THEME : THE WONDERS OF NEW CREATION
Memorise:
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
Read : John 3:1-5
1 THERE was a man of the Pharisees, named
Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:
2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto
him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come
from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou
doest, except God be with him.
3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I
say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot
see the kingdom of God.
4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born
when he is old? can he enter the second time into his
mother's womb, and be born?
5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he
cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR : ISAIAH 12-14 and ACTS 4:1-22
Message
The Almighty God is the Chief Planner, the Architect
and the Builder per excellence.
Before the universe
was put together, God planned it. No man is in this
world by accident. He told Jeremiah that before He
formed him, He knew him ( Jeremiah 1:4-5 ). In the
beginning, God had beautiful plans for His creation, but
along the line, sin distorted His plans for the universe
and particularly for the human race. But God, being
the Almighty, decided in His Infinite mercy to restore
His distorted creation.
This is why in Jeremiah
18:1-4, we read an interesting story of a potter and
his clay vessel which got damage in the process of
being worked. The potter made up his mind to start
all over again.
I prophecy that God's Original purpose
for your life which the enemies have tampered with
shall be restored today in Jesus' Name.
Paul the sinner who later became a saintly apostle of
Jesus Christ is one example of a person who
experienced the wonders of new creation. In his
testimony in 1 Timothy 1:15, he wrote that he was the
chief sinners.
In 2 Corinthians 5:17, he summed up
the wonders of new creation saying:
" Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new
creature: old things are passed away; behold, all
things are become new."
In our scripture reading today, Jesus Christ told
Nicodemus that he must be born-again in order to
see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus then asked
Jesus in John 3:4 that :
"....Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be
born when he is old? can he enter the second time
into his mother's womb, and be born?"
Jesus replied that it is possible to become a new
creation by water and the spirit of God. All these are
mysteries and pointers to the wonders of new
creation.
For you to experience these wonders, you
must surrender your total life to Him who is able to
recreate and restore beautiful plans that have been
distorted by the evil one.
The Bible in Acts 3:19 says:
"Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your
sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing
shall come from the presence of the Lord;"
I pray that you will experience the wonders of new
creation in all spheres of your life in Jesus' Name.
Prayer Point :
Father, whatever beautiful plans you have for my life
that the enemies have distorted, please restore in
Jesus' Name.
Good morning sir/ma.
Do have a glorious week a head in Jesus name.
Shalom!
