Prayer: Father, thank you so much for sending Jesus to die in my place. You have given me a new life and a new purpose. I pray that I can walk in this newness of life and not indulge in the things that used to have a hold on me.
Made New
Our life has a new purpose once we become children of God - to help people find and follow Jesus. Everything we do and everything we say will either lead people towards him or lead people away from him. Take a moment to take that in. We have countless opportunities to participate in God’s eternal work. Unfortunately, Paul reminds us that we all have a desire to rebel and disobey God that can be traced back all the way to Genesis 3.
In the book of Exodus, God wanted his people to know and understand how holy he is and their desperate need for a Savior. The Law given to Moses revealed God’s holiness and Israel’s desire to disobey God. No one was ever able to fulfill the law except Jesus. He did everything perfectly, so now we are not under the Law. By God’s grace, he reveals his holiness through Jesus, which is both comforting and convicting!
Questions to Ask Yourself:
- What are some habits that you have that may lead people away from an accurate view of Jesus?
- How do you use your body as an instrument of righteousness?
What’s Next?
- Reflect on how God’s grace has changed your life. Share with someone this week how Jesus’ death and resurrection has given you a new purpose.

Jesus promised his followers that they never had to walk in fear because He overcame the worst this world could bring against them. Over the course of 11 days, we will examine Romans 5-8 to better understand how following Jesus Christ enables us to live free from fear, failure, demands, and death itself.
