S1E48 - Stolen Goods…Embrace the New Life!

Getting Started With Jesus

Episode Notes

As we close this year of Podcasting in 2023, I sincerely thank you for listening and sharing your thoughts with others. May God continue to bless your journey for Spiritual Growth and Maturity. Remember to Be Peaceful, Celebrate Life, Keep Moving Forward, and Trust Only God!

Today’s show is quite thought provoking and challenging because I ask a simple question about the Old Lifestyle that is hard to break away from. When are you going to Embrace the New Life in Jesus Christ? Think about it…the New Life in Jesus Christ.

One of the biggest problems in being a Christian is getting rid of the “Old Lifestyle.” It is hard to let go of sinful habits, attitudes, mannerisms, and behaviors that keep us living according to the “standards of the world.” We tend to get distracted and disappointed day after day.

In many cases, by the time we are drawn to accept God’s Way, we have grown so accustomed to the many malfunctions and deficiencies which result from our sinful behavior; that we often fail, resist, give up, or settle for a religious routine. Maybe, that is why holy scripture says, ”Train up a child in the way he should go: And when he is old he will not depart from it (Proverbs 22:6). I mean, is there a break even point or baseline approach for Spiritual Growth and Maturity? I do have a theory about it that I shared years ago with my Spiritual Mother. However, I’m still doing the research on that one!

But, if we learn how to Renew our minds and put on the new regimen, (Ephesians 6:10-18, The Whole Armor of God) and grab new methods, and accept the new responsibility; then the Christian life could be an exciting adventure as you Embrace the New Life in Jesus Christ! Indeed! There are countless blessings and various promises from Almighty God that manifest in the life of the true, faithful Believer who learns to Trust God and his infinite Power.

Listen today and hear a great True Story at the beginning and at the end of this Podcast. I want you to leave 2023 inspired; and to enter 2024 fully equipped to experience the Peace of God as you walk Closer to God. May the Holy Spirit guide every step that you take. Continue to Be Blessed.

Merry Christmas! And, Happy New Year!
