Romans 6:6- “For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body ruled by sin might be done away with…”
I recently received the good news that a person we’d been praying for for many years has accepted Jesus as his Savior—in a prison cell.
I praise God for his new life in Christ—a life filled with new friends, interests, purpose.
Sam Adeyemi, Nigerian pastor and motivational speaker, has said,“Real and sustainable change in a person’s life begins with a change in their sense of identity.”
There will be many changes ahead for our friend, but one of the greatest will be the realization that he is a child of God. That he is loved and forgiven.
The man he was before no longer exists. He is no longer defined by his mistakes… the laws he has broken… the people he has disappointed.
Those things are now a part of the past—a past that has been wiped clean by the blood of Jesus.
