Being Born Again

Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be   born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God (John 3:3).

In our previous study, we learnt that the Christian isn’t a natural man. The natural man is subject to defeat, failure, poverty, and the uncertainties of life; he’s governed by the rudiments of this present evil world, without hope in life. Ephesians 2:12   describes his life as an utter tragedy, because he lives in this world without hope and   without God; a terrible state to be. 

If the foregoing describes you or someone you know, that can change even now. Yes, you might have lived as a natural man, subject to the depravities and corrupting influences of this natural world, but you can start a new life today, by being born again. Jesus said except a man is born again, he can’t escape the destruction and perils in this world.

Why should anyone remain a natural man, and be buffeted by the storms and harsh gusts of life? Only the one who’s born again is separated from darkness, evil, and from perishing: John 3:16 says, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish….” The death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus disconnected you from the domain of Satan, and this world of darkness and turmoil, and transferred you into Christ; into the glorious liberty of the sons of God. 

The negative forces of this world can’t prevail against you. Failure, sickness, poverty, and everything negative aren’t a part of your life when you’re born again! You live in the victory of Christ every day, such that at the end of life on earth, you’ll stand before Him in glory. But that can’t happen if you’re not born again, if you remain a natural man. 

The natural man can’t receive the things of the Spirit of God, but when you receive Christ into your heart, and get to know the Holy Spirit, He’ll unveil the heart of Father to you. 

If you’ve never been born again, this is your moment: turn to the Prayer of Salvation page at the back of this devotional, pray the prayer, and mean the words with all your heart. 

Prayer

Dear heavenly Father, I thank you for my beautiful life in Christ. I’m growing by   the day, in the knowledge of Christ, and of my inheritance in Him, unto maturity, ready for the Master’s use, in Jesus’ Name. Amen
