Jesus Makes All Things New: 12 Days Reflecting on Your New Path

DAY 12 OF 12

Inviting the Eternal...

Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away...
Revelation 21:1 NKJV)

Yes, indeed. The opening verse of the last two chapters in God’s Word reminds us that one day, all things—Will. Be. Made. New.

Here, the Holy Spirit directs our attention through Beloved John’s vision that what matters so much to us now, as we live and move throughout our days here on earth, will one day mean so very little in the light of eternity. Every tear will be wiped away, and there will be no more death, sorrow, crying, or pain because former things have passed (Rev. 21:4). With our finite minds and limited understanding, we cannot even begin to imagine what the Alpha and Omega has in store (Is. 64:4).

So, let’s be reminded—the kingdom we serve is not an earthly one. As Jesus said, My kingdom is not of this world... (John 18.36)

This doesn’t minimize our desires for something new. Rather, let our new choices be enhanced by what is eternal and not only what is temporal. As we seek the Holy Spirit’s help to renew, rebuild, restore, or chart a new course, condition, or walk in fresh calling, let’s weigh our decisions with what will increase the fame of His name and magnify His presence for those who watch our endeavors.

Let’s consider a few of the points we’ve discussed these past several days. Our new choices are based on Jesus’ love and forgiveness, even when we falter. He already sees us as new, and the Holy Spirit is transforming us from the inside out to match His vantage point. How we cooperate with Him matters. What consumes our thoughts is oh so vital, and we must walk in love. Finally, people just like us have experienced His ability to open new paths, doors, and lives.

So, let’s begin this journey of walking in the new thing He is doing. Are you ready? Me, too. Let’s go!

About this Plan

Jesus Makes All Things New: 12 Days Reflecting on Your New Path

The Lord Jesus loves to do new things, and often we long to do something new, too. Small or large, we realize a need for a new way of living, acting, or reacting. Possibly, we desire a new road, path, vocation, or location. Let’s reflect on what God’s Word says about His newness in our lives, diving into its riches for encouragement and strength for our new day.
