Christ has called His followers to be sanctified. This means to be set apart, to be holy. What sin remains in your life that needs to be removed?

Hand Him the pieces, the missteps, the blunders, and watch what God can do with your brokenness.

God has given us all we need in order to be saved. I pray you recognize that today.

Only salvation through faith in Jesus Christ, the Son of God can cleanse us from within.

As a follower of Christ, we can rest in the finished work of Jesus. He is the light of the world and in Him can be no darkness.

Today, Jesus offers us the same opportunity. He knows what’s on our minds and in our hearts. The door is wide open, we must only confess our sins and repent.

One thing happened. One thing was added to this man and he was changed completely.

Time and time again, He has proven His power and love for us. And we, too, can be healed if we put our trust in Him and ask.

Now, you know exactly what Jesus did for you. It’s time to decide.

We may be tempted to take the easy way out when we feel pain, hurt, uneasiness, discomfort or trouble. But because of what Jesus endured on the cross, we can trust in Him and His sacrifice and stand strong.

He’s here. He’s offering to take that burden of sin from you. Don’t hold onto it. Let it go. Let Jesus help you in your greatest need. Let Him do for you what you can’t.

One day, there will be no choice. It will be too late. All will bow, but some will be in fear, realizing the King that is before them is the very one they have mocked, belittled and cursed their whole lives.

Jesus did this for us. He took our punishment upon Himself so that we could be freed from our sin.

Lead us, Lord, in the way that is everlasting!

In the cover of darkness is where sin reigns. But when the light shines, the darkness flees.

I’m grateful my father stepped in to pay that debt so that I could be freed from the sin and punishment.

Until we recognize our need for a Savior, we will never understand who He truly is.

Will we deny His truth and decide to do what we think or feel is right? Or will we choose Jesus, His truth, His way, and His love?

The same love that He showed for His betrayer Judas, He shows to you and me.

They had heard their Captain speaking, they had been warned, and yet, they chose to do their own thing.

Make that commitment today. The commitment to follow what the Lord had originally intended for marriage, before our sin polluted it.

So what do we do? If we have been forgiven so great a debt, one that we cannot repay, time and time again, what should we do when someone wrongs us? Forgive.

We can dress it up, make it look beautiful, appealing, delightful, and inviting, but if anyone were to see the inside of each of us, would they be shocked? The only thing that can change our heart is Jesus.

Sometimes the Lord does not intervene immediately when we sin. He is patiently waiting for us to confess our sin and turn away from it, choosing His way over our own. But just because He may seem or feel silent does not mean He approves of our sin.

Resolving conflict is not easy. However, if we hear out the other side of the story, many times, the truth is revealed and a fight can be avoided.

Repentance begins in our heart.

Attempting to hide from God is as old as the garden, so try resolutions and honest communication instead of a slow fade.

When it comes to obeying God, we may outwardly obey him but our hearts are far from being glad about it.

It’s not what’s at the surface that allows the new growth to thrive and succeed, but it’s at the root.

If you want to be a light for Christ while you’re in college, don’t assume you can ignore the Christian ones.

Humanity is messed up by nature, but many make the mistake of thinking we are good enough.

What does sin gain? Any satisfaction from it is only temporary. The only thing eternal about sin is the death that it brings.

Have you ever had to deal with a thorn bush in your life? It started out as a seed, a seemingly tiny sin, planted in your heart. You knew it was wrong, yet, you liked it. And you allowed it to stay. Instead of confessing it to the Lord and turning from it, you ignored it, and it began to take root.

Yes, he was rich. Yes, he was wise. But his fall was one of the most epic in the entire Bible.

God, rich in mercy, sent His Son Jesus Christ, to take our place. On the cross, the Lord chose to take on all our sins.

God is clear in His design. He created Adam as a man with a specific body and role. He created Eve as a woman with a unique body and role to her. This was His design. Perfect. Flawless. And as mankind chose to disobey God, sin entered into the world. And we are still battling it today.

Return to the Lord. Forget the things of this world that tempt you and lure you from Him. We are the bride of Christ and should live holy lives, devoted to Him, and Him alone. God is faithful to forgive. Return to Him.

Contrary to popular belief, the sin nature begins at birth, but we can be to be equipped to to beat it with with God’s armor.

What have you allowed to stay in your life that keeps luring you away from God? Now is the time to remove it, completely. Not for a time, but permanently. If it continues to cause you to sin it has to go.

The Christian worldview has been completely rejected by many people, but God is still on his throne and we still have a command to share Truth.

Our sin has earned us death. BUT – We can have victory over sin by accepting the gift of salvation that Jesus Christ offers us!

Because we know better. We have a duty to study the word of God, as it was intended, and to teach accordingly.

Jesus took every sin you and I have ever committed and suffered and died for it. He offers you freedom from that sin!

How often do you put your action where your mouth is when it comes to loving and serving others?

Everyone faces the mostly losing battle of temptations, so why does God tempt us?

Even if we try to cover up our sin, it comes out eventually.

Showing grace and mercy to someone who has caused deep hurt is one of the hardest things you’ll ever do.

God doesn’t intend for us to live in bondage to our past sins.

When you’re haunted by the sins of your past, keep moving forward to Christ.

One of the most familiar verses in the Bible, let’s not water down the impact and importance of it.
