GOD DOES NOT CONFORM TO US

Sometimes we try and get God to do things for us by begging Him. But, with the understanding of who God is and His ways, we can come to know that we don't have to beg at all.  We don't have to try and get Him to conform to us, but if we want His will, we need to conform to Him.

— 3 John 2 Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in every way and [that your body] may keep well, even as [I know] your soul keeps well and prospers. AMPC

All we have to do to have His will happen in our lives is to prosper in our mind.  You can see from what we just read that it is already God's will for us to prosper (to have good success) and even that our body would keep well —and that would happen as we prosper in our minds.  How do we prosper in our minds? Conform to His mind—change our minds to think like He does.  

—Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His sight for you]. AMPC

Prospering and being well then happens as we change our minds to agree with God.  He already said you were healed, so be healed by thinking you are healed. He already said He would meet all your needs, you can do all things, you can talk to mountains, so do what He said you could do!  If it seems you can’t —then you have to take captive that I can't thought, and make it an I can thought.  Prosper your thoughts with His thoughts and eliminate any thought that is not of Him.

—2 Corinthians 10:5 [Inasmuch as we] refute arguments and theories and reasonings and every proud and lofty thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God; and we lead every thought and purpose away captive into the obedience of Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One), AMPC

 Knowing this truth now, you can you know you don't have to try and get God to do something. You don't have to try and get Him to conform to you, and your way without Him. But, what you do have to do is conform to His way by changing your thinking to be as His. It is your thinking you have to change, not His thinking. 

Knowing God's will and how to live in His Kingdom is the key to you prospering in every way —and our body keeping well!

Conform to His will and think it—instead of the situation you are in. Change your mind—conform to Him, and you will change your life.
