“FROM NOW ON, we live our lives in a manner CONSISTENT with our CONFIDENT BELIEF in God’s promises” FAITH is a MADE UP MIND! And the righteous are commanded to live by faith. Remember, Christ in me the hope of glory.

In John’s first epistle he tells us, “FOR THIS PURPOSE the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.” John 10:10 (NKJV) “…I HAVE COME that they may have LIFE, and that they may have it more abundantly.” We see all these reasons Jesus came for us, but in Hebrews it makes it very clear, from our side of it, anyone who wants to go to Him, MUST BELIEVE that He is. Not only that, but He also rewards those who diligently seek Him.

Any disciple that’s walked with the Lord any length of time knows Romans 1, That the GOSPEL of Christ is the power of God to salvation for everyone who BELIEVES. For in the GOSPEL the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; AS IT IS WRITTEN, “The just shall live by faith.” GOSPEL— Gr. Euangelion, and what’s interesting about this Greek word is that outside of NT writings, this word was really used because it insinuates, “too good to be true news”

NEW CREATION— (Gr. Kainos) unprecedented— superior, unequaled, extraordinary, outstanding, exceptional, remarkable Ephesians 2, “And you HE MADE ALIVE, who were dead in trespasses and sins. Even when we were dead in trespasses, He made us ALIVE TOGETHER with Christ. And raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, For BY GRACE you have been saved THROUGH FAITH, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” BY GRACE — THROUGH FAITH

One reason is some of us don’t read the instructions. It’s real simple: read the manual (the Bible). Joshua 1:8 (NKJV) “This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.

He has given us the ministry of reconciliation. He has made us ambassadors. We are New Creations. And the same grace that changed how the Father sees us has to change how we see one another. So when prodigals come home, let’s make sure they encounter the Father in us, not the older brother. Because New Creations don't just receive restoration. New Creations have been given a ministry of reconciliation.

2 Corinthians 5:7 (AMP) “We walk by faith, not by sight, LIVING OUR LIVES in a manner CONSISTENT with our CONFIDENT BELIEF in God’s promises” Hebrews 11:1 (paraphrase) FAITH is the assurance of THINGS, we hope for FAITH is the proof of THINGS we do not see FAITH perceives as REAL FACT what is not revealed to the senses Think about it, does God actually expect us to live our lives according to the promises He’s left us? To live outside this natural realm? To govern our lives in accordance with His Word?

John 6:38 (NKJV) “For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but THE WILL OF HIM WHO SENT ME.” Like Peter, as long as I’m here I’m going to remind you of these truths, we cannot follow Jesus and disregard how many people received healing according to their faith.

NEW CREATION isn’t something God does for us but in us. Christianity is 100% God made! Our responsibility is accepting it, then yielding to our new lives. 2 Corinthians 5:21 (NKJV) For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God IN HIM. (NLT) For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the OFFERING for our sin, so that we COULD BE MADE RIGHT with God through Christ. (MSG) IN CHRIST, God put the wrong on Him who never did anything wrong, so we could BE PUT RIGHT WITH GOD.

NEW CREATION— (Gr. Kainos) brand new, unprecedented and superior This is something God alone can do in us. This isn't just turning over a new leaf or getting your act together. NEW CREATION isn’t something God does for us but in us. MSG- Now we see that anyone united with the Messiah gets a fresh start and is created new. The old life is gone; a new life emerges! Look at it! All this comes from the God who settled the relationship between us and Him. In Ephesians, Paul tells us to put off the old man and put on the new man, who was created according to God, in righteousness and holiness. SPIRIT— our NEW CREATION SOUL— our will and emotions BODY— our earth vessel, God’s temple

John 20:30-31 (NKJV) And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book; but these are written THAT YOU MAY BELIEVE that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that BELIEVING you may have life in His name. John’s revelation from the Father is that “The Word” is in fact the self-existent God Himself.

Romans 6:3-4 (NLT) Have you forgotten that when we were joined with Christ Jesus in BAPTISM, we joined Him in His death? For we died and were buried with Christ by BAPTISM. And JUST AS Christ was raised from the dead by the glorious power of the Father, NOW WE ALSO MAY LIVE NEW LIVES. Just like Jesus was raised, so are we, called to live life like Him, and it all starts with each of us embracing our NEW CREATION. Baptism is this beautiful acknowledgment of The Father, The Son, Holy Spirit, and YOU

John 1:1 (NKJV) “In the beginning was the WORD, and the WORD was with God, and the WORD was God.” Remember, THE WORD OF GOD IS THE WILL OF GOD

THE WORD OF GOD IS THE WILL OF GOD Jesus is the WILL OF GOD on display in a human, born of the Spirit. So when we FOLLOW Jesus through the scriptures, He’s without question showing us what the Father’s will is. “If you’ve seen Me, you’ve seen the Father”
