God's Words of Wisdom from the Bible for Monday 11 April 2011

"Greetings Everyone in the Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"

Today's Bible Verse: Romans 3:23-26  "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.  Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God set forth as a propitiation by his blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God has passed over the sins that were previously committed to demonstrate  at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus".

In verse 23 we are told that because of sin, we cannot live up to what God created us to be, so we fall short of His glory.  We cannot save ourselves, because as sinners, we can never meet God's requirements.  Our only hope, is faith in Jesus Christ.

Verse 24 tells us that those who believe are justified freely with out cost by God's grace.  By paying the penalty for our sins on the cross, Jesus can free us from our sins and give us righteousness, so that we can approach God's throne with praise. 

Verses 25 and 26 tell us that by His death, Christ satisfied the justice of God on the cross of Calvary.  God is righteous and at the same time the only one who can declare sinners righteous.  Because of Christ's death and His shed blood, God does not compromise His Holiness when He forgives a sinner.

Today's Hymn: "Redeemed How I love to Proclaim It" (verse 4)

I know there's a crown that is waiting,  In yonder bright mansion for me
And soon, with the spirits made perfect, At home with the Lord I shall be
Redeemed, Redeemed
Redeemed by the blood of the lamb
Redeemed, redeemed
His child and forever I am.

Heavenly Father,  How we thank you that you have made us righteous through the blood of Your son Jesus Christ.  How thankful we as Believers can come before you through Your Son.  May we always remember that the only thing that can wash away our sins, is the blood of Jesus.

                                                                                                                     Amen

Today's Biblical Truth: "Because of God's unending love and because of the shed blood of Jesus Christ, we as Believers have been restored to a proper relationship with Him" 

Have God Filled and Spirit Led Day.  Go in Peace ad Serve the Lord with Gladness.  Love God More Today and always remember that when you have a spiritual dilemma in your life and you yell out, "I CAN'T",  God whispers to you, "BUT I CAN".

Yours in Christ,
Cindi
