Today‘s Inspiration: "Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life." Romans 6:4 NKJV. Our spiritual life is grown through a journey, process and working of Holy Spirit within us, not just an encounter, experience or an event. Spiritual growth is a newness of life, not living in the past sinful, carnal or worldly ways but living in Christ through His righteousness, holiness and kingdom. It’s a daily walk with God, just like Enoch.
In 2024, Holy Spirit is exposing our old self to be put off so that the new man can arise and shine for the glory of God. It’s like new wine that has to be put into new wineskins or it will burst. Sowing in flesh will reap corruption. What is your reflection in your devotion with God? Do you write down where you need to change to be more like Christ? Sowing in the Spirit is to surrender our old ways to the Cross, and crucifying them so that we may resurrect with Christ in a new living way. If indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus: that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness. Ephesians 4:21-24. Time to walk in the Newness for 2024.
Prayer: O Lord my God, give me clean hands and a pure heart. Shine your light in my soul and guide me with your Word for it is the lamp to my feet and light to my path. If there are any offences to you, reveal deeply within me that I may change and transform into your likeness and newness for me. Lead me into your path righteousness and may I bear fruition in the Spirit daily, in Jesus' Name, Amen.
