1 Chronicles 35-36, 2 Corinthians 3, Psalm 121
2 Corinthians 3: 17-18 (ESV)
“Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the
Lord is, there is freedom. And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory
of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory
to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.”
Paul reminds us in Verses 17 and 18 from 2 Corinthians 3
that we have the freedom to see the glory of God without a veil like Moses because
of presence of the Holy Spirit. We have that freedom because of Jesus Christ
who gave us the Holy Spirit through his resurrection. When we behold the image
of God, we are also being transformed by God into his same image because of the
Holy Spirit. Because of the grace of Jesus Christ, we do not have to do
anything because beholding the glory of God will transform us.
Believing in Jesus Christ gives us so much freedom because
of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit works like an intermediary between us and
God. Working with the Holy Spirit will transform us inside and out because of
the grace of Jesus Christ.
These verses also remind me of this song we sing at the church
which incorporates verse 17 –
Enjoy!
