What is really new...What God Makes New!

I can tell you all the other good stuff, but that's what makes him good. He sacrificed his life for you. That's what good is. If you wanna put good on anything, that's the definition of good. So if you say you're a good dad, you're a good dad only if you sacrifice your life for your children. You wanna be a good worker? God's definition right here of a good shepherd is someone who sacrifices himself. That's what good is. [00:29:46] (43 seconds)  #SacrificialGoodness

If God doesn't step in, it's just the same life with a new date. Your marriage is the same if if if if God's not there, it's it's the same as last year. It's just a new date. So God is the author of the new. I want you to think about this. New doesn't start with motivation. New starts with God's initiative. [00:42:55] (33 seconds)  #GodsInitiativeNew

He adds to that family. You see that the church was added to what? Daily. The family continues to grow, grow, and grow. It gets bigger and bigger. God's new is not temporal. God's new is eternal. God is a God that changes not. Remember, I read the scripture, no man can pluck you out of God's hand. See, that is something eternal. [01:00:26] (30 seconds)  #EternalNewFamily

Every day is a better day. Yesterday's finish line is today's starting line. Because I'm not stuck in the past, I keep moving to the full future. Keep moving to the present because this is the day that the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it. For this is what? My receiving day. What am I receiving? Mercy, faithfulness. I'm receiving God, his love. So I grabbed this opportunity, this opportunity to be a light in the darkness, it'd be this opportunity to be a place where God is seen, love is felt, lives are changed, all in who? Jesus' name.

What needs to be made new? What needs to be exchanged? I know you're strong, but what needs to be exchanged for stronger? I know you have joy, but what needs to be exchanged? I know you have vision, but needs what needs to be renewed? What needs to be exchanged for a new vision? Does your faith need to be renewed? Does your joy need to be renewed? Your vision? How about your obedience? [01:08:38] (35 seconds)  #ExchangeForStronger

don't don't get stuck on yesterday's obedience because today, there's gonna be another opportunity for you to obey. And all you have to do is obey the word of God. Know the word, see the word, focus on the word, speak the word, live the word, read the word. It's easy. See, I don't know how it is. It's easy. [01:11:00] (26 seconds)  #ObeyTheWordDaily

God doesn't change the circumstance. He always changes circumstances. Or let me say it this way, God doesn't just change the circumstances. I've seen him change circumstances, but more than that, he changes identity. When he changes your identity, you're able to identify as Christ identifies. It's not by your eyes that you look through, it's through his eyes. It's not your perspective, it's his perspective. You don't look through fact, you look through truth. When you look through truth, that sets you free [00:47:53] (38 seconds)  #IdentityInChrist

Then we see also in this, there's a new generosity. Y'all all gave generously last year. Your time, your treasure, your talent, your testimony. Very, very generous. But you know what? God's gonna do a new generosity. New generosity that happens. And then there's the last one that we saw too in there. It was a new power. A new power. It was added to the church daily. God doesn't just make new people. He forms new families. [00:59:50] (35 seconds)  #NewGenerosity
