Philippians 3: 13-16

Father We Thank You This Morning

We Bless And Honour Your Holy Name. We Stand In Awe Of You As We Always Do And Ask Oh Lord That You Have Regard Unto Our Prayers And Supplications And Let Our Cry Come Up To You.

As We Look To You This Morning We Pray That Our Past Will Not Hinder Our Future In The Name Of Jesus. Amen.

As humans we are capable of doing some shameful things. And if we look back over our lives we can probably see a few things we’re ashamed of and we wish we had never done. Or maybe it’s not what we have done, but what someone has done to us that has left us feeling bad about ourselves. But the Word of God tells us if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed; behold, all things have become new (see 2 Cor. 5:17). That means we are not the person we used to be prior to salvation. We may live in the same bodies, and our minds need to be renewed day by day, but our spirits have been recreated in Christ Jesus. And His blood has washed us whiter than snow. So now that we have a new beginning and a fresh start, why do we look back and identify with our past mistakes and failures?

If we’re not beating ourselves up, other people are reminding us of our past. And if people aren’t reminding us, the accuser of the brethren constantly whispers to us that we are no good. But what has God said about us?

That’s all that really matters. Throughout scripture we are reminded to forget about the past. And if we ever plan to fulfill our God-given purpose, we must cease to look back, because the past really has nothing to do with where God wants to take us.

In Genesis 12:1-2, the Lord told Abram to get out of his country, away from his family and from his father’s house, and go to a land that He would show him. God wanted Abram to look ahead to the new life that He had in store for Him. The blessing was waiting in the new place God was calling Him to. This is why Satan fights to keep us tied to our past. He knows we will never be who we are destined to be, and we will never do what we are purposed to do if we live in the past.

The apostle Paul understood the importance of walking in the newness of life in Christ. He had a lot in his past , but he didn’t let it deter him from his destiny. If he had continued to associate himself with his past mistakes, he would never bave been able to write under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and we would not be blessed by the bulk of the New Testament that was written by him. In his letter to the church at Philippi he wrote this:

“Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead. I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 3:13

Forgetting the past, and reaching for what’s ahead is vital to our future. If we ever expect to shine for God and touch the world with our gifts, talents, and ability, we have to be determined to let bygones be bygones.

REMEMBER TO:

  1. Forgive yourself for past mistakes and failures.
  • Forgive those who have wronged you.
  • When Satan reminds you of the past, speak God’s Word out loud over yourself and he will flee from you.
  • Pray and ask God to reveal His plan and purpose for your life.
  • Take a step of faith towards your future, and keep on stepping as the Holy Spirit leads you.
  • Surround yourself with people who believe in you, and will speak great things over your life.

“Behold the former things have come to pass, and new thing I declare; Before they spring forth I tell you of them.” Isaiah 42:9

Even as the world around us grows darker, our future in Christ is just getting brighter and brighter. God is about to do something new and fresh in the lives of His people. Now is the time for us to live purposeful lives. Now is the time for us to begin to do what we are destined to do for God. Now is the time for us to reach the world with what we have to offer. Today is the day we must throw off the old garments of guilt and shame that remind us of the past and press forward to a whole new life in christ.

PRAYER POINTS:

  1. Dear Lord we come to You sincerely with a desire to be free from our past in Jesus’ name. Amen.
  • Lord please give us the grace to overcome past mistakes, failures and rejections, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
  • We break every stronghold set up by the devil to use our past to destroy us and our future, in the name of Jesus. Amen.
  • We refuse to look back like Lot’s wife in Jesus name. Amen.
  • We cast down every imagination, thought and every high thing from our past that is trying to exalt itself, in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.
  • We receive the power to move forward in all areas of our lives from today, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
  • We ask that you help us oh Lord to help us to always look unto Jesus who will perfect everything that concerns us. Amen.

If you are born again, you do not own yourself anymore; you belong to Jesus, for He bought you with a price- His Precious Blood. By Pastor Chris and Anita Oyakhilome

If you are born again, you do not own yourself anymore; you belong to Jesus, for He bought you with a price- His Precious Blood. By Pastor Chris and Anita Oyakhilome

 

 

 

 

For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s (1 Corinthians 6:20).

 

 

 

 

If you’re born again, you don’t own yourself anymore; you belong to Jesus, for He bought you with a price – His Precious Blood. Thus, you’re now a love-slave to Jesus. You don’t have your life anymore and therefore can’t insist on having your way. Rather, you’re to live for Him. Not many in the Church are fully aware of this yet. Jesus bought you with a price and became your LORD, that means you can’t do what you like anymore, but what He wants. You’ve become His love-slave.

 

 

 

There’s a difference between a slave and a servant. You’re not a servant; for never at anytime did He call us, the New Creation, His Servants. The disciples were once His servants, but later He called them Friends (John 15:15). But after He went to the Cross and paid for their lives, they became His property; His love-slave! That’s why in most of his writings, Paul addressed himself as a love-slave to Jesus Christ.

 

 

 

 

Being a love-slave to Jesus means that even though He bought you, you love to be His; you’re glad to belong to Him, and are willing and ready to do whatever He tells you. Remember, everything you are, and everything you have belongs to Him; He owns you, Spirit, Soul and Body. So, you’re to glorify Him with your life by living for Him.

 

 

 

 

 

So, stop being yourself, and let Him have the pre-eminence in your life. He knows how to take care of His own, and since you belong to Him, it’s His responsibility to Protect, Keep, Bless, Help, Promote and Provide for you.

 

 

 

 

CONFESSION

Dear LORD Jesus Christ, I’m so glad I belong to you, and as Your love-slave, I commit myself to doing only those things that bring you honour and glory. My life is for Your glory, and I rejoice exceedingly to be called by Your Name, Amen!

 

 

 

 

May GOD bless Nigeria, America and Israel and take care of us; May GOD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the LORD lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!
