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.

HE PRESERVES ME

HE PRESERVES ME

Main Text: Isaiah 43:2- When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sineep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.

Psalm 23:4

Even though I walk through the darkest vale, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

 A song writer sang a song to our God, appreciating his goodness and faithfulness towards us. The song goes like this, “The steadfast love of the Lord never cease. Your mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning, new every morning; great is your faithfulness, O Lord, great is your faithfulness “!”

The walk through the darkest valley does not take away the presence of God with us. God is ever with us no matter the challenge and battles. There may be fire and floods but they will never sweep you away because the presence of God with you, is too faithful to disappoint you. God has taken up the duty of preserving His children all the time. In darkest valley, His eyes are still fixed upon His own to guard and guide.

Are you experiencing strange things in your life now and it seems that God is not there? Fear not, do not lose hope. You may think that it is already late, do not worry the God of miracles is a specialist in restoring dead and forsaken issues of life.

YOUR SOUL IS IN GOD’S HANDS AND NOT IN SATAN’S HANDS

Prayer Point: In Jesus name, I rebuke every storms and floods against me and I  command my deliverance. Amen.
