Hope of His
Glory Strengthening
the Innerman Some of us
are a little faint hearted when we see how we fall short of His Glory
because He is a Holy God. Also the
stresses and afflictions of this present age can weigh us down too. The following
are several scriptures I have placed together from different
translations to bring out the richness because no English translation
can bring out the fullness of the original Greek. You may call this a simple study and soak! Seek The
Lord’s presence as you read, for revelation. And if you
are not up to that for some reason – let these scriptures bring you Into a soft
touch of His Presence. He Loves You today. Do not be conformed to
this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that
you may discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect
will of God. Do not conform to the pattern of
this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you
will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good,
pleasing and perfect will. 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. Do not be conformed to this world, but be
transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may
discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and
perfect. Do not be conformed to this world, but be
transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to
discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God.
New
American Standard Bible And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. Weymouth
New Testament And do not follow the customs of the present age, but be transformed by the entire renewal of your minds, so that you may learn by experience what God's will is--that will which is good and beautiful and perfect. Don't be conformed to this world, but be
transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what
is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God. And be not conformed to this age, but
be transformed by the renewing of your mind, for your proving what is
the will of God -- the good, and acceptable, and perfect.
******** Ephesians
4:23 To be made new in the attitude of your minds; … 22 You were taught to put off
your former way of life, your old self, which is being corrupted by
its deceitful desires; 23 to be renewed in the spirit of your
minds; 24 and to put on the new self, created to be like God in
true righteousness and holiness.

planned for us long ago. For we are his workmanship, created in
Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we

in Jars of Clay …15All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is extending to more and more people may overflow in thanksgiving, to the glory of God. 16 Therefore we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, yet our inner self is being renewed day by day.17 For our light and temporary affliction is producing for us an eternal glory that far outweighs our troubles.… New
Living Translation That is why we never give up. Though our bodies are dying, our spirits are being renewed every day. King
James Bible For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. That's why we are not discouraged. No,
even if outwardly we are wearing out, inwardly we are being renewed
each and every day. Therefore we do not despair, but even if our
physical body is wearing away, our inner person is being renewed day
by day.

Future
Glory …23Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies. 24 For in this hope we were saved; but hopethat is seen is no hope at all.

in Jars of Clay …17For those things that afflict us are temporary and they are producing for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 1 So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. For our light and momentary troubles
are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them
all. For our present troubles are small and
won't last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly
outweighs them and will last forever! For this light momentary affliction is
preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison. For our light affliction, which is but for a
moment, works for us a far more exceeding and eternal
weight of glory; For our momentary light
affliction is producing for us an absolutely incomparable eternal
weight of glory. This light, temporary nature of our
suffering is producing for us an everlasting weight of glory, far
beyond any comparison. GOD'S
WORD® Translation Our suffering is light and temporary and is producing for us an eternal glory that is greater than anything we can imagine. 1 Corinthians 2:9 International

The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.… O taste and see that the
LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusts in him. TAGS: Inner Nature, God of Hope,
