Living the Transformed Life!

What do you mean?

I'm soaring to live thee transformed life. What do I mean by the transformed life? Transformed by the third in the trinity, the Holy Spirit. The same Holy Spirit that transformed, Saul to the author of the Pauline Epistles, Apostle Paul, another transformation of the Holy Spirit is when the Holy Spirit transformed the Samaritans.


Acts the Eighth Chapter fifth through the seventeenth verse, talks about the transformation of the Samaritans. The story starts of telling How Phillip went down to Samaria to preach the word. I would like to relate the word to your "favorite food" isn't your favorite food good to you. It blesses your soul. Well, anyways as Phillip preached the word, it became very good to the Samaritans, so this is like you chewing your favorite food. So they became so persuaded that they received Jesus that day, Salvation through Jesus Christ, is the main focus of the bible. However, they were baptized and Saved but were not filled with the Holy Spirit. The filling of the Holy Spirit, happened few days later by the laying of the hands of Peter and John. That's the story I wanted to share.

We all need the Holy Spirit, its good to be saved, receiving salvation through Jesus, but as a believer we should all desire to be empowered by the Holy Spirit (Words of my Mother, Pastor Nikki Reid.) Why do we need the Holy Spirit? The Holy Spirit will transform our living, it the agent in the santification process. I was always taught about God, the father and Jesus, the son, the one who died on the cross for my sins, but never really took time to explain the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit is more than what you feel when you're praise dancing, or running. But when you're empowered with the Spirit you feel that way ALL THE TIME!
