THE WONDERS OF NEW CREATION.

MEMORISE : Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things
are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 17.

READ : JOHN 3 : 1 – 5.
1 THERE was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:
2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou
art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest,
except God be with him.
3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man
be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter
the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born?
5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water
and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR : ISAIAH 12 – 14 AND ACTS 4 : 1 – 22.

The Almighty God is the Chief Planner, the Architect and the Builder per
excellence. Before the universe was put together, God planned it. No man is in
this world by accident. He told Jeremiah that before He formed him, He knew him
( Jeremiah 1 : 4 – 5 ). In the beginning, God hd beautiful plans for His creation,
but along the line, sin distorted His plans for the universe and particularly for the
human race. But God, being the Almighty, decided in His Infinite mercy to restore
His distorted creation. This is why in Jeremiah 18 : 1 – 4, we read an interesting
story of a potter and his clay vessel which got damage in the process of being
worked. The potter made up his mind to start all over again. I prophecy that God’s
Original purpose for your life which the enemies have tampered with shall be
restored today in Jesus’ Name.

Paul the sinner who later became a saintly apostle of Jesus Christ is one example
of a person who experienced the wonders of new creation. In his testimony in 1
Timothy 1 : 15, he wrote that he was the chief sinners. In 2 Corinthians 5 : 17, he
summed up the wonders of new creation saying :
” Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed
away; behold, all things are become new.”
In our scripture reading today, Jesus Christ told Nicodemus that he must be
born-again in order to see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus then asked Jesus in
John 3 : 4 that :
“….Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he
enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born?”
Jesus replied that it is possible to become a new creation by water and the spirit
of God. All these are mysteries and pointers to the wonders of new creation. For
you to experience these wonders, you must surrender your total life to Him who is
able to recreate and restore beautiful plans that have been distorted by the evil
one. The Bible in Acts 3 : 19 says :
“Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when
the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;”
I pray that you will experience the wonders of new creation in all spheres of your
life in Jesus’ Name.

PRAYER POINT :
Father, whatever beautiful plans you have for my life that the enemies have
distorted, please restore in Jesus’Name.
