But now, thus says the Lord, who created you, O Jacob, and He who formed you, O Israel: ‘Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; you are Mine’
Have you ever felt trapped by the deeds of your past? Covered with the dust of regret that you cannot seem to shake?
When you invite Jesus into your heart, He determines that you are no longer called by your deeds; you will be called by your destiny. He does not remember the stains of your past deeds; He sees only the promise and potential in you as a new creation in Christ.
In Acts 3, the man who laid at the Beautiful Gate was known as lame and crippled. Those people who dropped coins in his cup day after day had no idea that he was destined to become a leaping and praising miracle…but God knew.
As a believer, God has called you by a new name. Your sins have been removed as far as the east is from the west. He no longer remembers them. He has given you a new destiny, a future filled with hope.
Shake off the dust of regret! You will no longer be called by your deeds; you will be called by the destiny He created for you. Most importantly, He has given you a new name. He calls you “Mine.”
Blessing:
May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you and give you His peace. Rejoice to know that you are His! You belong to a loving Heavenly Father. You are accepted in the Beloved. May you live down the deeds of the past as you walk in the new destiny He has given you. All things are new in the name of Jesus!
