Many Christians live as if God imposes no standards: we have freedom in Christ, and God is all about grace. Yes, but we must not treat God’s grace lightly. . .
No matter how filthy we feel, we’re never more than a prayer away from being clean, as pure as if we never sinned. . .
Why do we sit back in our comfortable darling sins and wonder why God hasn’t sent a fresh wind of His Spirit? Could it be that our desire for revival is only rhetoric?
No one likes to be lied to. And after awhile, a liar is not believed. But there is one liar to whom we listen over and over. . .
Is it really okay to use bad language once in a while? God wants to cleanse and renew our hearts so that our speech will reflect the good treasure that is inside us. . .
If you have a consistent history in your relationships of quarreling, fighting, and relational disorder, check your heart for selfishness or jealousy. If you need to confess sin in your heart, do, then ask God for wisdom. . .
When we encounter Jesus, when we take Him at His Word and ask for His forgiveness, He removes the stain of sin. It’s gone. No guilt. No condemnation. . .
We have a Savior who freed us from the chains and bondage of sin. Search your heart for areas that you have strayed, then repent and return to your God. . .
There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. This means there is no room for guilt or blame in your life. When God looks at you, He doesn’t see your sins. . .
