Isaiah 48:10

In Case You’re Not Perfect

08/12/2024

Is there anything about you that isn’t perfect? If you are perfect, congratulations. I’m not. As a matter of fact, the closer I grow to Christ, the more aware I am of sin in my life. If you, like me, are mindful of your sin, Malachi 3:3 has some encouraging words: “He [the Lord] will purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, so that they may present to the Lord offerings in righteousness.”

What good news! As Christ’s priests (1 Peter 2:9), we have confidence in our refiner who is extracting sin from our lives. He is purifying us so we can stand before Him one day, perfect, presenting to Him offerings in righteousness.

Thank You, Lord, for being our REFINER. We look forward to heaven when we stand sinless before You and present to You offerings in righteousness.

In Case You’re Not Perfect

09/10/2021

Is there anything about you that isn’t perfect? If you are perfect, congratulations.  I’m not. As a matter of fact, the closer I grow to Christ, the more aware I am of sin in my life. If you, like me, are mindful of your sin, here are some encouraging words. Malachi 3:3 says the Lord

will purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, so that they may present to the Lord offerings in righteousness.

What good news! As Christ’s priests (1 Peter 2:9), we have confidence in our REFINER who is extracting sin from our life and clarifying us so we can stand before Him one day, perfect; so we can present to Him offerings in righteousness.

Thank You, Lord, for being our Refiner. We look forward to heaven when we stand sinless before You and present to You offerings in righteousness.
