You Are A New Creation.

“So then, from now on we do not think of anyone from a human point of view. Even if we did think of Christ from a human point of view, we don't think of him that way any more.”
2 Corinthians 5:16(ISV)

Brothers and sisters in Christ, it is high time we stop judging ourselves according to our natural birth or surrounding circumstances. Jesus said in John15:19, “… ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world…” 2 Corinthians 5:17-18a (ALT) say,

“Therefore, if anyone [is] in Christ, [he is] a new creation; the old [things] passed away, look!, all [things] have become new. And all these [things are] of God,”

We are new creations now, and because we are new creations in Christ, we do not judge ourselves by our natural birth anymore being new creatures. All things, including our spiritual and moral condition, have become new. We are new on the inside, having a new heart and a new spirit.

The Bible says that all these things are of God. Thus all these new things are of God, who has brought divinity into us today. Everything inside of us now is of divine origin. The Bible lets us know in John 1:13 that as new creatures, who are sons of God, he says we “… were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.”

Now that we have been born of God, it therefore means that the life of God is in us. 1 John 5: 11-13 say, “And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.”

Therefore, we have become more than mere human beings because, the ability as well as the nature of God is inside of us today as a result of the new birth in Christ. So, do not judge yourself by natural circumstances anymore. The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 4:18(BBE), “While our minds are not on the things which are seen, but on the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are for a time; but the things which are not seen are eternal.” You may not see it with your physical eyes, but God is in you. Become God-inside-minded. So, judge yourself by what the Word of God says and not by what the world sees.


Confession.
I am what God says I am. I choose to see myself the way God sees me. I am more than a man because the nature and the ability of God are at work in me and through me. I declare that the life as well as the ability of God in me is subduing my human nature and desires even as I learn to live with the consciousness of who I am in Christ.

Doing the Word.
Stop seeing yourself just from a human point of view. As a new creation you are more than human.
