The New You
2 Corinthians 5:17
” Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation, old things have passed away, and behold all things have become new“.
As we walk in the Spirit ( which means walk in Christ) we are walking as a new creation in Jesus. That word creation means the original formation. When God looks at us now all he sees is the Original You, that he inteneded from the beginning of creation!
One question that you might ask yourself is. How can I change and be like Jesus? Well I am glad that you asked yourself that question. Because the truth is we cannot change , but we must receive the Great Exchange!
The Great Exchange is found in 2 Corinthians 5:21:
Old Things Exchange (Christ ) New Things
Worry…….. …..———————–> …..Peace
Poverty………..———————–>……Prosperity
Sickness……….————————>…..Health
Sadness……….————————->…..Joy of the Lord
Fears………….————————–>…..Power,Love, Sound Mind
Hatred……….—————————>…..LOVE
When opposition comes knocking at your door, turn it into an opportunity and take it through the Great Exchange of your mind which is in Christ Jesus. And always remember where you have came from in life before Christ, but always keep a Vision of where you are going in Christ. Your future is Bright in him!!
