Day 8 – A Heart Remodeled – with Scripture and Prayer – By Hollee Stanton
Scripture: Philippians 1:6; Ephesians 2:10; Matthew 28:19–20
Devotional: Did you know that your physical heart is capable of literally remodeling itself? Motivated to keep you alive and functioning, the human heart can adjust its structure, grow new electrical pathways, and even shift slightly in its position—all so it can do its job more effectively.
In a far more profound way, when we surrender our lives to Christ, He begins remodeling our spiritual hearts.
Through the ongoing process of sanctification, God changes us from the inside out. He reshapes our desires, strengthens us in areas of weakness, and removes what no longer glorifies Him. As Philippians 1:6 reminds us:
“He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”
This spiritual remodeling isn’t just for our benefit—it’s for His purposes. As Ephesians 2:10 says:
“For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”
God not only transforms us, but also calls us to walk in the good works He’s planned—together, as one body.
Through the Holy Spirit, He connects us to fellow believers for support and encouragement. He shapes us into disciple-makers, inviting us to live out the Great Commission in Matthew 28:19–20:
“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations… teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
This divine heart renovation continues for a lifetime, until He calls us home. So, the next time someone asks if you’ve considered remodeling, don’t miss the chance to share about the Ultimate Contractor—Jesus—who is doing a transforming work in your heart that lasts forever.
Prayer: Lord Jesus, thank You for beginning a good work in me. I surrender my heart to You—again and again—as You reshape me into Your image. Remove what doesn’t honor You, and build in me what will reflect Your glory. Help me to walk in the good works You’ve prepared and to faithfully carry out the mission You’ve entrusted to all believers. Remind me daily that I am not alone in this process—that Your Spirit is with me, guiding and strengthening me. Remodel my heart, Lord, until the day You bring me home. In Your name, Amen.
