Bible Verse for Today
Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. (James 4:8)
In this verse, we need to point out that we are first asked to come to God before we are asked to sin no more.
So many people do it the other way around. They think they can never come to God, make a relationship with Him, and become Christians because there are still things left in their lives to overcome. They try to get their lives to be good enough to have a relationship with God. But that’s not right.
Jesus came because we could never be good enough without him. His death, his blood is the ultimate price of our sins – he paid for our guilt.
Devotional for every day here: Daily Devotional
If we do not come to God through Jesus, we can not be cleansed of our sins. God longs for you to go to Him today. Please do not stay away from him because you believe the lie that you first have to free yourself from your sin. Instead, come to God and be cleansed of Him by the vicarious sacrifice that Jesus brought for you.
