Post-o-Matic 3.16† 0 Report post Posted July 8, 2009 Morning If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. I know my transgressions, and my sin is ever before me. Against you, you only, have I sinned and done what is evil in your sight. “And he arose and came to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt compassion, and ran and embraced him and kissed him.”—I have blotted out your transgressions like a cloud and your sins like mist; return to me, for I have redeemed you.—Your sins are forgiven for his name's sake.—God in Christ forgave you.—So that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. “I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean.”—“They will walk with me in white, for they are worthy.” This is he who came by water and blood—Jesus Christ; not by the water only but by the water and the blood. 1 John 1:9; Ps. 51:3, 4; Luke 15:20; Isa. 44:22; 1 John 2:12; Eph. 4:32; Rom. 3:26; Ezek. 36:25; Rev. 3:4; 1 John 5:6 (Read full verses...) Evening Can wicked rulers be allied with you? Indeed our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.—Beloved, we are God's children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is. And everyone who thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure. “The ruler of this world is coming. He has no claim on me.”—A high priest, holy, innocent, unstained. We do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.—The prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience. We know that everyone who has been born of God does not keep on sinning, but he who was born of God protects him, and the evil one does not touch him. We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one. Ps. 94:20; 1 John 1:3; 1 John 3:2, 3; John 14:30; Heb. 7:26; Eph. 6:12; Eph. 2:2; 1 John 5:18, 19 (Read full verses...) << Jul 7 | Jul 8 | Jul 9 >> Excerpted from Daily Light on the Daily Path ©2002 Crossway Books, a publishing ministry of Good News Publishers.
