PHANEROO~DEVOTION Monday, 30th June 2025 Apostle Grace Lubega Isaiah 43:18–19 (NIV): Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland. THE POWER TO BEGIN AGAIN There is a kind of glory God places on a life that redefines everything that came before. It’s not that your past didn’t happen—it’s that it no longer has the power to define your identity or limit your future. That’s the power to begin again. Many people feel trapped by what they've done, where they've been, or what was done to them. Regret becomes a ceiling; shame becomes a cage. But when God steps in, He doesn’t just patch up your past—He floods your present with healing and purpose so bright that the pain of yesterday loses its voice. Think of Paul. He was a persecutor turned preacher, a man with a violent past who became a vessel of grace. He said in Philippians 3:13, “One thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead.” God gave him something greater to reach for than what was behind him. The Lord wants to change your life and flood it with a transformative glory that no one will associate you with your past. FURTHER STUDY: Isaiah 61:3; Romans 8:1 GOLDEN NUGGET: There is a kind of glory God places on a life that redefines everything that came before. It’s not that your past didn’t happen—it’s that it no longer has the power to define your identity or limit your future. PRAYER: Lord, thank You for the power to begin again. Thank You that my past does not disqualify me from Your purpose. I receive Your new beginning today. Your glory floods everything that I do. I walk forward in freedom, joy, and purpose—knowing that You are making all things new. In Jesus’ name, Amen. bit.ly/ToKeepWhatYouHaveReceived #PhanerooDevotion📜
