Purposed to Be Like Jesus

“For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.”

ROMANS 8:29-30

Ponder This

God has a Son He loves so much. He said, “I’m going to make a lot more like Him. I’m going to make a family in His image, and I have determined they’re going to be like Jesus.” This is the purpose of every Christ follower. When you are saved, your life changes. Now you have a new purpose: to be like Jesus.

And Paul spoke of these things in the past tense. Verse 30 says, “Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.” Now wait a minute. I thought you said the glory that will be revealed. Yes, but God says, “It’s as good as done. In my mind, in my heart, I don’t speak of it as something that’s going to happen. It is done. It is finished.” God has predestined it. And what has been decreed in Heaven cannot be annulled by Hell: it is done.

God sent His Son, the Lord Jesus, to be your sin-bearer, and Jesus has taken your sin to the cross. He’s your substitute. Your sin debt has been paid by the precious blood of Jesus Christ. When you believe this, your life is changed, and you have a new purpose: to be more like Him and to lead others to do the same.

  • Where has your life started to look more like Jesus as you’ve followed Him?
  • What are some things that make it challenging to become more like Jesus?

Encourage another believer in the ways you have seen him or her look more like Jesus.
