Romans 12:2–"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."
Not much needs to be said about this verse. It's fairly self explanatory, really. The point is that by the renewal of your mind, that is, by reading the Scriptures and applying them by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, we will be able to test and to discern what is the right will of God. It is as a much a gift as it is a practice, our effort works in concert with His presence so that we would be transformed into the image and likeness of the Son, Jesus. This is the goal and aim for every Christian. Let us then pray that we would be diligent in the renewal of our mind, actively pursuing that which is righteous, holy, and right!
Amen.
