DEAD TO SIN

And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; — Colossians 2:13 (KJV).

In the dispensation of the grace of Jesus Christ, everyone that comes to God through Christ is accepted and sanctified. To be dead to sin means to be separated from it and the lusts thereof. Christ has delivered us from entanglement with the flesh. If you are purged from your mess, don't go back.

This is the good news, that the vilest sinners are made completely new and acceptable before God through Christ. You don't need to pay for your sins anymore, Jesus paid in full, Hallelujah. He has brought us from the miry clay, dusted us from our background, severed us from our mess, delivered us from bondage and gave us a fresh start. In the midst of condemnation from friends and colleagues, Jesus saw the good in us. Above all, He has made us alive with Him. Thus, our lives is not in what the world offer, but the fullness of the presence of God as packaged in Christ Jesus. Are you circumcised to Him? Are you separated unto Him? Hope you don't mix up your relationship with Christ by bringing in your job, marriage,carrier, ministry or relationship . Since you got favored, is Christ still the center of your life? If you are lifted up today, will Jesus still be your topmost priority? Think about it.

Jesus is the greatest forgiver. He forgives all trespasses, irrespective of the enormity of the offense. Come to Christ anytime and He'll clean you up. Stay separated to Him and if you are not, your time start now. Run to Jesus without delay.
Let's pray. Everlasting Father, thank you for setting us apart for your glory. Please help us to keep you first in our lives no matter the storms of life. Grant us peace, in Jesus's name. Amen. Cheers!
