(09/07/2001) a new day


Hello prayer warriors, P.S. I am having some problems with my email. If you have received this twice, please ignore this one. Thanks. 1. Prayer note: a new day Many people carry a very heavy baggage on or about them. Many times it may not even be the baggage of sin. It is the baggage called our past. [2 Corinthians 5:17] Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. I never truly understood the impact of this until I realised that I need to put my past behind me. It is not forgetting the past, but it is refusing to hold on to it or to hold on to the thoughts or emotions that come from our past. It is refusing to dwell in it and understanding my new identity in Christ. It is not allowing anyone or anything to rob me of the joy of the new things that God has in store for me. It is realising that there is only one way to move and that is to move forward. With God, we can start on a clean slate. It is like God has given us a blank sheet of paper and saying that old things are gone, all things have become new. Now, chart your course. Many of us have this clean sheet of paper in front of us but we don't realise it. The sheet of paper looks tainted only in our minds. [2 Corinthians 10:4-5] 4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; If we dwell in something long enough, it will become a stronghold in our lives. These strongholds are imaginations and things that exalt themselves against the knowledge of God. God has said that old things are passed away, all things become new. Believe it because it is in the Word and start living it. Stop dwelling in your past and start looking forward. Live a new life in Christ every day and you will live less in the flesh. Realise that each day is a new day and each day, God has given you and me a new beginning. 2. Special note: i. Pray for me -- waihun Prayer warriors, please pray for me. I have recently gone for a church retreat and my pastor was telling us the importance of being transparent. I have been feeling a little tired and weary lately and have found difficulty replying to your emails or even attending to new prayer emails. So, if I haven't replied to some of your emails, please forgive me. Please pray. Thanks in advance. ii.
