The New Man

“that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness."
Ephesians 4:22‭-‬24 NKJV
Put off the former things. Put off the former conduct. To “Put off something” requires your diligent participation. Do not go back to the old man — the old way of doing things. Surrender to the new. Surrender to Christ. Let the old way die. Let the old conversation depart from your mouth. Let the new man rise up. Let the former things go and let your heart be renewed in Christ.
The old man is filled with deceit. The past is filled with lust and corruption. Choose to surrender to Christ’s Way of doing things. Pattern your life after His Word. Let His Word shape your life. Let His Word guide your heart. Put off the former and embrace the new things of Christ.
Galatians‬ ‭5:1‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ declares, “Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.” Do not be entangled with the old. Surrender to the new. Yield to the new. Bow to God. Let Christ lead you. Let His Power transform you from the inside out. Put off the former things of the world. Embrace and actively take hold of the new.
