Ephesians 4:22-24 “You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.” this is a reminder that following Christ requires us to let go of our old ways. we can’t keep wearing the same mindset, habits, and desires while expecting to live a new life. God is renewing our minds and transforming us into who He created us to be. every day, we have to choose to take off the old and put on the new. you are not who you used to be, so don’t continue to return to what God delivered you from. live like the new creation you are.

sin separates us from God, but it does not mean He is unable to hear us or save us. when we truly repent and turn away from what is wrong, God steps in and redeems us. even when darkness surrounds us and the enemy comes against us, the Spirit of the Lord will raise up a standard against him. “and the redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the Lord.” Isaiah 59:20 no matter how dark things may look, God’s light will always be greater. turn back to Him, stand firm in His truth and trust that He will fight for you🥹🤍

Bible study on Galatians 1 is still very much happening! I just haven’t been able to get some time, peace, or a quiet enough environment to do it at 6am. Prayerfully that shifts in the next few weeks. I’m going to just hold off on the Bible study until October 3rd, seriously this time 🤍 Still so excited to get into! ✨ pray for your girl! and if you would like, let me know below how I can pray for you🫂

even when life feels chaotic and we don’t know what’s going to happen next, God has not left us. Isaiah 7:9 reminds us that if we don’t stand firm in our faith, we won’t stand at all. so instead of allowing fear to take over, we have to trust in the Lord and remember that He is still in control. Isaiah 7:14 calls Him Immanuel, meaning “God with us.” not God with us only when life is good, but God with us in the confusion, the waiting, and the uncertainty too. the chaos may be around us, but God is right there with us. trust Him.
