Topic: Transformed to Produce Transformers.

Text: Matthew 10:1 [KJV] _"And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease."_

The reason God transformed you and made you a transformer is because He wants you to transform others and make them a Transformer.

In simpler words, you were helped to help others and make them helpers to others. Or you were blessed and made a blessing, so that you can bless others and make them a blessing to others. You were made rich so that you can make others rich. You were saved so that you can save others and make them a saviour to others.

God wants to transform the whole world, so He started by coming into this world as a Transformer. He picked 12-men (disciples) and made them Transformers and sent them to go out and pick others to transform them and train them into becoming a transformer also to others.

God has given you so many things, including his Powers with spiritual and physical gifts. He wants you to use them to transform others and make them become transformers to others.

A simpler way is to use money. God has given you money, so that you can give others money and show them how to make money on their own without depending on you so that they can have enough to give others and help them to also become a giver of money to others. _"Wealth Transformation"._

Everything you have was given to you for the purpose of using it to help others and make them capable of being a helper to others.

You were transformed to produce transformers.

Prayer:
Lord, make me a Transformer that can produce transformers. In Jesus name.

Memory Verse:
Philippians 4:9 [KJV] _"Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you."_

Topic: It is Spirits that Transforms. Part 1

Text: 1 Kings 22:20-23 [KJV]
[20] And the LORD said, Who shall persuade Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth-gilead? And one said on this manner, and another said on that manner.
[21] And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the LORD, and said, I will persuade him.
[22] And the LORD said unto him, Wherewith? And he said, I will go forth, and I will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Thou shalt persuade him, and prevail also: go forth, and do so.
[23] Now therefore, behold, the LORD hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these thy prophets, and the LORD hath spoken evil concerning thee.

Knowledge is the beginning of Transformation. To change a man, expose him to another knowledge. Teach him something. Speak to him.

However, there's a limit to the effectiveness of knowledge for transformation.

Some people are very stubborn, so giving them knowledge through any form of teaching or preaching won't change them. They know the right things to do but won't do them. Their addiction and bad attitude is unchangeable even by any form of counselors.

Some situations and environments are also stubborn and adamant to change.

So how do you change something or someone who refuses to let knowledge of any form of teachings or preachings to change him?

"You transform such a situation or person by sending spirits into them."

Spirits are stronger than knowledge (Wisdom of Man, Advice, Counsel, Books, etc). And they possess a higher level of knowledge.

Great drastic and sudden transformation of situations, environments/communities or people is done by spirits. Especially changes that are beyond teaching knowledge.

Most of the sudden changes in people's character for good or bad is often a result of a new spirit that was sent into them.
