Fresh Start 10/11-14

11-14 October 2016 – Fresh Start – Manna by Dorothy Callies

Lamentations 3:22-23 NIV “… His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.”

Some of us made wrong choices in our lives, but our past words and actions are not a failure in God’s eyes for future. There is always a fresh start. When we ask God for His forgiveness, we take a first step toward restoring our relationship with Him and with others.

1 John 1:9 tells us, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” We have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.  Jesus is our lawyer, He speak to God, the Father and Jesus presented His blood which cleansed us from all the wrong choices we made. 

This is why God’s compassion and God’s faithfulness are new every morning, so we can start afresh each day. Something new we have not experienced before. It is like a new feelings. We have a new beginning to start with. We have a chance to start refresh in spirits or vigor, feel like a new person with a new energy.

Prayer: Thank You Lord for this new day.  Thank You for a fresh start. Thank You for Your blood which cleansed me day by day and make me a new person. Thank You for Calvary.  Thank You for Your grace.  Your mercy are new every morning. Great is Your faithfulness!  I love you!

Song: Great Is Thy Faithfulness

    (Thomas Obediah Chrisholm, Sing His Praise)

Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,

Thy own dear presence to cheer and to guide;

Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,

Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!

Chorus:

“Great is Thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness!”

Morning by morning new mercies I see;

All I have needed Thy hand hath provided—

“Great is Thy faithfulness,” Lord, unto me!

May God truly bless you and you start fresh with Jesus!
