BECOME A BETTER YOU

MAIN TEXT: 2 CORINTHIANS 6:17
“Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you”.

JEREMIAH 29:13 “And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.”

Beloved of God, for you to be really redeemed of the Lord, you must adopt a new way of living.
One thing that can come upon a new creature in Christ is the departure from curses to blessings.

Apostle Paul encourages us to be transformed rather than being conformed to this world of sin (Romans 12:1-2). The truth of the matter is that only those who are in Christ can experience the new things God promises us in His word.
“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature, old things are passed away, behold all things are become new (2 Corinthians 5:17).

When a person accepts Jesus as His or Her Lord and Saviour, such a person automatically become dead to the old life, every link with the old life is cut off. Every new creature in Christ submits to His Lordship.
From the point of rebirth, we begin to hunger for righteousness by pursuing purity, honesty, justice, love, humility and service to humanity. It starts from a new mind. You immediately begin to think differently from the old ways to such an extent that your new behavior and a better you may seem strange, even to you. This new life in Christ comes with the assurance of abundant life here on earth and even in heaven.

THE LIFE THAT IS TRANSFORMED BY CHRIST STANDS OUT

PRAYER: Father, as a new creature in Christ, please help me to always live according to your word in Jesus Name. Amen.

GOD KEEPS PROMISES

GOD KEEPS PROMISES

MAIN TEXT:  DEUTERONOMY 7:9

Know therefore that the Lord thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations.

DEUTERONOMY 7: 10

But those who hate him he will repay to their face by destruction: he will not be slow to repay to their face those who hate him.

God is sure to keep any promise(s) he makes because he is a covenant (promise) keeping God. He says that he honours his word more than his name.

God promised to give Adam a help meet, did he give him one? YES, God made Eve from Adam’s rib and gave her to Adam. God promised Abraham and his descendants a land flowing with milk and honey, when Israel sinned and were taken into captivity, God promised to cast out the nations that occupied the land that he promised Abraham and his descendants. He promised King Solomon a peaceful reign, God promised to send a messiah that will reconcile (justify) man with God and many other promises of God. Did God keep all these promises of his? YES he did and will always do.

If you want to experience God as the God that keep promises then, you must have absolute trust and believe in his word, be obedient to his commandments and have an unshakable love for him. If God has declared to you that this year is your year of DESTINY FULFILMENT and any other promise he has made to you, just believe and trust his words absolutely because he will do it.

GOD IS TOO FAITHFUL TO FAIL IN FULFILLING HIS PROMISE

 Prayer Point – Almighty God, deliver my blessings to me and let my testimony be announced in Jesus name.
