John 3:5-6

Ephesians 4:22-24
“As for your former way of life, put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires, and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and put on the new self, created in God’s way in righteousness and holiness of truth.”

“I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.”
Reflection
In our earthly nature, we are separated from Christ.
Our fallen nature, the flesh, the old man, everything we inherited from Adam keeps us disconnected from our true identity. We live limited by the temporal, ruled by the visible, bound to an existence that is separate from God’s original design.
When we come to Christ in the spiritual world, we align ourselves with our heavenly nature.
This is not simply a change of religion or moral behavior. It is a profound spiritual alignment. It is reconnecting with who we were before the foundation of the world. It is returning to the Raquia where our star was established; it is activating the heavenly body that illuminates us from above.
This is where the new birth is completely different from the religious concepts we have.
Most religious concepts present the new birth as an improvement of the natural man, as a reform of behavior, as a commitment to moral principles. But the true new birth is something radically different.
It is not improving the earthly nature. It is dying to it and being born into a completely different nature.
Because when I am truly born of water and the Spirit, I will begin to move in my spiritual nature.
Being born of water is the death of the old man, the burial of what was separated from Christ. Being born of the Spirit is the activation of the heavenly nature, the connection with the spiritual body established before the foundation of the world.
When this happens genuinely, it is not only my behavior that changes. My nature changes. I do not just modify my behavior. I begin to move in a completely different dimension.
I no longer operate solely from an earthly perspective. I begin to operate from the heavenly places where I am seated with Christ. I no longer depend solely on what I see with my natural eyes. I begin to perceive the spiritual reality that governs the natural.
That which is born of the flesh is flesh. And that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
They are two distinct natures. They do not mix. They do not merge. The new birth is not adding something spiritual to the carnal. It is dying to the carnal and living from the spiritual.
I am crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.
This is the true new birth: the earthly self dies, and the heavenly nature, connected to Christ in the Raquia, is activated and governs my existence.
When this happens, the resurrection that dwells in my spirit and the light that comes from the Raquia upon me unite, and I begin to truly live as a child of God, moved by my spiritual nature, operating from my heavenly identity.
Meditation for today
Take a moment to reflect:
Have I truly been born of water and the Spirit, or do I only have a religious version of the gospel? Am I aligned with my heavenly nature, or do I still live dominated by my earthly nature? Do I move in my spiritual nature, or do I only try to improve my carnal nature?
Ask the Lord to activate in you the true new birth, to align you completely with your heavenly nature in Christ.
Prayer
Father, I recognize that in my earthly nature I am separated from Christ, but when I come to You in the spiritual world, I align myself with my heavenly nature.
I activate the true new birth, not as a religious concept, but as a profound spiritual reality.
I die to the old man, to the fallen nature, to everything that separates me from my heavenly identity.
I am born of water and the Spirit, and I begin to move in my spiritual nature, connected to the heavenly body that You established before the foundation of the world.
It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. My earthly nature has been crucified, and my heavenly nature rules my existence.
May the resurrection in my spirit and the light from the Raquia above
