Friday - A New Creation

II Corinthians 5:17-21 - " Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. 21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him."
Devotional: As we conclude our week, let's focus on the transformative power of being in Christ. Paul declares that if anyone is in Christ, they are a new creation. This isn't just about behavior modification - it's about a fundamental change in our spiritual DNA.

Spend some time reflecting on how Christ has changed you. What old things have passed away? What new things have come? If you're struggling to see change, ask God to reveal to you the ways He's been working in your life.

Remember, you're not who you used to be - you've been made new in Christ. Live today from that place of newness, embracing your identity as God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works.
