OUT WITH THE OLD

Today’s Scriptures

7 You used to do these things when your life was still part of this world. 8 But now is the time to get rid of anger, rage, malicious behavior, slander, and dirty language. Colossians 3:7-8 (NLT)

Today's TO DO
Choose change.

Progress comes to those who choose to let go of the old ways. I know a man who has been moved from the oppression of poverty to a newfound comfort that is beyond his wildest imagination. Yet, he refuses to experience the different foods that God has given him access to, instead, he eats only what he knew during his youth. This man of incredible wealth refuses to travel to the exotic places that are within his reach because he does not want to become accustomed to luxury lest he should lose it. His fear of what could happen imprisons him and prevents him from enjoying the here and now.

Therefore: When God blesses your world with newness, vibrancy and vitality, embrace it. It should be out with the old and in with the new. Release the heavy weights of anger, rage, malice behavior, slander and dirty language that have prohibited you from building lasting relationships. Put on love and forgiveness. Reject all the drama! Then, let God lead you as you explore the exquisite radiance that He has prepared for you along the awe-inspiring road that lies ahead.
