Today's Scripture
Ephesians 4: 22-24
Throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception. Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes. Put on your new nature, created to be like God—truly righteous and holy.
Our old way of life before we believed in Christ is completely in the past. We should put it behind us like old clothes to be thrown away when we decide to accept Christ's gift of salvation.
Ephesians 2: 8-10 God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can't take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.
It is both a one time decision, as well as a daily continuos commitment. We are not to be driven by desire and impulse. We must put on the new nature, head in the new direction, and have the new way of thinking that the Holy Spirit gives.
Lord Jesus, we are so thankful to You! May we daily put on our new nature in You, Christ Jesus. The old is truly gone and we now clothe ourselves daily with You. In Your Name, Amen..
Praise God for Salvation!
Your sister in Christ,
April
