True transformation involves humility and a willingness to decrease so that Christ may increase. This verse, spoken by John the Baptist, expresses the heart of one who understands that Christ must be the center of everything. In our lives, transformation occurs as we relinquish our own desires, ambitions, and pride, allowing Christ to take His rightful place as Lord. This process requires self-denial and surrender, as we acknowledge that we are nothing apart from Christ. The more we decrease, the more Christ increases in us, shaping us into His image. True humility comes from recognizing that all glory and honor belong to God alone, and our role is to reflect His greatness, not our own. This transformation requires a daily decision to humble ourselves before God, putting His will above our own.
1 Peter 1:23

Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.

And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
