Morning Devotional November 9, 2015


Galatians 1:10


“For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.”

As we begin a new week, let us not forget whose we are. Let us not forget who we are here in this world to represent. Those of us who have been saved are children of God. We are no longer imprisoned by this world. Thou at times we may act like it or even seek that which we have been saved from. We must remember who we belong to now. Not who we once were or what we once desired as a slave to sin. As a child of God we are joint-heirs with Jesus Christ. He shed his blood on the cross to save us from our sins. Past, present, and future sins. Yet how many times do we run back to those sins with no regard for the sacrifice that was given to save us from the very sins we commit.

O what wretched sinners we are. O how our old flesh deceives us daily into lusting after those things we have no business desiring. Oh that we would seek to serve God instead of men or ourselves.

O child of God, as we start this new week, seek His face. Pray to our Heavenly Father to guide you on your journey through the old wicked world. Pray for His protection as you go out to face those who are dead in their trespasses and sins. Pray our God will protect you from the temptations of the devil, our great advisory.

Rejoice for our Lord is gracious to forgive us of all our sin. Rejoice for He is good and righteous to those who love Him and who follow His commandments. And if we love Him those commandments will not be grievous but will come easy. Let those around you see your love of your Father. Let them have no doubt of whose you are and where you are going.

 

Praise ye the Lord!!!
