Goodbye, yesterday.
I’m living in the light of a new day.
I won’t waste another minute in my old ways.
Praise the Lord, I’ve been born again.

Goodbye, yesterday.
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me.
I’ve got resurrection in my veins.
Praise the Lord, I’ve been born again.

Again and again and again and again,
You rescued me out of the mess I was in.
You traded my sorrow for something to sing.
Now I’m dancing on the grave that I once lived in. Elevation Rhythm and Gracie Binion

The church I attend in Louisiana hosted their annual international ministers conference this week, and I was blessed to be able to attend every session.

The worship team and choir at the church had been practicing this song by Elevation Worship so it has been echoing in my mind since last week, but the final service of the conference Thursday night was an extremely powerful praise and worship experience that embedded the words in my spirit even deeper.

The Master Key Experience has truly been a light to illuminate the path to a new way, a new day, a new future. I gladly say goodbye to the old person I used to be, and I sure don’t want to waste any more time in those old ways.

With the focus and passion of my DMP in my mind and heart, I have been renewed or born again to experience life at a higher level.

There is life where there was decay.
There is blessing where there was chaos.
There is joy where there was sadness.
There is singing where there was weeping.

The shell of the old self that was holding me in darkness and despair has opened to release the new creature I have become like a butterfly emerging from the chrysalis after a seemly interminable time of darkness and confinement.

Goodbye, yesterday.
I’m living in the light of a new day.
