Devotional - 23rd Dec 2020

 'Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, thou hast covered all their sin' (Psalm 85:2).

In this life, we will not fully understand the theme of redemption, but will certainly understand more in the hereafter, as the redeemed of God. It behoves us to comprehend the atoning sacrifice and meditorial work of Christ, our incarnate God. This will give us great insight of the love of God for His people and his plan to redeem us and restore us to our rightful position. We all have a sin problem which separated us from God, and it is through the atoning blood of Christ that we can be reconciled back to Him. God is merciful and forgiving. It is through Jesus that our sins can be pardoned. He paid it all for us on Calvary as sin had left a crimson stain on us - on our hearts, and it was Jesus's blood that washed it white as snow. Know this, that when you come to God confessing your sins, He is faithful and just to forgive you and cleanse you from all those sins. Israel angered God time and time again, as a result He allow them to go in captivity. When they cry out to Him earnestly and sincerely, asking for pardon, He hears them and forgives their sins and iniquities. He took their iniquities away from their conscience, by the blood of the lamb and covers those sins that it no longer comes into judgement. God is always in the business of saving His people, and is doing it for us right now. When we transgress against God our sins and iniquity deserve punishment - we should pay for the consequences of those sin. But when we call upon Jesus, our Saviour, Redeemer and High Priest to forgive us of our sins; He plead His precious blood to the Father on our behalf and  we are pardon and forgiven, because God is merciful and His mercy endures forever. It is only God who can forgive the iniquity of His people and atone for our sins through the blood of Jesus; that even His omniscience eye see it no more because the vail of His love covers all. What an awesome God we serve! He not only covers our sins, but He cures us and removes our sins altogether. Let us ask God to forgive our iniquity and cover all our sins and to help us to make it into His kingdom.

Have a wonderful day 🌹🌹

 Devotional 'The Lord is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed' (Psalm 28:8). The Lord our God is the glory of our strength, and in His name we shall rejoice all the day. The Lord is our strength, and the saving strength of His anointed. It is through Christ our anointed that all our blessings come to us. Here we see David, who is a type of our Lord Jesus, praising God. What about you? Christ had done much for us and has achieved full salvation for us, therefore, praise Him! We, like Israel are encouraged that the Lord is our Strength and salvation. When we seek to be in a  relationship with God, He will protect us from our enemies and save us from the crutches of Satan. Just as how Satan attempts to destroy Christ many times, whilst he was on earth, God  saved him and will do the same for us. Christ died to save us all, but it is those who trust Him and have a saving relationship with him that will spend eternity with. He is our High Priest, and J...

 'I protest by your rejoicing  which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily' (1 Corinthians 15:31). Christ our Lord came and died for each and everyone to save us from the bondage of sin. He lived on this earth, ministered to the needs of all who He encountered; He was crucified, and resurrected and is now interceding for us, as our High Priest in Heaven. What if there was no resurrection? What would be the implications for God's people? The preaching of the gospel would be a lie, our faith would be worthless and we would all have remained in our sin. Paul is saying, there would be no cause to his dying daily, or for any one who believed and accept Jesus as their personal Saviour to die daily. Paul was expecting death at any time for Christ's sake. He was constantly in peril of his life, he encountered extreme sufferings and was beset with death. He was willing to die at anytime and in any way for Christ's sake. He did not count his life dear unto himself, but...

 'The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing' (Zephaniah 3 17). What an amazing and wonderful God we serve, who is mighty to save. The Lord our God is with us and is mighty to save. He will take great delight in us and will quiet us with his love, and also rejoice over us with singing. We didn't have to do anything for God to love us, he did because he created us and we are His. He created us and loves us just as we are. Even when we did not deserve it, the Lord took delight in us. What an awesome God! He is present in the midst of us, loving and caring for us. He protects and defend us; died to save us from sin, so we can have life and have it more abundant. He is mighty to save us from fears; our enemies and the bondage of sin and death. We all need a Saviour, Christ the Lord, who is the cure for our problems and the antidote to sin. Christ has already won ...
