Our focus today is on the issue of self transformation. Change is constant but positive change is always difficult because it is like climbing up a lather.
Have you ever tried to change something about yourself but found it really hard?
Maybe you want to stop getting angry so quickly, start waking up earlier, or be kinder to others. You try and try, but after a few days, you go back to the old way. It can feel impossible!
But guess what?
Changing for the better—what we call Self Transformation—is easier when you follow the right steps. Let’s discover how God has already given us the secret to becoming the best version of ourselves!
What the Bible Says About Self Transformation
Did you know that God actually tells us how to change? The Bible says:
“Do not copy the way the world does things. Instead, let God change you inside by changing the way you think.” – Romans 12:2 (paraphrased)
This means that real change doesn’t start with actions—it starts with your thoughts! If you change how you think, the rest will follow.
The principle violated is found in the above scripture. The NIV translation of Romans 12:2 says;
Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.
One of the keywords in the above principle is the word “LET“. It implies that you are the hindrance to your own transformation.
The principle also reveals the principal worker of transformation. It says “LET GOD TRANSFORM YOU INTO A NEW PERSON”.
It didn’t say a doctor, psychiatrist, consultant, your dad or mom, the emphasis is God. He is the one that created you, He knows how to fix you. The good news is He already prepared you transformative medications which is mentioned below, even as you are reading this article.
Why Is Self Transformation So Hard?
A lot of people struggle to change because they try to do it all by themselves. They think if they just try harder, things will be different. But that’s not how it works!
The real reason change feels hard is because our minds are used to old habits. It’s like trying to ride a bike the wrong way for years, then suddenly learning the right way—it takes practice! But when we do it God’s way, it becomes much easier.
