Renew Daily

by Pastor Ken

2 Corinthians 4:16

Therefore we don’t faint, but though our outward man is decaying, yet our inward man is renewed day by day.

The “outward man,” or “outward person,” means the body.

As we age, the body becomes weaker. But the “inward person,” our spiritual nature, can be daily renewed by the Spirit of God (Romans 7:22; Ephesians 3:16). Constant renewal keeps you united to God (Romans 12:2).

The Holy Spirit renews you with new supplies of spiritual life, energy, courage, and faith. When you let the Holy Spirit renew you, He will restore the image of God in your soul.

Though outwardly, you may grow old and decay over the years, inwardly, you continue to grow in grace as long as you live.

Every believer needs this daily renewal to keep their experience with God from becoming callous and formal.

Your spiritual renewal brings new light from God’s Word, new cleansing of heart and mind, and new experiences of grace to share with others.

Let God’s Spirit renew you today and every day!


Reflection

What three things can I do to renew my spiritual nature daily?


Prayer

Restoring God, Help me let the Holy Spirit renew me each day. Let every day find me closer and closer to You. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
