He Makes All Things New

“See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”
Isaiah 43:19
 
 
Have you ever purchased a ‘rebuilt’ part for your automobile?
Sometimes replacing the failed part with a brand new component can be prohibitively expensive so the option offered is a rebuilt part.
They are less expensive, but without the same guarantees a brand new part comes with.
God is not in the ‘rebuild’ business.
He doesn’t take your efforts and works and add to them.
He doesn’t take what has been and simply throw in a rebuild here and there.
He makes all things new.
Listen to this:
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come:
The old has gone, the new is here!
II Corinthians 5:17
You and I are new creations in Christ Jesus.
It’s not the ‘old man’ with a new façade.
We are born again into His Kingdom.
What an exciting truth to realize.
God doesn’t fix up the clunker.
He makes us a new creation.
God is not a tinkerer.
God is The Creator.
Have you placed your life, your future, your church in His hands?
