Spiritual Attack: Conformity
Ask the Lord for His perspective on the situations you face and to see the people you meet though His eyes.
We are constantly being encouraged to conform to the pattern of the world around us and adopt its values. This happens through advertising, social media, workplace culture, the films we watch, and the books we read.
Paul explains that the purpose of renewing our minds is to enable us ‘...to test and approve what God's will is – his good, pleasing and perfect will’. (Rom. 12:2 NIV)
As our minds become renewed, we are more attuned to God’s thoughts, viewing situations and people from His perspective. By contrast an unrenewed mind, conformed to the world’s thinking, will have difficulty discerning God’s will.

About this Plan
Whether confronted with difficult life events or extended periods of pressure, resilience helps us to emerge stronger, wiser, and with a deeper faith. Yet such resilience is not automatic – it involves behaviours, thoughts, and actions that are learned and practised over time. This 40-day prayer journey helps us develop practices to grow that resilience.
