MAKING WAY FOR THE NEW   Part 1.

GOD AT WORK

(Revelation 21:4)  And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.  We will walk in an entirely new realm with our focus and emphasis on others and no longer drawing attention to self.

NO MORE TEARS … causing blurred vision and which usually draws attention to oneself … in the way of sympathy. No more tears for all the causes of such are gone!

NO MORE DEATH … means that all sin is deleted so it cannot demand its dues/wages. Resurrection-life is fully present which means no more lacks … no more sickness or dis-ease.

NO MORE SORROW … all disappointments gone too for the limited expectations of the ‘flesh’ are replaced by the sure promises of God which cannot fail. Faith wins as always.

NO MORE CRYING … crying out to God blaming Him indirectly for not answering your prayers in the way you felt was best! No more crying out to whoever will listen! You will not need any external help from man. Crying can once again be relegated to infants who even cry when lonely.

NO MORE PAIN … no more heartbreaks or new wounds from the loose tongues of others.

THESE ALL work together in our natural realm to pull one down. Just seeing them removed without filling their gaps could be disastrous! Overcome evil with good … we need to… ADD TO SUBTRACT. For faith to win -- you lose! For spirit to win, soul loses.

All the above are from our former Adam-life (soulish Eve-life or existence?) which has been getting less and less as Christ becomes more and more to/in us. There is hope -- for God said that He will make all things new… and that’s a huge list of areas and arenas (habits!) in one’s life.
