You can have a fresh start

Its another year and nothing seems to have changed, all you are reminded of, are the failures, the loss and loneliness.
On the outside, it looks like you have it all together, but on the inside you are hurting, disappointed, like a shell, as a matter of fact you are wondering if you can go through another year of this.

You know it doesn't have to be that way, all of that can change if you want it to, you can start a new life. Maybe you have said to yourself, If I can have a fresh start, I would do things differently. That can be a reality because Jesus made it possible. He paid the price for all your failures, all of your sins.

That is the reason He was born so that you can have a fresh start. .I know you are probably saying, I don't know the terrible things you have done, It doesn't matter, Jesus paid the price for everyone of them.

So how do you make that fresh start, its really very simple. Romans 10:9 says that "if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."
It's as easy as saying, "Jesus, I'm giving my life over to You. From this day forward I belong to you.." I have a fresh start, a new life in you.


Just let Jesus have control, hand the reigns over to him and give a shout of praise. You are having a fresh start but with him as commander.

These are the words to the song 'You Reign"


Even before there was a drop in the ocean even before there was a star in the sky even before
the world was put in motion You were on Your throne You were on Your throne.

[chorus]
You reign glory in the highest You reign let creation testify by Your name every knee will bow
and every tongue proclaim that Jesus reigns.

Even before Your hand made the heavens even before the breath of all mankind even before we
had to be forgiven You were on Your throne You were on Your throne. [back to chorus]

Yesterday, today and forever Your are God who was, and is and is to come. [back to chorus]

Repentance is a God given opportunity to enter into the blessings of the Lord and escape from the oppression of the enemy.
If you haven't ask Jesus into your heart as Savior and asked Him to forgive you of your sins, it is as simple as following these steps:

1) ADMIT YOU HAVE SINNED. "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23).

2) BELIEVE IN JESUS. "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16).


3) CONFESS AND LEAVE YOUR SIN. "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9)
