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.

INCREASE AND MULTIPLY

INCREASE AND MULTIPLY

Main Text: Genesis 1:28 – And God blessed them, and said unto them, Be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air and over everything that moveth upon the earth.

Isaiah 1:19 – “If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land”.

Beloved of God, when you hope in God and make him the foundation of all your expectations, the blessing of increase and multiplication will locate you, instead of being downcast, barren and depressed; you will increase and multiply in all the areas of your life.

God blessed us to increase and multiply. It is our covenant right to increase and multiply. Our God is a covenant keeping God. “My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips” (Psalm 89:34). Are you waiting patiently on the Lord for your increase and multiplication? He will remember you this season.

You are Heaven’s candidate, made in God’s image and likeness, so you will flourish in season and out of season Amen. Nobody can tamper with what God has promised to do in your life. This calls for truly looking for God, showing unreserved, uncompromising commitment unto God. You are to obey and serve God in totality. “If they will obey and serve ‘ME’ they will spend their days in prosperity and their years in pleasure” (Job 36:11).

EVERY INCREASE OF GOD DEMANDS THAT WE INCREASE OUR SERVICE AND GIVING TO HIM TOO

Prayer Point: Lord Jesus, increase and multiply me exceedingly as I obey you.
