TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!”
(2 Corinthians 5:17, NIV)
TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
As a believer in Jesus, you are a new creation. You have a new spirit and a new life! There may be “old” things in your life that you are trying to get rid of. Maybe you have old habits or addictions that you want to change. Remember today that the new has come. It’s a new year with new opportunities, and it’s time for you to be the new you. Let this be the year that you break old habits and addictions. Let this be the year that you move forward into a new life of victory. Let this be the year that you take hold of all the spiritual blessings the Lord has promised — peace, health, protection and victory.
Be encouraged today because no matter what is happening in your life right now, you have a chance for a new beginning. Choose to leave the old behind — leave behind old behaviors, old thinking, old words, and old mindsets and embrace the new by faith. Trust that He is leading you, and this year, declare His Word and embrace the blessings that He has prepared for you!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Heavenly Father, thank You for making me new. I choose today to leave behind the old life and ask that You empower me by Your spirit. Help me to understand Your plan and know the truth of Your Word that sets me free in Jesus’ name. Amen.
— Joel & Victoria Osteen
Amen
Let be so
J&V are the new breed of ‘old and new’! Manipulation of a dodgy holy book with modern motivational psychology. It’s an interesting approach, different from the direct colonisers method of bullying and subjugation- even using the holy book to justify slavery
thanks for the inspiring words. I pray that the Almight God grant me that I wish in the new year especially the new in Jesus’ name I pray Amen.
amen
Amen. Thank you for the word.
amen thank you .
Its only a fool who can deny such powerful teachings from the Word of God
Amen
Amen,thanx you have made my day!
ZAGGA! Whatever happened to curiosity, reason and logic. I am happy being a *** , till a viable explanation of GOD comes my way. I would rather follow EPICURUS more than 2000 years ago. ”Is god willing to prevent evil, but not able?Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both willing and able? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able or willing? Then why call him god? I suppose i have not rested my case!
You see or do so much evil because God created you with a free will. Doing evil is a matter of chioce just like doing what is Good. God will not come and force you to do what what is right, He gave you the dominion over the earth and everything in it including yourself. You can choose today to be in charge of your life and stop doing evil.
That’s futility speaking! A lost soul with its way to hell! Its only Jesus who will make your life realize the death of your life and the you shall realize your short coming to the knowledge of God.
With love,
Howard
