ hand when he came down from the mountain), that Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone while he talked with Him.” (Exodus 34:29)

2. Elijah’s transfiguration

Another example of transfiguration is found in the life of the prophet Elijah. After series of challenges and trials, Elijah reached a breaking point, seeking refuge in a cave on Mount Horeb.

It was in this moment of despair that God revealed Himself to Elijah, not through a mighty wind or an earthquake, but through a gentle whisper.

This encounter with God transformed Elijah’s perspective and renewed his sense of purpose, propelling him forward in his prophetic ministry.

“And after the earthquake a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire; and after the fire a still small voice.” (1 King 19:12)

3. Transfiguration of Jesus Christ

Jesus Christ was transfigured by God in the presence of Peter, James and John. His face was shining like the sun and his clothes were as white as light.

This extraordinary event serves as a powerful symbol of the transformative power of God’s presence.

And He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light.” (Matthew 17:2)

 You can also be transformed by God if you seek for this unique experience. I asked for God’s transfiguration and I experienced it.

5 Powerful Ways to be Transfigured by God

I realized that there is no thumb rule for transfiguration by the LORD. To be transfigured by God is a deeply personal and unique spiritual journey for you. The key steps for you to experience transfiguration by the LORD include:

1. Seek the Presence of God

The first step towards transfiguration is to seek the presence of God with a sincere heart of holiness. You have to do this through prayer, meditation, and spending time in solitude, allowing yourself to be still and open to God’s voice.

2. Uphold Spiritual Discipline

You must be willing to confront your inner struggles and vulnerabilities by acknowledging your weaknesses and surrendering them to God.

3. Engaging with Scripture

The Word of God will serve as a guiding light on your journey of transfiguration. You will gain wisdom, insight, and encouragement that will shape your understanding of God’s transformative power when you immerse yourself in scriptural revelations.

4. Heartful of Praises and Worship to God

Gratitude opens the door for you to be transformed by God. Cultivate a grateful heart and intentionally focus on the blessings in your lives because the LORD dwells in the praises of His people.

5. Faithful Endurance

Transfiguration from the LORD is a spiritual process which involves God testing your heart and intention. It requires patience, perseverance, and a willingness to allow God to work in His perfect timing. So, be faithful and don’t be distracted by the things of this world.

5 Benefits of Spiritual Transfiguration

1. The LORD turns you away from miry clay to gold.

2. The Devil cannot touch you anymore. Even when the Devil roars at me, he finds it difficult to near me – Hallelujah!

3. You will receive special high level spiritual authority from the LORD.

4. The LORD and Jesus Christ will dwell in you constantly.

“Jesus answered and said to him, if a man loves Me, he will keep My Word. And My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with him.” (John 14:23)

5. You won’t be an ordinary person again!!

You can be transfigured by God if you seek for a close relationship with the LORD and you separate yourself from worldliness. I encourage you to take your spiritual status to the next higher level by allowing the LORD to perfectly control your body, soul and spirit.

17. Family conflict is a big factor that affects prayers.

10 Things to Do When Your Prayers Not Answered

3. Unanswered prayers will be gone if you stop this deliberate sinful lifestyle!

4. Present prayer requests that will benefit you and everyone around you.

5. Be genuinely born-again so that the Spirit of GOD can communicate easily to you during your prayers.

6. Always bless the poor. I cannot quantify the blessings I received from the LORD doing this wonderful act.

7. Save yourself from curses by praying in tongues you understand. If necessary, the LORD knows when to take control of your tongues for other languages.

8. Be patient when you experience unanswered prayers because it means GOD’s timing is not the same as yours for such requests.

9. Resolve any form of family conflict in your home and you will be surprised with the numerous unanswered petitions turning into testimonies.

10. Be anxious about nothing and stop comparing your life situation with other people around you!

Unanswered prayers do not mean you are no longer a child of GOD and it does not change the fact that the powerful LORD can hear. So, I advise you to take it easy and be calm. Stay faithful to the LORD by obeying His rules given to us through Jesus Christ.

