Thursday: A New Creation — 5 Comments

  1. We need to Ask God daily to create in us a new heart. We next Believe He is our Great Physician who can take a stony spirit out of us and replace it with a meek and gentle spirit, just as easily as He can create a tree, bird, or lion. Last we Claim His promises. Psalms 48:14, Isaiah 55. Ez 11:19,
    Ps.91:1, Ps. 51:10....

  2. Today's lesson brings to view in my mind the fact of God's wonderful creative power which reveals the power of His Word. The issue of theistic evolution has also been brought out in such a manner as to reveal that this is inconsistent with the creation story. If we believe that God created us using evolutionary processes then we might as well believe that it is NOT possible for God to create new hearts within us and renew a right spirit within us UNLESS this happens gradually. In other words then the question becomes at what point does the new heart become complete? Will it take a day, a week, a month, a year or perhaps the entire lifetime? I believe in God's creative power wherewith He spoke and it stood fast and commanded and it stood firm. This is the same power He uses to restore healing where health has been lost and to recreate pure hearts within. Thank God for this power which He is so willing to exercise on behalf of those who put their faith and trust in Him. Blessings!

    • Your encouraging comments remind me of our need to look to Jesus for full salvation and of His ability to do more than we can imagine, more quickly than we might think possible. I had not seen the parallel of evolution with a gradual "salvation". This reminds me of those who quote "sanctification is the work of a lifetime", as if that meant a hope to overcome sin someday before we die. God can give complete victory now, if we will completely submit to Him now. On the other hand we will always have room to grow in grace, to become stronger in the Lord and more reflect His beautiful character.

  3. Its very encouraging to hear such words of Christ while we are living in the evolutionary world. all we need is God's intervention to do what He is capable of and what he is known of (recreating) as the potter does in Jer 18. all we need is a clean new heart and steadfast spirit. also the new mind to survive the doctrines of this world

  4. I still think that when God brought death after the first sin it was and is still good for us. Firstly death stops us from sinning more and more. Death brings pain to an end suppose someone was suffering from cancer that is a great relief. Thank God He always gives us the best all the time.
