Daily Bread – March 30, 2023 (The Fifth Day – Genesis 1:20-23) Ephesians 2:10 – For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God ordained that we should walk in them. God’s Workmanship, Not Man’s The works of the Law, human discipline, and all of the religions of the world combined could not erase the sins of the past, or change the nature of man. There is no reconditioning program for the heart that could bring about the necessary change in the mind and spirit of man. God had to become flesh to defeat the power of death and sin. Man’s salvation could only come from God, for the power of death had sealed his fate, and the power of sin could not be broken by any works of men. A way to end the old life by putting it to death and a means to bring forth a new life from the resurrection of the dead had to be made so that all things could be new. One Who had the power to destroy death and sin would have to break the yoke. One Who had the authority to raise up from the dead would have to die for every man, and this is what Christ Jesus did. Through His death, we died and were buried with Him. By the power of the Living God, we were then raised up together into His resurrection life so all things could be new! (Romans 6:1-10; 2 Corinthians 5:17-18) Blessings, Pastor Mark Spitsbergen
