Nothing Old
He who sat on the throne said, "Behold, I make all things new."
~ Revelation 21:5
"All things need making new, for they are sadly battered and worn by sin. But no one can make all things new except God, who made them at the first. Our Lord Jesus has undertaken the task, and He is fully competent for the performance of it. Already He has commenced His labor, and for centuries He has persevered in making new the hearts of men. And there shall come a day when the body shall be made new and raised like unto His glorious body.
What a joy to belong to a Kingdom where everything is being made new! We are not dying out: we are hastening on to a more glorious life. Despite the opposition of the powers of evil, our glorious Lord Jesus is accomplishing His purpose and making us, and all about us, "new," and as full of beauty as when they first came from the hand of the Lord." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
Please pray this prayer with me this morning. Our Father who art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done on Earth, as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. Forgive us of all our sins, our debts, and our trespasses against You and man, as we forgive those who are indebted to us, and those who have trespassed against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from all evil:for Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Honor, and the Glory, forever. It is in Christ Jesus' Precious Name, Amen!
