God is our Creator, Sustainer and Redeemer. Once He created heaven and earth, animals, plants, trees and finally He created man and woman. Remember our God is ever active. Though He created the whole universe in seven days, He takes several years to make a man whole. He breaks, melts, moulds, shapes and makes us walk in the newness of life. We are the clay and He is the potter. Allow Him to mould us into His image. In the Bible there is a beautiful picture of a new day in our life. "My beloved spoke, and said to me "Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away. For lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone. The flowers appear on the earth; the time of singing has come, and the voice of the turtle dove is heard in our land. The fig tree puts forth her green figs, and the vines with the tender grapes gives us a good smell, rise up, my love, my fair one and come away! O my dove, in the cliffs of the rock, in the secret places of the cliff, let me see your face, let me hear your voices; for your voice is sweet, and your face is lovely." Catch us the foxes, the little foxes that spoil the vines, for our vines have tender grapes. My beloved is mine, and I am his. He feeds his folk among the lilies. Until the day breaks and the shadow flee away, turn, my beloved, and be like a gazelle or a young stag upon the mountains of Bether(Song of Solomon 2:10-17).
Renewal of life is not available in a supermarket, beauty parlour not even in a university. The answer is always very simple. Newness of life is recieved through new birth from above, baptism in the water, and baptism in the Holy Spirit. In the words of Watchman Nee, the famous Chinese Christian leader "Sit, stand and walk" is the secret of a renewed life. Take time to sit with the Master Jesus Christ, stand against all tactics of the enemy Satan and the work, walk with God.
Prayer: Father, God, I yield myself to you, I beseech you to do a new thing in my life.
