Forget the Past, Live for Today!

Once we become christians, old things (the way we behaved, responded to different things, and mostly the way we think) have passed away, or I should say, the habitual tendencies for wrong doings have been broken. All things have become new, the way has been made for a brand new start in life. Our direction for eternity after death has changed to everlasting life with Jesus the Overcomer. We are being instructed today to forget those things behind us and reach for the high calling of God in Christ Jesus (Philippians 3:14 KJB). There is now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:1). If you know you messed up, then make things right or you will have condemnation, and rightfully so if you don’t make it right with the person or situation. Do not dwell on the pass, it has been erased from your record since you received Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of your life. We will all continue to mess up in life because we’re still not perfect yet, and won’t be until the next life. Forget the former things, God is doing a new thing and He wants us to be sensitive to it. We can move with the blessings of God by staying tuned in through prayer. Forget the past, live for today!
