Ordo Salutis: Regeneration
3 Jesus answered and said to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
4 Nicodemus said to him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? 5 Jesus answered, Truly, truly, I say to you, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Marvel not that I said to you, You must be born again. 8 The wind blows where it wants, and you hear the sound thereof, but can not tell from where it comes, and where it goes: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. — John 3:3-8 | American King James Version (KJVUS) The American King James Version is Produced by Stone Engelbrite.

Our identity is in Christ Part 5
Leaving the old identity and the old life behind
I remember well the joy of my own experience of being born again, the burden of my sin lifting off my shoulders, being cleansed in my heart, it felt like a sauna in that every pore of my heart was cleansed. Being delivered from swearing and bad language. My new life in Christ had begun. The selfishness, pride, greed and pleasing only myself had to come off under the water of baptism. Yet we need to keep the old man of the flesh crucified. He would like to get down of that cross, but we do not need to let him.
John 3:7 You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’ 8 The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So, it is with everyone born of the Spirit.” 9 “How can this be?” Nicodemus asked.
Nicodemus was around 60-70 years old and had a lifetime of personal failures and character flaws behind him. Yet here was Jesus offering him a fresh start free from the old life of bondage. The picture here to a Jew like Nicodemus, is that of the Exodus, where the wind dried up the Red Sea allowing the Israelites to pass over on dry ground. The main point is that we need to leave the old life of bondage behind in Egypt and the old life of being under the circumstances. Being born again is the only way we can turn back the clock of our lives.
Summary
When we are born again, we are brought into all the victories of Jesus Christ
All our blessings and spiritual riches are In Christ
In Him we have a higher ranking than the angels
In Him we are more than conquerors
In Him we ought to be living in victory
In Him we ought to be behaving like overcomers
In Him we do not have to be under the circumstances
Final Thoughts
But you say sometimes God does require his people to go through suffering, and yes that is true sometimes. But the question is ‘What kind of suffering does God require us to go through?’
The humbling of our pride or reputation, or putting under our fleshly desires?
But does God require us to go through depression or live in constant defeat or fear, downtrodden, always be the tail and not the head?
The answer is an emphatic No!
Prayer and ministry
Brothers and Sisters, it is now time to reclaim your identity in Christ. Let us do it.
Let us pray and ask the Lord to help us leave our old identities behind
and move into our new victorious identities.
False identity/ vs True Identity in Christ
Defeated /Victorious
Depressed or Downtrodden/ Uplifted
Cursed or hate your life/Blessed/ or love your life
Lonely/ Part of his family
Sleepless/ Resting in Him
Empty/ Full
Worried or anxious/ Faith filled
Poor or lack/ Rich or plentiful
Hopeless or a Loser/ Hopeful or a Winner
Oppressed or addicted/ Set free
Panic attacks or under unhealthy pressure/ Peace of mind
Personal prayer
Amen

Yes! Sin consciousness is the greatest destroyer of faith. We want to build the Believers faith up through the knowledge of who we are through the new creation, not tear them down through the destructive and harsh attitudes and teachings from hearts that still haven’t truly come to know the love of God through the new birth. Jesus came and did away with the law and it’s bitterness and hardness that it brings. Be sure you are hearing the word of life taught. Condemnation will kill your spirit quickly.❤️

Scripture of the Day - March 21, 2024 What is the Importance of a NEW BIRTH?
From the Bible’s King James ERV
John 3:1-7 
There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: 
The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that you do, except God be with him.”
Jesus answered and said unto him, “Truly, truly—I say unto you—Except a man be BORN AGAIN, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
Nicodemus said unto him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?” 
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto you, “Except a man be BORN OF WATER and OF THE SPIRIT, he CANNNOT ENTER into the KINGDOM OF GOD.”
“That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto you, ‘You must be born again’.” 
Jesus was pointing out to Nicodemus—the difference between a FLESH AND BLOOD birth when we are born into the world; and a SPIRITUAL birth which occurs when we repent of the sin-life and choose to be born of the Spirit of God, into the kingdom of God; and that the ‘kingdom of God’ does not come with observance, but is something that goes-on inside you—just like the wind-blowing: you can tell  it’s there by the moving of trees, etc. but cannot see it to tell where it came-from, nor to predict where it’s going-to.
Two thousand years after Christ's rendezvous with Nicodemus—there are thousands, even millions of people on earth who do not believe man must be BORN AGAIN. They’ve not read the Bible line-by line; but only open it up and read parts here & there and think it’s talking about them. I know someone personally, who did just that and claims that she and the Father are one, just because she opened the Bible to John chapter 17. I asked if she’d ever opened it up to read “You  must be born again” and she said, “Yes, but I don’t like that part, because it only makes me feel bad. I like only the parts that make me happy; and Jesus already died for the sins of the whole world, so I don’t have to worry about that.” Truth is—she’d go online to the internet and found teachings about God being in everyone and everything, and that you only have to look inside to find yourself and believe in yourself and to love yourself and others as all being one with God; not realizing we’re just FLESH AND BLOOD creatures until we choose to be BORN AGAIN by the Spirit of God, to become sons of God.
Because God so loved the world, His only begotten Son was born as FLESH AND BLOOD, into a world that (unknowingly at birth) was made by Him (Colossians chapter 1), but did not know Him. He even came unto His own people when He began His ministry, and they did not receive Him as Son of God sent to redeem the world back to God, even tho as a child they had called Him Emmanuel (God with us). “But as many as received Him—to them gave He power to become sons of God—even to them that believe in His name.”  ~John 1:12

So i wanted to do more Gods/Goddess's to go with my 3 sisters, and so i did Wenet:
Unut, also known as Wenut or Wenet, was a prehistoric Ancient Egyptian hare and snake goddess of fertility and new birth
because of this, i gave her more of an hour glass shape, with more emphasis on her chest and hips due to being a rabbit. On the human plane, she works as a nurse and has healer tendencies.
When she gets flustered, her ears and tail pop out. She is also prone to high anxiety attacks that could lead to palpitations that can cause serious harm.
i am working on her background :).
Wenet is also part of @the-slender-doll
cursed Gods univurse

When we look at our lives in light of scripture and the call of God, we realize that we have learned many things from our families of origin, from our schools and classmates, from our associates at work and from the omnipresent media that have shaped us - mis-shaped us, really - in the image of human brokenness rather than the image of divine fullness. The new birth [promised in baptism] provides us with the gift of making a break from the effects of that mis-shaping process and its hold on our lives… We are children once again, sitting with and learning to imitate the character and mannerisms of our heavenly Parent, who is present to us through his Holy Spirit: “all of us, with unveiled faces, seeing the glory of the Lord as though reflected in a mirror, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another” (2 Cor. 3:18).

13 Kawok (12th January 2024)
Healing comes from another realm today. If something is blocking your growth, ask for the assistance of spirit to wash it away.   This is potentially one of the most turbulent days within the sacred count of days, but my own experience of these days has rarely seen that aspect. In fact, it has usually fully embraced the new birth aspect. Chak sends the fire serpent (lightning) from the sky, from…

The New Birth
Neal Pollard “The signs” are a thread that run throughout the gospel of John. It is the signs observed by Nicodemus that brings this Pharisee to Jesus by night to speak with Him. He is a member of the Sanhedrin (7:50; 19:39), which is what John highlights by calling him a “ruler of the Jews” (cf. 7:48). The Sanhedrin, from the Greek word meaning “seated together,” was “a council in Jerusalem…
