3 things you must do to change.
I am the way… = a journey or path.
You must get new directions to change.
- Your belief system has to fundamentally change.
You can’t quit smoking
Start working out
Eating better
Get a better job
Treat your wife better
etc…
By just simply trying harder. You must change your belief system to incorporate and strengthen your choice.
Find your directions in scripture… what does the bible say about the change you are wanting to make.
- You must absolutely see and believe how it will change your future.
John 14:5“Lord,” said Thomas, “we do not know where You are going, so how can we know the way?” 6Jesus answered, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
Truth - divine truth.
You must see your future as God sees it.
Finances - how does God see it?
Job?
Marriage?
Kids?
Health?
- Change your friends
The Apostle Paul before he became a follower of Jesus was a big deal. He had the ear of the powers that be, and he had a huge following, I am sure he had plenty in the Jewish circles who were and who wanted to be his friend… he was going places.
When He has his Damascus road transformation what did Jesus do? He got him away from everybody. He literally cloistered him away. He put him in a new environment, depending on new friends and on Gods voice.
You cannot change your behavior until you change your friends- period!
And in fact- its easy to change… but its not easy to change friends and that is why we don’t change. It’s not change itself it is the changing of the friends to make it stick that is so hard.
LIFE here implies that we not only change our friends but we change our friends who are living the life that Christ gives that will also help empower us to change
