Romans 6 is a powerful chapter that I have been committing to memory. Since I finished meditating through Psalm 119 twice, I’ve started meditating on Romans 6. Verse 4 uses the words newness of life. What is it?

When I meditate I break it down into tiny particles. Newness of life is living IN Christ, in the same power that God used to raise Jesus from the dead. John 10:10 says that He came to give us abundant life. Ephesians 3:20 is about His power that is working in us. 

Ephesians 1:19 says, “…the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His might power.” Hebrews 13:21 says, “…working in you what is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ…” He works His resurrection power in us, like a wheel potter works water into clay to make it moldable.
