Something new
"... I therefore, the
prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith
ye are called ..." Ephesians 4: 1
A new way of
life, that's what we need to change things. We live in a world in which everyone struggles to survive; some
dare to compare it to the jungle where the law of the strongest prevails. But,
as we can experience something new? "Being born again" term used in
the Bible to denote a new way of life, a radical change to a certain point; full
circle, 180 degrees.
"... Jesus answered and said
unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, one is born again, he can not see the
kingdom of God ..." John 3: 3
As human
beings, we constantly worry about what we do not understand; worse, what we
reason according to our limited capacity.
This has led
to mistakes in life simply have stopped doing things, common practices and, to
be honest, we only changed in appearance, but inwardly are exactly the same.
We must
learn to change,
psychologists say that if we do something for twenty-one days in a row, end up
becoming usual, and therefore in law.
Principles Always practice which will
enable us to bring a new life in Christ. "... But solid food is for
those who have reached age, even those who by use have their senses exercised
to discern both good and evil ..." Hebrews 5:14
When we
learn to say no to things to which we had become accustomed and do not let our
spiritual life to grow, then we begin to change habits.
It is difficult to change If someone told you is a simple and smooth
way, lied to you. The reality is that many of the newly converted abandon
their faith by the number of difficulties encountered on the path they have
chosen. "... With Christ I have been crucified, and I no longer live, but
Christ lives in me; and I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of
God, who loved me and gave Himself for me ... "Galatians 2:20
When the
apostle Paul wrote these words, I did not think about the difficulties
believers live today; no, I thought about the difficulties that surrounded him;
and I think those were older than ours. 2 Corinthians 11: 23-27 - Are they ministers
of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labors more abundant; in stripes;
in prisons more; in danger of death many times. Of the Jews five times received
I forty stripes save one. Three times I have been beaten with rods; once I was
stoned; thrice I suffered shipwreck; a night and a day I have been adrift at
sea; in journeys often; in danger from rivers, danger from robbers, danger from
my own people, danger from Gentiles, danger in the city, dangers in the
wilderness, danger at sea, danger from false brothers; In weariness and
painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, often without food, in
cold and nakedness.
It possible Whenever God gives you a word of power, it is because it is
possible to reach the level that is asking you. We know that the easiest
way is to follow the flow of the crowds, but that has no difficulty; it is
really difficult to leave the lot
"... For nothing is
impossible with God ..." Luke 1:37
For men it
is impossible to reach the standard that God desires, that is why it is now his
son who lives in us, who gives us new life, giving of His Spirit to guide us,
and it is he who strengthens us and help in times of weakness.
