Spiritual warfare is often misunderstood because it is approached from the wrong posture. Scripture does not call us to strive, chase, or exhaust ourselves in battle — it commands us to stand. “Having done all, to stand.” Authority is not frantic movement; it is immovable alignment. The believer who knows where they stand does not need to prove anything to darkness.

The new creation life reshapes how we see people. Understanding our identity in Yeshua (Jesus) does not draw us inward; it turns our gaze outward with heaven’s perspective. When we know who we are, we begin to see others as God sees them — not as problems to avoid, but as people to love, restore, and defend. Compassion and justice are not optional virtues; they are expressions of the very nature of Yeshua flowing through His people.

As we walk deeper into our walk, we come face to face with a reality that cannot be ignored: the old nature does not quietly step aside. It must be put off. It must be denied. It must be crucified.

Your old identity didn’t get repaired — it got crucified. Scripture declares, “If anyone is in Messiah, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new” (2 Corinthians 5:17).

At the heart of redemption stands the cross — not merely a symbol of suffering, but the place of divine exchange where heaven met humanity. On that hill, everything that separated mankind from God came face-to-face with His holiness and love. Our sin, our shame, our striving, and every false identity we ever carried were nailed there. In that sacred moment, the broken reflection of humanity was exchanged for the radiant image of the Son. As Paul writes, “For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him” (2 Corinthians 5:21).

Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, is the holiest day on the biblical calendar. On this day the High Priest entered the Most Holy Place once a year, “not without blood,” to make atonement for the sins of Israel (Leviticus 16:34). Heaven’s books were opened, sins laid bare, and forgiveness sought through sacrifice.
