THE RECREATED HUMAN SPIRIT

Ephesians 2:10 For we are God's [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live]. (AMP)

The scripture above says we were recreated in Christ Jesus. That implies that we were first created, otherwise we wouldn't have been recreated. In Genesis the Bible tells us that God created man, Genesis 1:27 So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.
But man sinned and fell short of the glory and purpose of God, hence God had to recreate the human spirit. This time, man was created in Christ Jesus. 

Your spirit within you is a brand new one, a type that never existed before. The new creation really has nothing to do with your physical body but your spirit. Through the knowledge of the Word you can put on the new creation and walk in it as your new self.
Ephesians 4:24 And put on the new nature (the regenerate self) created in God's image, [Godlike] in true righteousness and holiness.

Righteousness is the nature of God. And you are like God in true rightousness and holiness.
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!

Live the new. Having been born again you have a new heart and nature, the very nature of God, the old is gone don't try to be it. Walk in the newness of life in Christ Jesus. And this new you is God's handiwork recreated in Christ Jesus for good works, those works which God has predestined and made ready for you to do and live the life He prepared for you. Glory to God!

CONFESSION

I am recreated in Christ Jesus to be like God in true rightousness and holiness. I am created to do those good works which God prepared ahead of time for me, taking paths and living the good life which He brought me into, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
