New Creation Celebration - Replacing Emotions is a part of our "Spiritual Transformation Series." It is a meditation which produces personal transformation as we gaze upon the new creation realities of who we are in Christ.
The Lord told me "Whatever you gaze upon grows within you, and whatever grows within you, you become." This powerful principle explains why gazing upon my new self in Christ during my devotional times produces such amazing changes. I found a week of this meditation replaced fear of an upcoming interpersonal encounter with faith for a miracle, and sure enough, that miracle occurred in the meeting because I was sending out a signature of faith and not fear.

What problem does it solve?
Problem: I am looking for a way I can soar in the Spirit every time I pray, and come away brimming with faith. Plus, I want to replace negative emotions with Kingdom emotions because I understand that stressful emotions contribute to 90% of adult illness.
Solution: This meditation provides:
- The opportunity to gaze upon your New Creation self until Kingdom emotions and faith arise.
- A coach at your side ensuring every necessary step is taken to experience successful, heart-transforming, healing, daily encounters with God.
Sometimes I forget to take steps I know I am supposed to take. Sometimes I haven’t been taught what steps to take. Reading a book is not what I desire. I just want to be taken by the hand and led into the experience so I can encounter God’s healing touch. That is what the New Creation Celebration - Replacing Emotions does.

Try it for a week, and experience its transforming impact. Achieving our God-ordained destinies and experiencing spiritual or physical healing is most often a process. I generally need to encounter God more than once to fully receive and appropriate His promised results. So try this daily for a week and see if things have not changed in your heart and in your life.

Reflecting on the need to HONOR and live in Kingdom emotions
Over my lifetime I have moved from scorning emotions, to
accepting them, and now to HONORING them.
The challenge is to learn to feel and move in the power of Kingdom emotions!
Do you have a theology concerning the role of Kingdom emotions in bringing forth spiritual transformation? I didn’t. Actually, I used to scorn emotions as soulish. Then when I began two-way journaling 37 years ago, God told me there was a place for emotions, reminding me that Jesus, moved by compassion, healed (Matt. 14:14). So I accepted that there was a place for them.
Now, God is taking me one step further, showing me that the Kingdom emotions of compassion, gratitude and thankfulness are crucial in bringing forth the blessings, miracles and transformations He desires for my life.
Wow, from scorn to a celebrated place of importance! Be nice if it didn’t take you the full 50 years it took me to make these moves. One key I began to observe is that faith, coupled with Kingdom emotions, releases the energy required to overcome the hardwired circuits in my mind and body, bringing forth miracles and transformations. I have come to the conclusion that:
Miracles occur when revelation,
Is carried on the waves of compassion,
And crowned with the aroma of gratitude.
What does Scripture say about emotions? I began searching Scripture to see what it says about elevated emotion. Was I in for a shock! Here is one Scripture which sums it all up: “faith working through love” (Gal. 5:6 – the literal meaning of “working through” is “energized by”). There are over 600 occurrences of the words, faith, believe and love in the New Testament.
How much time should I give to this? Obviously faith, belief and love, as discussed in Scripture, are enormous topics to wrestle with and to integrate into our lives. I have desired for years to explore the dynamic of faith energized by love. Jesus, moved by compassion, healed (Matt. 14:14). I was to come to recognize that compassion is the carrier wave on which the power of the Holy Spirit rides, producing miracles. Faith energized by love produces miracles.
New Creation Celebration – Replacing Emotions gives God the opportunity to grow within you His Kingdom emotions which release within you His Kingdom's power.

Four days after leaving the hospital from my heart bypass surgery, I met for the first time with a nurse practitioner at the office of my “functional medicine” MD, Dr. Jose Fernandez who was recommended to me by my chiropractor. She told us to purchase a $30 blood pressure monitor and check my blood pressure morning and evening. I did. You can also purchase one from Amazon.
I saw it steadily going down, which concerned me. So I called the hospital where the surgery was performed and talked to the head nurse on the floor I was on. She informed me the first of the two numbers given in a blood pressure test is the number to be concerned about and it should not go below 90 (I was still at 92.) The first number (systolic) is your blood pressure when the heart beats and pressure is exerted in the arteries, and the second number (diastolic) is blood pressure between each heartbeat when the heart is at rest and not pumping blood into the arteries.
While in the hospital recovering from bypass surgery, I found the most effective prayers I prayed were those using imagery, where I saw the prayer need already met by my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and we were celebrating together in a field. Since I grew up on a dairy farm, I LOVE open grassy fields. We were laughing and having fun!
