All Things Have Become New

All Things Have Become New | KingdomNomics.com 2 Corinthians 5:17

“If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.” (2 Corinthians 5:17)
“Then He who sat on the throne said, ‘Behold, I make all things new.’ And He said to me, ‘Write, for these words are true and faithful.’” (Revelation 21:5, NKJV)
Truly, we serve a God who is always doing something new! The Bible teaches that when we are born of the Spirit of God we:
  • are qualified to share in the inheritance of the saints
  • are delivered from the power of the evil one
  • do not come into judgment
  • pass from death to eternal life
  • are transferred into a new paradigm of the kingdom of Jesus Christ in whom we have the forgiveness of sin
It is a new life!
However, God has not finished making all things new. The time is coming when the present earth and heavens will also pass away, and he will make a new heaven and earth.
This world is passing away; the rulers and wisdom of this age are coming to nothing. We must understand the importance of converting our perishable time, talent, and treasure into the imperishable values of the eternal world that will last forever.
God’s presence is renewing. The Holy Spirit changes our attitudes as we spend time in God’s Word. He intervenes in our life, giving us new opportunities to serve him and expand his kingdom. There are endless opportunities to be a part of his great plan for this world as we join him by submitting to the control of the Holy Spirit.

Talk to God

Father, help me to focus my attention on you and the new pursuits you want me to have. I gladly submit to the Holy Spirit. Help me to be sanctified, prepared for every good work you have planned for me. Amen.

Stay in Balance!

  Then Jesus said, “Let’s go off by ourselves to a quiet place and rest awhile.” He said this because there were so many people coming and going that Jesus and his apostles didn’t even have time to eat. Mark 6:31 Stay in Balance Everywhere Jesus went, He was healing people, teaching in the synagogues, pouring Himself into His disciples. People made constant demands on His time and energies. Imagine how He felt. As the Son of God, He had this incredible power, anointing, wisdom, so much to offer. Yet at times, when He was exhausted, He would go away from the crowds and get alone so He could be refreshed. Despite the pressing needs around Him, Jesus knew that He had to take care of His temple.  If the Son of God had to be alone and rest, if He couldn’t meet all the demands of the people around Him, why do we think we can go all the time and be everything for everyone? No matter how anointed, strong, smart, or gifted you are, you get depleted. Despite all the needs around you, yo...

Give Cheerfully!

        Give Cheerfully “Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”  (2 Corinthians 9:7) When giving is done with the right attitude, it can be a gateway for God to move in significant ways in our lives. It is important to remember that it is not the amount we give that matters so much as it is the attitude that characterizes our giving. God loves it when we give out of a cheerful and grateful heart. God’s loving of a cheerful giver results in God taking action in our lives. Scripture states unequivocally that God will make all spiritual and earthly blessing abound to us so we can multiply our efforts for the kingdom. This is why I believe giving provides a major gateway for God to work in our lives, we can expect God to visit us. Jesus will fellowship with the cheerful giver, and the Holy Spirit will impart life to out mortal bodies. When we weave a pattern of giving...
