“Create in me a clean heart O God and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from your presence and take not your holy spirit from me. The soul who sins shall die, but if a man is just and does what is lawful and right, if he has walked in my statutes faithfully, he is just and he shall surely live, says the Lord.”

Lord, because of all that you have done for me, because whenever I call you that you incline your ear to me; “I will lift up the cup of salvation and call upon the name of the Lord, I will fulfill my vows to the Lord, in the presence of all his people. Lord, I am your servant and the child of your handmaid, you have freed me from my bonds. I will offer you the sacrifice of thanksgiving.”

My brothers and sisters in Christ, all of us have someone whom we look up to, someone we admire. There are some television shows that we watch faithfully, some activity that we carve time out for. Why then, is it so hard to follow Jesus? The people we admire will die, the season will end for the television shows, and the activities that we carve time out for, will never make us as happy, as when we carve time out for God, when we adore him, and when we follow him obediently. Will you make a decision today to follow Jesus?

All of us who have been saved, should be telling out our souls the goodness of the Lord; His great love for us, his tender mercies towards us, and for forgiving us of our numerous transgressions. Lord, you died at Calvary to purchase our pardon. How could we ever repay you? Lord, I am giving up every earthly, sinful, pleasure, in exchange for a closer walk with you. Thank you, Lord, for saving me!

But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, proved His love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, and if you believe, by grace, you will be saved through faith, and this not from yourselves; it will be the gift from God, but you have to be open to receive this gift. Would you be freed?

My brothers and sisters in Christ, unless one is born again, he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, knowing this, will you be born again? I once was lost but now I am found, I was blind, but now I see, and I thank God for the gift of new birth, I thank God for saving me! Praise the Lord!

That thinking is wrong, and so many of us had that same mindset, until we came to know and trust the Savior. He is wonderfully kind, full of mercy and grace. No matter where we have been or what we have done, when we fall humbly before him, he will always lift us up. Thank you, Lord!

“He who believes that Jesus is the Son of God, has overcome the world. Our faith in God overcomes the world. And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us an understanding, that we may know Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life. He who has the Son of God has life and he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.”

‘I will lead blind Israel down a new path, guiding them along an unfamiliar way. I will brighten the darkness before them and smooth out the road ahead of them. Yes, I will indeed do these things; I will not forsake them. Whereas you have been forsaken and hated with no one passing through, I will make you an everlasting pride, A joy from generation to generation. Then your light will break out like the dawn, and your recovery will speedily spring forth; and your righteousness will go before you; the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard. Every valley shall be filled in, and every mountain and hill made low. The crooked ways shall be made straight, and the rough ways smooth, and all mankind will see the salvation of the Lord.”

Lord, we seek righteousness and have turned to you for the answers that we need and you have responded. You reminds us in Psalm 51, that, we could abide in Your tabernacle and dwell in Your holy hill if we walk uprightly and work righteousness, speak truth from our hearts, if we do not backbite with our tongue, nor commit evil acts towards our neighbor, nor take up a reproach against our friends. If we despise a vile person, honors those who fear the Lord, do not put out our money in usury, nor takes a bribe against the innocent; he who does these things shall not be moved. Praise the Lord!
