ALL THINGS NEW II

Memorise:
And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord.  .. Psalm 40:3

Read:
Isaiah 43:18-22

Message

Today I'll be concluding my discussion on letting go of all the old things that can limit God from doing new things in your life. I pray that nothing will hinder the new things God has planned for you this year, in Jesus' name.

For 430 years, the children of Israel were in captivity in Egypt (Exodus 12:40), They were in bondage under Pharaoh and the Egyptians until one night when God decided to bring them out. God did a new thing and a nation was born in one day. God is not bound by time or any other limitations around us. He said in Jeremiah 32:27 that nothing is too hard for Him to do.

God can do new things in strange Ways that will cause men to marvel at His great wonders. It is in the realm of men that we say that there is nothing new; after all. Ecclesiastes 1:9 says that there is nothing new Under the sun. However, God dwells above the sun; He dwells in the heavens and does as He pleases (Psalm 115:3).

Now, when God says that He will make all things new, there are certain things He expects from a fellow who is about to enter into His newness, As I mentioned yesterday, God will not put new wine in old wineskins (Luke 5:37-39). Thus, if you are going to enter into the new things that God has in store for you this year, you must be prepared to reposition yourself.

The question, however, is how can you position yourself for the new things that He wants to do in your life? You can reposition yourself through persistent prayers. Jesus once told story of a widow who wanted a total turnaround in her life. For a long time, she has been tormented by her adversary, and she kept going to the judge for help. Her persistent visits eventually made the judge to arise and help her. Jesus told this story to emphasise the importance of persistent prayers in changing things (Luke 18:1-5). Prayer births new things or levels; It is like a pot in which new things are cooked before they are served.

Beloved, don't let the adversary keep you trapped in your old level. Cry unto God like the Isrealites, and He will surely do a new thing in your life(Exodus 3:7-8). Engage the power of prayer to enter into the new things that God has prepared for you and your family in this new year.

Bible In One Year:
Genesis 13-17

Hymn:
Blessed Assurance, Jesus Is Mine!

Prayer Point:
Father, please give me the grace to be persistent in prayer until I receive all the new things you have prepared for me and my family, in Jesus' name.

King James Version

Isaiah 43:18-22

Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. [19] Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. [20] The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen. [21] This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise. [22] But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob; but thou hast been weary of me, O Israel.
RCCG Hymn

Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!

  1. Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!
    Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!
    Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
    Born of His spirit, washed in His blood.

    2. This is my story, this is my song,
    Praising my Saviour all the day long;
    This is my story, this is my song,
    Praising my Saviour all the day long.


  2. Perfect submission, perfect delight.
    Visions of rapture now burst on my sight.
    Angels descending, bring from above
    Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.
  3. Perfect submission, all is at rest,
    I in my Saviour am happy and blest.
    Watching and waiting, looking above,
    Fill'd with His goodness, lost in His love.
