“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new“. (2 Cor 5:17 KJV).

Only in Jesus Christ can we encounter new and transformed lives.
We cannot change ourselves, we cannot save ourselves. We cannot change or transform others either. 

We all depend on God Almighty through his son Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit, to change and transform us into his divine nature.
When we are made new through Jesus Christ,  we begin a new walk with God. Trusting and believing in him completely.

The moment we start thinking that we are sufficient on our own, that becomes a recipe for failure and an open door for the enemy to step in and wreak havoc.

It is not surprising that Paul wrote in Phil  4:13, “I can do all things through Christ who straightens me.” Not through my own strength and abilities.

May God increase our faith to trust him more in Jesus’ mighty name. Amen!
