“In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;” 2 Timothy 2:25 

Learn a new word: ‘transform’. Always remember that with God’s word, you have the ability to transform, you can transform out of that situation that seems like a dead end. As a new creature in Christ Jesus, one of the new and uncommon things you can do is change states, and it is a glorious and permanent change. 
“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.”  2 Corinthians 3:18 
The word translated change actually should be rendered metamorphose, it isn’t just the caterpillar that can un-dergo metamorphosis and transform to a butterfly, the Christian can too.
Remarkably, caterpillars don’t fly, they are small, slimy and lazy, but when they undergo metamorphosis, they become beautiful butterflies. We have never heard of a butterfly failing and becoming a caterpillar, it never hap-pens, irrespective of how much the butterfly messes up, it can’t go back to being a caterpillar, it is a butterfly and will always be one, giving us an idea about metamor-phosis- when you change state, you can’t go back, no regress for the transformed Christian, that old level of productivity, results and knowledge are gone and gone forever, you begin to operate with new abilities in this new level, till you transform again and the glorious life continues!
