Morning Devotional For Wednesday 27th June - Edoman - 06-27-2018
RHAPSODY OF REALITIES
WEDNESDAY, 27TH JUNE.
A NEW YOU.
Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. For he that is dead is freed from sin (Romans 6:6-7).
The Bible says, “But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved
And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus” (Ephesians 2:4-6). When Jesus died, we died with Him. When He was buried, we were buried with Him. When God raised Him from the dead, we were raised together with Him. We were in Him in His death, burial, and resurrection.
Romans 4:24-25 says, “But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; Who was delivered for our offences, and was RAISED AGAIN FOR OUR JUSTIFICATION.” We weren’t justified because He died; we were justified because He was raised from the dead. He was raised from the dead, a new man; He was born again.
Jesus heads up the new creation. He came up with a new life and so, the Bible says, “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new” (2 Corinthians 5:17). This new creation has no past; there’s no sin in him. His resurrection gave you a brand new life. You’re not the man that sinned; that’s the “old man,” and he’s dead. Hallelujah!
A new YOU was born at the resurrection: “Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life” (Romans 6:4). Blessed be God!
PRAYER
Blessed Lord, thank you for the life I’ve received through the resurrection of Jesus Christ. As Christ rose from the dead, I came alive with Him; therefore, I walk in this newness of life. I reign and rule in life today as a king, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
FURTHER STUDY:
Romans 6:4-5 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also [in the likeness] of [his] resurrection:
1 Corinthians 6:9-11 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

AFFIRMATIONTRAIN
27th JUNE
I affirm that God is at work in me both to will and to do of His good pleasure! I am alive unto God, in Him, I live, move, and have my being. I reign every day with Him in the realms of glory. I am not ordinary, I function in the kingdom of God’s dear son and the life of God in me makes me more than a man.
I am an associate of the God-kind; I live the divine life naturally. I live above all the limitations of the human realm by the ability of God’s Spirit. Hallelujah! I am set on the course in which I must follow, and the Father has given me the ability to speak words of life – words that carry the power to alter circumstance and situations for my good. I speak life to everything that concerns me today, and I am moving from glory to glory. Hallelujah.
I am divinely positioned and enabled to influence my world with the grace of God and impart hope to the hopeless. God has lifted me up as a source of hope to the world; therefore I’m impacting the lives of those around me and in the regions beyond positively. I am full of life; I live a meaningful life, pleasing to God and beneficial to humankind. I am the seed of Abraham; I am blessed and the world is blessed because of me! At every count, I achieve results by the Word and through the power of God’s Spirit. Hallelujah! Winning is my game and I win everywhere I go because greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. Blessed be God!
