This is part one of our series Dream Bigger. In 2018 we are celebrating 75 years since King's Church International was founded and it is a time to dream bigger dreams for what God is going to do.
Part 1 of the series is New Beginnings, and you can listen to the podcast or read the summary below.
Key Scripture
“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”
Recap
The first week in our summer series taught us that this is a time of new beginnings, not just in our personal lives but also in our families, our church and our nation.
New beginnings for...
- …the preaching of the gospel
- …many individuals
- ...families
- ...the church
- ...this nation
Application
Think about your own life, are there any areas you think you need a fresh start in? Declare 2 Corinthians 5:17 over yourself; "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!" But this isn't just for ourselves, we can declare this verse over any area. Family, work, friends, the church, our nation!
Here are some other verses to encourage you.
Acts 16:31
1 John 1:7
Romans 1:16
Declaration
I am a new creation in Jesus, the old has gone, the new is here.
Prayer
Thank you Lord that you make all things new, I recieve your salvation afresh today. Thank you that I can have a new beginning, please help me today in every situation. Amen.
