1 Peter 2:9 (NKJV) 9 But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;
Let's remember today that Jesus didn’t come to give us salvation alone, but He rescued us from continuing to fall into sin every day.
We have been made holy by His blood, to live holy. To be His own special people and to shine brightly on this earth that others may see the goodness of God in us and through our actions.
We have been set free from sinful behaviors, and free to do the good things of God.
He has called us out of darkness and into His marvelous light. Living holy is the response of God’s chosen and special people.
Let us evaluate ourselves today. Are there things that we continue to do that are sinful and repetitive?
Of course we are not going to be perfect..
But let us encourage you today that you are not alone, and we all must work at this holy living. Know that we have been given the power to resist temptation and be free.
James 4:7 (NKJV) 7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
We have been called out of those ways, and into the goodness of God. Let us join together in prayer for each other to address the sin in our lives that continues to pull us backwards.
Amen.
