2 Corinthians 3&4

Father, your gospel is veiled to those who are perishing. Their minds are blinded by the god of this age. They do not believe.

The veil is taken away in Christ. By your grace and call, I have turned to the Lord Jesus, and the veil is taken away. Now the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of you, Father, shines in me.

I behold as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, and I am transformed into the same image from glory to glory, by your Holy Spirit.

You give me the light of the knowledge of your very presence in me by the gift of your Holy Spirit. I have your spirit filling me like a treasure in a clay jar. It is obvious to me that this living, transforming power comes from you, Father, and not from me. The very life of Jesus is manifested in my mortal flesh.
