Forget All Of That, It’s A New Day
Pastor Carolyn J. Blue
Isaiah 43:18-19
KJV
18 Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.
19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
NLT
18 “But forget all that— it is nothing compared to what I am going to do.
19 For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.
Philippians 3: 13-14
KJV
13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
NLT
13 No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it,[a] but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead,
14 I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us.
Today is a new day! So Stop holding on to yesterday! Yesterday is a thing of your past, and we should not get caught up into our yesterday’s!
If we spend our time focused on what we’ve been through, what has happened, or where we are right now, how can we concentrate on what God has for us right now! Because He said that It’s a new day!
He has so much in store for each one of us here tonight! But we must change our thinking and our actions in order to receive what he has for us in this new day! He has more in store for you tonight
But you must believe what he says.
We have what we say! If He said to forget your past, good or bad — He’s doing a New Thing and it’s a New Day!!!
He says that it is a new day, and if he says that it is a new day that tells me that something that I’ve experienced, something I have encountered, something I have thought, something I have done is no longer an interruption or an issue, whatever I’ve I’ve obtained is not the end of my story!!!
He says that we are to forget those things that are behind us!!! Behold he says look look look I’m doing something new.
I’m doing a new thing! An old songwriter used to say something good is going to happen to you this very day and I don’t have any better sense than to believe that God said, forgetting those things that are behind me, expecting Him to do something new and exciting in your life!!
We should be reaching toward those things that are before us! Knowing that if God said it, it’s so and when God does it, it’s done!!!
That’s good news on tonight!
Even the good things that you’ve experienced, all of the joys that you’ve experienced, you should still forget all of that because He says everything you’ve experienced is nothing compared to what I’m about to do in your life!
Somebody ought to tell him thank you right now!!!
What you have, what you had, is nothing compared to what he’s getting ready to do in the lives of his people!
We can put a pin right there and begin the shout!
Forget all of that!! Start looking for your New because it’s a New Day!!!
