2024 TEENS VOLUME RHAPSODY OF REALITIES – MESSAGE.
“Hey, Lorraine, what does the phrase ‘being born again’ in 1 Peter 1:23 mean?” Elsa asked her Care Group leader. “Does it mean he or she just repented?”
“Not at all, Elsa,” Lorraine replied. “Being born again isn’t just about repentance or saying ‘sorry’ to God and having Him forgive you. It’s much more than that. It’s about receiving a new life and nature from the Lord Jesus Christ.”
Being born again goes beyond repentance; when you were born into this world, you came with the human life from your parents. This was the life you lived until you were born again and received another life: the life and nature of God. Does this, therefore, imply that you have two lives in you: a human life as well as the divine one? Absolutely not!
As a Christian, you only have one life, and it’s the God-life. The human life ceased to be because it was replaced by this life and nature of God. You didn’t receive an additional life; it was a supplanting of the old with the new. Hallelujah! The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 5:17, “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.” The use of the word “creation” lets us know that what’s being described is something new and strange to the world because it has never seen it before. It’s like what the Bible says in 1 John 3:1, “Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.” Now that we’re the sons of God, the world doesn’t recognize us because we’re changed.
We’re no longer subject to sickness, disease, failure, or death. We’re new creations, born with the life and nature of God that transcends the ordinary human life. This is the message of Christ. This is why He came: “But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name” (John 1:12). Hallelujah!

SPEAK
I declare that Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life, and His life and nature that transcends the ordinary human life has been imparted to my spirit. My old life has been completely supplanted by the divine life, which is superior to sickness, disease, defeat and the depravities of the natural man. Praise God forevermore!
