The New has Come

"Leave the broken, irreversible past in God's hands,

and step out into the invincible future with Him."

Are you ready my friends?

Are you ready to leave your broken, irreversible past in God's hands?

Are you ready to step into the invincible future with God?

Rest for a moment and explore the word INVINCIBLE

Invincible–adjective

Incapable of being defeated or subdued.

Now that you've seen the definition I will ask you one more time

Are you ready?

Friends, I hope to explore some new things with you this year as well as some new attitudes and actions.

It is my hope to motivate you to step out of your past and into the invincible future with God.

I want us to become "Women of Change" who put away excuses and self-justification. Women who hold on to truth and the reality at hand.

In order to prepare for what lies ahead I want to begin with these verses in Ephesians.

Ephesians 6:10-18, "Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people." (NIV)

I'll be spending the next few posts exploring these verses as we get ready to step into the wonderful, incredible, and invincible future our heavenly Father has already planned for us.

I encourage you to get out your journal, a pen and God's word.

Let's study together this year and dialogue about the steps we're taking and the challenges that are molding us into Women of Change.

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation;

the old has gone, the new has come!" (NIV)
