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, you have to

Don’t Water it Down!

  And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature… (2 Peter 1:4) Don’t Water it Down All of us have dreams we’re believing for, but too often we get discouraged and quit believing for the fullness of what’s in our heart. It’s easy to water down what God promised us. “I don’t like this job, but it’s good enough.” “I was believing for a house, but this apartment is okay.” “I was hoping to get well, but I’ve learned to live with this sickness.” If you’re going to become all you were created to be, you have to keep a fire in your spirit that says, “I refuse to settle for less than what God promised.” You’re not going to be talked out of it, you’re not going to water it down, and you’re not going to let good enough be good enough. It may be more difficult and taking longer than you thought, but what God promised you is still on the way—not a watered-down version, not a make-do promotion,

Experience SON POWER!

                    Experience SON POWER I love to watch the clouds in the sky during the day and in the brightness of the moon at night. Watching those clouds move is an illustration to me of how God is always on the move. He is continually working to change our circumstances and is always available to intervene in the affairs of mankind. Sometimes the clouds appear to be still, but if I watch long enough, I see their changing shapes, I notice them moving ever so slightly and silently. I would not even be aware of that movement if I was not focused intently on them. God is like this so much of the time. He is on the move in our circumstances.  The landscape of our lives is constantly changing, and God is there, directing and guiding, even when we are unaware.  The book of Psalms says it well, “Your road led through the sea, your pathway through the mighty waters—a pathway no one knew was there!” (Psalm 77:19). When I coined the word  Kingdom of God  I was at the beginning of my own j
