Morning Line: Accepted Dirty Cleaned by Grace
Our Father God looks at the intent of the heart and says, “Come to me; I will give you rest.”
“ Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up. James 4:7-10 (NKJV)
Humility brings healing.
Don’t be double-minded. The moment you ‘come near to God,’ you become aware of your condition. The good news is God doesn’t demand you clean up before He will respond to you! All your attempts at self-improvement won’t work. Because His grace and mercy are the only basis on which He can relate to you. Through Christ Jesus, they are fully available.
Your promise is: Ephesians 2:8-9 “For by grace you have been saved through faith and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. “
Thank God we don’t have to work our way or by our way in, It’s a 100% free gift by asking and receiving Christ Jesus in.
God’s Spirit and Word bring light on our weak areas not to condemn us, but to cleanse us. He knows that dirty hands enable satan to accuse us before Him so He tells you to wash your hands, ‘and do not give the devil a foothold’ (Ephesians 4:27 NIV).
Once you’ve confessed your sins and been cleansed, you can look satan in the eye and say, ‘Hit the road. Your heart generates and stores your beliefs, constructive and destructive. Once you form a belief you begin to live it out.
Romans 10:10 (NRSVCE) “ For one believes with the heart and so is justified, and one confesses with the mouth….”
Like King David and pray ‘Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a steadfast spirit within me’ Psalms 51:10 When you pray that way, God will cleanse you, clothe you with power, and cause you to walk in victory. Remember Jesus Christ is committed to your best, trust Him and you will find it.
You matter your Story matters live expectantly!
Trust God, Trust His Love, Trust His “Word”, Trust the Process
