“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.”
II Corinthians 5:17
When you give your life to be a follower of Jesus you are then in Christ. You become a new person by the power of the Holy Spirit. The old life is gone and a new life in Christ has begun! All has become new and your life is now about bringing glory to God! Praise the Lord…God makes us new in Christ!
Chew on that today!

“Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful.”
Luke 6:36
We have been shown immeasurable mercy by God as followers of Jesus. We deserve hell but by the mercy and blood of Jesus receive unending mercy. God tells us to show the same mercy to others! Stop right now and extend the mercy God has shown you to the one whom you need to give it too!!!

“But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.”
II Thessalonians 3:3
Be thankful today that you follow a Lord who is faithful! He keeps guard over us! Think about that as you walk through this day! Thank you Jesus!

“Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name,”
Philippians 2:9
Jesus is above all! His name should held in the highest regard. Remember one day ALL will bow before Him and give Him the glory and honor He is due. Respect and honor the name and person of Jesus our Lord.

“So teach us to number our days, That we may gain a heart of wisdom.”
Psalms 90:12
We have only so many days to live. We must gain wisdom by the Word of God and the Holy Spirit. We use that wisdom to glorify God as we were made to do. Preparing to live in eternity with the God who loves us.
Are you numbering your days and making the most of them for God’s glory?

“So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”
Romans 10:17
One of the reasons we need to know what God’s Word says is so we can share it with others. For God says for one to gain Salvation he must hear the Word so he can then put his faith in Jesus. It is a must for one to be saved!
So let us ask our selves…do we know the Word and can we adequately share it with others?
