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 PAID MY DEBTS

MAIN TEXT: Romans 5:8-9
But God demonstrates His own love towards us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him.

John 19:30—So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished” and bowing His head, He gave up his spirit.

“He paid a debt he did not owe, I owed a debt I could not pay, I needed someone to wash my sins away, now I can sing a brand-new song amazing grace, Christ Jesus paid the debt that I could never pay”, goes the popular worship song. Jesus paid a debt that made man a captive in Satan’s hands. He completely made the payment and said, “it is finished” on the cross of Calvary.

For His stripes, He gave you health, for His pains He gave you joy, for His weakness you were made strong, for His being poor, He crowned you with wealth and riches and for His dying on the cross, He gave you access to everlasting life. Ephesians 1:7 says. “In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace”.

Christ already paid the price for you, instead of living in a world of fear and guilt, arise and enjoy the riches of His grace which is made sufficient for you. The debt to endless pain, sickness, and afflictions has been paid by Jesus Christ. Now, you are free indeed.

ENJOY THIS FREEDOM BY HAVING JESUS CHRIST LEAD YOU

PRAYER: I confess freedom from every fear, bondage, and afflictions that attack my life. I boldly declare my divine settlement in Jesus’name, Amen.
