Gene’s Daily Scriptural Postings

06 July 2024

Those who choose to believe and follow Jesus become brand new creatures. This new makeover is so thorough that our very nature has been made new. So much so, Jesus said it was like being born all over again.

Sadly, far too many who choose to believe in Jesus never are discipled into their new life. They don’t know the very righteousness of God they now cary in Christ. One of the many problems this lack of revelation causes is that the weight of guilt and shame often creeps back in on them. We were never designed to carry this weight, which is why Jesus took it for us.

Fortunately, from God's perspective it's like everything bad you’ve ever done has been washed away. This includes the stuff before you were born again, as well as everything you’ve done since that moment. God doesn't remember any of that bad stuff you did ever happening. It all stems from knowing Jesus.

What mistakes from your past are you allowing to hold you back from moving forward into your destiny? It’s time to let those past mistakes go, trust God, and look to your future.

­	Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new. — 2 Corinthians 5:17 (WEB)
