WORKOUT THE NEW MAN - Daily Devotional (May-28-2023)

Daily Devotional (May-28-2023) WORKOUT THE NEW MAN.

Scripture Reference: Philippians 2 12-13:  “Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure.”

Every believer has the responsibility to outwardly show and express the new man that he is in Christ.

Recall that at salvation, you received a new life which is the life of Christ, now we must ensure that we are walking in accordance to our new nature. We must show the marvelous nature that God has worked in us.

How do we do this? The apostle Paul gives us an answer. Let's see Ephesians

4:22-32 "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.

Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to your neighbor, for we are all members of one body."In your anger do not sin" Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold. Anyone who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing something useful with their own hands, that they may have something to share with those in need.

Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice.Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you."

The works of the flesh as seen in Galatians 5:19-22 have been put to death in Christ, so, we ought not to revisit them. The new man should not be found trifling with these things. While we enjoy forgiveness in Christ, we must understand that we have the power to live above the works of the flesh.

Remember, grace is not a license to sin, it is a place where sin is not allowed.

We must understand that we are ambassadors of Christ. God defines us to us through Him, and we define Him to the world. Our actions and lifestyle represent those of Christ to the world, and as such, we must be careful not to misrepresent Christ. Like Jesus, we must not give people any basis for accusation (See 1 Peter 2:22). In summary, walk in the Spirit and you will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh.

AFFIRMATION: I affirm that I am brand new. I have no past, but only a future and a hope in Christ Jesus. I continually put off the workings of the old man, and I put on the new man. I do not walk in the flesh, but I am continually in tune with the Spirit. I bring the flesh under subjection by the power of the Spirit because I am yielded to the voice of the Spirit only. Glory!
