Then and Now

“He shall make an atonement for the holy place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions in all their sins” – Leviticus 16:16

Sin is a revolt against God’s holy and sovereign will, and it therefore destroys all fellowship with Him. To try to restore this fellowship through religious observance or good deeds is useless, for these leave the root of the problem untouched.

Sincere Giving

Whatsoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted – Matthew 23:12.

The Oxford College Dictionary defines “sincere” as “free from pretense or deceit; proceeding from genuine feelings”.

Time of Prayer

Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them – Mark 11:24

God of Heaven, and earth, as we come before You today, we ask that You would forgive us of any sins we may have committed against You. If we have any unforgiveness or resentment towards anyone, we chose to forgive them. If the offense is still in our heart, please forgive us and wash it from our hearts, we don’t want anything in our heart, mind, will or spirit that is contrary to Your word. Thank You Father, for releasing us and cleansing us as we forgive.
