January 14, 2013

By reading the scripture above each day you will read the Old Testament through in one year and the New Testament through twice in a year. This will change your life. Start Today!  

TODAY'S SCRIPTURE  
"But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin." (1 John 1:7)

TODAY'S WORD   
, during the day, the devil may whisper in your head, "You cannot go into God's presence because you have not been reading your Bible and serving in church." Or he will tell you that it is because of the sin which you have just committed.

The devil will always make you feel that you are not qualified or clean enough to go near God. But the truth is, regardless of how you feel and what you have done, the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses us from all sin.

In the original Greek text, the tense for the word "cleanses" denotes a present continuous action. This means that once you are a believer, the blood of Jesus Christ keeps on cleansing you from every sin!

So you can rest knowing that you are always forgiven in this continuous "wash cycle" of Jesus' blood. Because you are continually cleansed, you are always in the light. Of course, you will fail here and there, but you are still in the light because the blood is continuously washing you!

Some Christians are guilt-ridden because their consciousness of their sins condemns them. Although Jesus' blood continuously cleanses them, they would rather hold on to their past mistakes and feel bad about them, thinking that they are being humble and holy when they do this. But this is nothing more than self-righteousness.

, the eternal blood of Jesus Christ offers you eternal redemption and everlasting righteousness. Accept the payment of His blood as the final, perfect and only sacrifice you will ever need!

A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY   

Father God, thank You for the blood of your Son Jesus in my life. I choose today not to walk in a spirit of condemnation, but in the grace given me through Jesus. Thank you that each day you continue to cleanse me in Jesus' name. Amen.

, we really do love you and we pray this will be the best year ever!
