Today’s Reading: 1 Corinthians 6:9-11
Today’s Verse: And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. 1 Corinthians 6:11 KJV
Today’s reading is not one being chosen to make light of anyone’s past or present lifestyle.
It is to remind us of His saving grace.
That we still have a chance to make things right in our lives.
We can all find ourselves somewhere on Paul’s list in First Corinthians.
It only takes one of them to be considered a sin.
The Word tells us, “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23 KJV).
It is a universal state in which all humanity has sinned and fallen short of God’s perfect standards.
Jesus was the only one that was perfect. The only one that is free from sin.
He came, bled, and died to help us learn that we can live a sin-free life.
His desire is that we live a sinless life through Him.
Reaping the blessing of His Holiness, Majesty, and Divine Presence.
It will happen when we confess our sin and accept the gift of eternal life. The one paid for by the death of Jesus.
“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new” (2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV).
We are washed, sanctified, and justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. (1 Corinthians 6:11 KJV).
Let us never forget His promise of salvation through Christ. It will always offer us the possibility of restoration and reconciliation with God.
There is a wonderful change through His gospel. A wonderful grace of God is made in our lives.
A WORD OF PRAYER
All who are made righteous in the sight of God, are made holy by the grace of God. Sin no longer has dominion in our lives. We were washed by the mighty sacrifice made by Jesus. We have been sanctified and justified in His name. When we gave our lives to Him, He touched us and made us whole. May we continue to confess our sins. To continue to live according to the Word. Always working to receive His gift of eternal life. Thank You God for forgiving our sins. For giving guidance on how to live holy. What a wonderful change You make in our lives.
In Jesus Name We Pray, Amen
