Newness of life defined.

Walking in newness of life (living a life of victory in Christ today, and every day)
 involves some strategy. The strategy includes: realizing that without Him, I can
do nothing, praying fervently to the Father- looking intently for His guidance,
sharing concerns, and asking for help in living in His freedom. It is simply a new
way of living and behaving.  The living is for God's glory (His excellence, His perfection). As Henry Blackaby has said "Living with Him and alive to Him (love Him so much that we obey Him and do not sin)".
Woodrow Kroll said "We are to journey deliberately into life, not wander around like we are still dead." This means trusting Christ with your past, your present, and your future.
"No longer live as a 'betweener'- living between Egypt and Canaan, saved but not satisfied; living between Good Friday and Easter, believing in the Cross but not entering into the power and glory of His Resurrection." -Warren Wiersbe
Please join me in this adventurous journey.
"When we came up out of the water, we entered into the new country of grace- a new life in a new land." Romans 6:4 (The Message)
A prayer:
Heavenly Father, so many times i wonder what I should do on this journey. Help me now to listen intently to what Your Spirit is saying. Please give me the strength and courage to act on what you command and share Your love. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
