A NEW CREATION
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
Main text: 2 COR. 5:17-21
When you’re born again, you are a brand new baby; a new person. You have no spiritual past at all. Satan has nothing on you. If there is anything that’s not of God in your life—something that hurts, binds or limits you—rebuke it and it’ll be gone. They are old things that have passed away. The failures, sickness, poverty, and defeats of the past are all gone. God says so. Therefore, you must learn how to live your new life just as a newborn baby must learn to do certain things in this world.
You have a new life in Christ, eternal life and this life destroys sickness and disease, poverty and failure even death because it’s the life of God. You may say, “But I still feel the pain or effect of sickness or disease in my body, even though I’m born again”; refuse to fear. Rather, keep declaring, “I have a new life, and it’s the Christ-life; it destroys all forms of sickness and disease from my body.” Say it out loud every day. Keep speaking out your faith like that, trusting what God has said: He’s called you to glory and virtue, not to poverty, sickness or death.
You have a new name, a new status in Christ. You have been redeemed and freed from the bondage of Satan and sin (Romans 8: 2). God has “…reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ….” Reconciliation means you are no longer God’s enemies; you’ve been accepted in the beloved. It also means your life must be the true reflection of God’s image and likeness from now on. Whenever you look at any area of your life; maybe your health, your finance or career and it does not reconcile with what the word say, reject it in the name of Jesus. Live with this consciousness, and there’ll be no room for poverty, defeat, failure or sickness in your life. Say: I am a reflection of God’s glory!
Prayer for today
I walk in newness of life, living out the glorious life of Christ predestined for me from the foundation of the world. I’m chosen, royal, peculiar, excellent, and full of glory. I walk in victory and dominion today and always in Jesus name
