Dearly beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The blessed word that Lord has given me to bless you today is from the book of Romans 6:23, “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord”. In order to avoid death and condemnation from God, you need to keep yourself away from all sins. King David says, in Psalm 51:5, “Behold I was brought forth in iniquity and in sin my mother conceived me.” Being conceived in sin, King David asks God to cleanse him from all his sinful nature. He says, ‘Lord purge me with hyssop and I shall be clean’.
To get out of the bondage of sin, you must first arise from your situation. The Lord is asking the sinners to come out of their sinful life. The Lord has given unto you the strength to overcome the power of the satan. When you do something wrong, you must repent for what you did and ask the Lord for forgiveness. The Lord will forgive you. After asking for forgiveness, you must not commit the same mistake again. Jesus loves you. Submit yourself unto the Lord and sin no more. He does not want anyone to fall into the trap of sin and perish. He wants you to lead a righteous life and set an example to others.
The Lord says, in Isaiah 1:18, “Though your sins are like scarlet. They shall be as white as snow. Though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool”. Our God is a God of forgiveness. He is ready to forgive our sins and trespasses, if we submit ourselves to Him. Christ died for our sins on the cross so that we may be set free. Colossians 2:14,15 says, “Jesus Christ took away all the power of satan on the cross. Jesus nailed all our sins on the cross. He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.”
Do not get yourself entangled in sinful activities. Repent for your sins and the Lord will deliver you from all the evil forces.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. I pray that You may give strength to Your children to come out of their sinful life. Father, please forgive their sins and remember their sins no more. Let them enjoy Your mercy and grace. Fill their hearts with Your love. In Jesus name we pray,
Amen.
