How to understand your lifestyle as a new creation?
Are you a new creation? Are you living the new life?
How does the transformation from darkness to light apply in our lives?
- Politics & Purpose
We become citizens of heaven. A new and higher standard (highest) applies to us. We are no more of this world. The only politics (governance) we are interested is of heaven. We live for God each day, the moment we are born again. - Preservation
The precious blood of Jesus cleanses us not only from sin but also heals our sicknesses too. No more rely on medicines for healing. We apply the blood of Jesus by faith in prayer. - Provision (food, clothing and shelter)
Food isn’t just for the body, but we live by every word that comes from the mouth of God for the spirit and soul to be well-fed. As we keep ourselves away from the fashions of this world we put on the garments of salvation, righteousness, etc. we may not have a home to cal our own on earth, but God provides a place to stay when we lean on Him alone. He prepares a home for us in the heavens. - Protection
So many dangers lurk around us daily - man, animals, vehicles, etc. It is God alone who truly protects us. God takes care of us wherever we are.
Are you a new creation?
To be seen when Jesus comes, we are called to live the standard we have already been prepared for. Everything we need for our spiritual life is provided for by God. God not only provides for spiritual growth, He makes sure as we seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness daily, He adds all essentials for earth.
“For we are His workmanship [His own master work, a work of art], created in Christ Jesus [reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, ready to be used] for good works, which God prepared [for us] beforehand [taking paths which He set], so that we would walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us].” Ephesians 2:10
Maranatha, Praise God and Amen!
