“If we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.” 1 John 1:7
As we draw near to the Lord and live for him, two amazing blessings come our way.
First, we find that our sins are forgiven and we’re cleansed of those sins thanks to the loving sacrifice of Jesus.
Second, we find that we are not alone in this wonderful cleansing. True fellowship among believers is built when folks seeking the Lord find each other in his presence.
This fellowship isn’t forced or contrived, just heavenly.
True Justice
This is what the LORD Almighty says: “Administer true justice; show mercy and comsasion to one another. Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, the alien or the poor. In your hearts do not think evil of each other.” Zechariah 7:9-10
Do you want a clear, simple, straightforward word from the Lord today? That’s what Zechariah gives us. He reminds us that God wants us to be fair, compassionate, caring, without prejudice, and tenderhearted to those in need, and to give each other the benefit of the doubt.
In other words, he wants us to treat each other like Christ treated people. Why? Because we can’t be right with God and be wrong with people!
Matthew 9:26
With God all things are possible!
John 9:4
I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
Think it over:
. Anxiety happens when you think you have to figure everything out. Turn to God. He has a plan.
. God answers when you least expect it.
Evangelism:
If not you and me, who else? If not here and now, where and how?
