Topic: Rebirth And Regeneration From Ashes 3
Text: 2 Corinthians 5:17 
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.”

Reflection:
Continuation From Yesterday's Devotional. 

Butterflies are a symbol of rebirth or a new life. When a newly formed butterfly attempts to emerge from its chrysalis, it is often not an easy task. Problems occur along the way. Not only physical strength is required to force its way out, but elements of pain may also be endured during the process.

The determination to survive is of paramount importance. If it does not succeed in emerging from its protection, then it will not survive to experience a new life. It could be considered a life-or-death situation. All efforts will have been futile. Romans 5:3-5 confirms: “Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.” Just as a caterpillar forms a cocoon and re-emerges with a new identity, so we have the opportunity in life to do a similar thing.

A newly formed butterfly displays a distinct change of image or appearance. It is a freshly formed beautiful creature with evolving strength in its wings, which allows it to soar into the air like the birds in the sky. A new life with scope and inevitably hope beckons.

If we consider forming a relationship with God commensurate to the rebirth of a butterfly, then we may create a similar entity in ourselves. Isaiah 43:18-19 confirms: “Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”

There is no right or wrong time to consider a new relationship with God. His door is always open, His ears are ready to listen, His eyes are ready to see and accept us into the fold. It is when we feel that the time is right that matters. That will be the most productive and receptive time to start the new journey. The clock may continue to tick during the cycle of reformation and the emergence from the chrysalis as a butterfly for the caterpillar, but for us, there is no restriction on time, we can take as long as we need.

Prayer: 
Father, I have come to you in my lowest, please accept me and help me to build relationship with you in Jesus Name

Purity Foundation Daily Devotional  Tuesday 30th April 2024 Topic: Goodness And Mercy 30 - Followed By Good And Mercy 2 Text: Psalms 31:20  "In the secret place of Your presence You hide them from the plots of men; You keep them secretly in Your pavilion from the strife of tongues." Reflection:  One of the way we can understand goodness and mercy following us, is simply blessings from God are on my life, and they follow me. Because the Lord is my shepherd goodness and mercy follow hard after me. Isn't that a wonderful thought that God put a patrol car with a souped up hemi engine in it to pursue you? Goodness and mercy are the officers in the car and they are not there to bust you but to bless you. Psalms 31:19 "Oh, how great is Your goodness, which You have laid up for those who fear, revere, and worship You, goodness which You have wrought for those who trust and take refuge in You before the sons of men" David was so convinced of the fact of God...

Purity Foundation Daily Devotional  Friday 21st February 2025  Topic: Love, Acceptance And Forgiveness 21 - Are You Accepted 2 Text: Ephesians 4:29-30   "Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption." Reflection:  Continuation From Yesterday's Devotional. If we could truly get hold of, really understand, that we are accepted, adopted, blameless, chosen, forgiven, predestined, and sealed by God’s Holy Spirit on the basis of Christ’s atoning work, we would be so busy praising God all the day long that we would find no opportunity for petty differences. God was satisfied by Christ for sin, Jesus died because I deserved to die. Jesus took my place and died for me. Scripture says that He actually became us: "He who knew no sin, was made sin for us," (2 Corinthians 5:2...

Purity Foundation Daily Devotional  Wednesday 15th January 2025  Topic: From Darkness To Light 15 - Repentance And Faith  Text: Acts 26:18  "To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me." Reflection:  Repentance and faith are fundamental to salvation, over and over in the scripture we read the word "repent" because "the kingdom of heaven is at hand", the scripture teaches that "God commandeth all men everywhere to repent" and Jesus warned us that "except ye repent ye shall all likewise perish" sin is as natural to the posterity of Adam as wallowing in the mud is natural to swine, so the word repentance is not a beloved thought for those who have beloved sins, but "without holiness no man shall see the lord." What is true repentance? In true repentanc...
