TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
|
The very moment we receive
Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, we instantly become a new creation. Our
spirits are made alive in Him, the old passes away, and His peace fills our
hearts. Of course, everything in your life doesn’t change instantly. Some things
do, but some things God will do in your life over time as you grow in your
relationship with Him. The key is to keep moving forward in your spiritual
journey one step at a time. Keep your eyes forward and don’t get stuck in the
past.
Today, remember, God is at
work in your life. You may not be where you want to be. You may have made
some mistakes or had some setbacks. But remember, in Him, you are the
righteousness of God. In Him, you are new. In Him is everything you need to
have victory in every area of your life!

The bible says : Ecclesiastes 3:1-22 - For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to pl...