I pray the Almighty LORD will have mercy upon you and all the critical requests you seek GOD’s help for will be granted upon you in Jesus’ name.

The Book of Life in the Bible: How to Ensure Your Name is Written

The Book of Life in the Bible: How to Ensure Your Name is Written

The Book of Life in the Bible is a special record that contains the identities of people that will dwell with GOD into eternity. The peculiarity of this Book is that the angels or Jesus Christ cannot have access to it except the LORD.

I would love to share a vision the LORD revealed to me that buttresses the fact that the Book of Life in the Bible is real.

“I found myself in a very massive beautiful courtyard which has the throne of the Judge in the centre and there is an exit route by the right and left side of the throne.

The courtroom is quiet and the fear of GOD is all over and the peaceful air in the massive room cannot be compared to that of the earth. Everyone is in a single queue and massive number of dead souls keep joining every second.

Everyone moves forward to the Judge and in less than a blink of an eye the judgement was done. I noticed so many souls pass through the left exit and very scanty souls pass through the right exit.”

The Book of Life in the Bible is a highly intelligent record that your brain can’t comprehend the details so don’t be deceived by religions such as Jehovah witness and other preachers who deceive people that GOD won’t have the luxury of time to judge everyone that exists on earth.  

7 Verses About the Book of Life in the Bible

1. “And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books.” (Revelation 20:12)

2. “…Ten thousand times ten thousand stood before Him. The court was seated, and the books were opened.” (Daniel 7:10)

3. “He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life; but I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels.” (Revelation 3:5)

4. “The beast that you saw was, and is not, and will ascend out of the bottomless pit and go to perdition. And those who dwell on the earth will marvel, whose names are not written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world, when they see the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.” (Revelation 17:8)

5. “All who dwell on the earth will worship him (beast), whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.” (Revelation 13:8)

6. “But there shall by no means enter it anything that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.” (Revelation 21:27)

7. “Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven.” (Luke 10:20)

How Your Name Can be Written in the Book of Life

The following points are true because I am a living witness of the Salvation of the LORD:

1. Self-Realization: Sit down and tell yourself the truth that you need to abandon worldliness, sins and things of the devil. Manifest your power of choice to follow Jesus Christ.

2. Study the Bible: Read the instructions of the LORD and not the church doctrines. This will open your eyes to see your mistakes, sins and wrong doings.

3. Genuine Repentance: Accept Jesus Christ as your Saviour. Confess all your sins and stay away from them. Obey the instructions of Jesus Christ in the Bible daily. Don’t be a lukewarm Christian.

4. Fellowship with the LORD: Don’t care about the church politics that can hurt you but spend ample time in your privacy with the LORD by praising, worshiping and praying to HIM in spirit and truth.

5. Pass the Test: GOD cannot be cheated. Don’t serve HIM because of the things you want to get from HIM.

I, the LORD, search the heart, I test the mind, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.” (Jeremiah 17:10)

GOD cannot be enticed so don’t listen to those church leaders who tell you to bring all your money to them. Your spiritual fruit is the determining factor.

 Can a Name Be Erased from the Book of Life?

Book of Life in the Bible is mentioned as a record of all those who will inherit eternal life. However, it is also mentioned that a person’s name can be removed from the Book of Life if they have sinned against God.

And the LORD said to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against Me, I will blot him out of My book.” (Exodus 32:33)

So, don’t be deceived by doctrine of eternal security. If you accept Jesus Christ as your saviour and you keep committing sins deliberately then your name can’t be written in the Book of Life.

 

Anyone whose name is not in the Book of Life shall be cast into lake of fire for eternal punishment. Please I appeal to you to give your life to Jesus Christ and live a ‘hot’ Christian life through the counsel of the Holy Spirit.

The level of abomination in the world and the church is very high this is not an excuse for you to live a lukewarm lifestyle. Stay firm in GOD’s Holiness!
