To die is to live

Monday Message

Have you ever heard the phrase die to the flesh and wondered what the heck it meant?
Thanks for joining us for Monday’s Message with Abigail Rice and Trench Classes United. To die to the flesh brings life…eternal.
 
 
Come back
Your back
To the sun that’s shining down
Turn around
Look up
Face the sun
Feel the heat
Maybe this past week
Sickness decided to creep
You felt like you should’ve got it all done by now
But death destroyed
And the walls fell down
 
Do you hear that trumpet sound?
 
Ceasing those thoughts in your mind
The incessant lies
Telling you it won’t be okay
And no, you won’t be fine
 
Death came
But you did not die
 
Death came to take
But you did not hide
 
Death came to conquer and destroy
But you fought back
You brought back
Your joy
 
Death came
Not knowing the impact it would make
 
Because it made all things new
All things fresh
 
It was the old that died
and the new has come to life
 
Reborn
Weathered the storm
 
The years in the past
Beget
This new foundation to be set
 
His remnant
His people
His promise
 
That all things would be made new
Meaning you.
 
Now reframe
You have no guilt
You feel no shame
 
There’s no turning back now
The year has come
And gone
 
The scales have fallen off
The veil has been torn
A new life revealed
 
Now Blow the horn
 
“ And He who sits on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” And He *said, “Write, for these words are faithful and true.” 6 Then He said to me, “[c]It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give water to the one who thirsts from the spring of the water of life, without cost. 7 The one who overcomes will inherit these things, and I will be his God and he will be My son. 8 But for the cowardly, and unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and sexually immoral persons, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.” Revelation 21:5-8
