Daily scripture and thoughts




In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, (Ephesians 1:7 ESV)


Dear Ones-
This verse is a reminder of the cleansing we receive by His Blood, being set free from sin. But also that it is HIS blood and grace is His to give. We have the responsibility to receive that gift with thanksgiving realizing the gift it really is in our lives.

Truth be told many times we forsake the gift, and continue in our state of sin. We make a mockery of His sacrifice. We think by saying "forgive me Lord" but never changing, still living and doing what we know goes against His Word that we should continue to receive favor and we even have the nerve to think we should receive blessings as if His sacrifice isn't enough to make us turn from sin and forsake our flesh.

Lord forgive us of our Pride-- forgive us for continually making a mockery of Your Son's sacrifice. Penetrate our hearts- change us Lord so that we may stand before your throne cleansed. Help us to not only know Your Word but live it.

In Jesus Name
Amen

He works at an amusement park, and is around people all day long who standards, or morals do not quite match what we(through God's grace) have tried to instill in him. All day long he is whispered at about what he should have, and what he should be doing at "his age".  Today while reading the Word these verses stood out.... Proverbs 23 15  My son, if thine heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine. 16  Yea, my reins shall rejoice, when thy lips speak right things. 17  Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the  Lord  all the day long His heart started to "envy" what these whisperers were saying to him and started to feel like he has been missing out on something in life.  Really?  How do we envy sinners?  How do we as professing believers say "
