Spiritual Growth

Conformed to Christ's Image

For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

Romans 8:29

· · ·

God's ultimate purpose is to shape us into the likeness of His Son.

Those whom He foreknew He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son. God's goal isn't merely our happiness but our Christlikeness. Every circumstance, trial, and blessing works toward this purpose—conforming us to Jesus's image. This is why spiritual growth matters—we're becoming like Christ. The process is guaranteed by God's sovereign plan.

Ask God to use today's circumstances to conform you more closely to the image of Christ.

Father, conform me to the image of Your Son. Use everything in my life to make me more like Jesus. Complete Your purpose in me. Amen.
