PRESUMED GUILTY! – Romans 3:23 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

PRESUMED GUILTY​​​!

Romans 3:23 – Devotional

Romans 3:23

“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”“

In the U.S., as in most other nations, a person is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. This has produced a mentality that demands that we be proven guilty before we actually are adjudged guilty. As kids we may be accused of some minor indiscretion and cry out, “Prove it!”

When we look into God’s word we discover that we have all been born into sin and are sinners by nature. That means we are not the innocent little creatures that some picture infants to be until they are contaminated by a sinful world.

That fact that we are guilty from the beginning, as a result of Adam’s sin, reveals that we need to be redeemed. Redemption must be provided by a totally sinless human. The only sinless human was and is Jesus Christ.

We are guilty until our sins are confessed and we invite Jesus to come into our heart and become our Savior. He was both God and man and He was not guilty from the beginning, but He became sin that we might have redemption. We are guilty until His blood is applied to our life. Praise the Lord!

Blessings dear hearts! Walk with God today and be a blessing!

SWIFT TO HEAR! – James 1:19-20 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

SWIFT TO HEAR​​​!

James 1:19-20 – Devotional

James 1:19-20

“So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God.“

Many years ago I was attending a Christian Counselors Conference. One of the speakers related a counseling session he had with a man who was angry at his wife. He ranted and raved about how sloppy she was and how she neglected her duties of keeping the house clean and orderly.

As the counselor listened to the man tear his wife apart, he was silently praying for words with which to respond to the man. It suddenly became very quiet in the room and the counselor realized that the man was finished. Now it was the counselor’s turn to respond.

The counselor surprised the husband by agreeing with him, saying that he was married to such a terrible wife. Immediately the husband rose to his wife’s defense. He began to praise her for having a loving nature and spending time loving her family instead of cleaning. The husband left with a new view of his wife.

Are you looking for the good in others or are you so focused on their faults that you forget their strong qualities? Go for the gold and look for the best!
