PROMISE #220 - AUGUST 8
Promise #220:
If you walk in the light, the blood of My Son Jesus will cleanse you from all sin.
1 John 1:7 (WEB)
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light,
we have fellowship with one another,
and the blood of Jesus Christ, his Son,
cleanses us from all sin.
Jesus is called the Light of the World. In Him is no darkness, only brilliant, glorious light. The good news of the gospel is that when we receive the free gift of God, which is the life of His own Son, we are completely cleansed from all unrighteousness and forgiven of all our sins.
We have become children of the light because we are now joined completely into Jesus's holy life. Romans 8:1 says that because of this exchange, there is, therefore, now no condemnation for us.
Our adversary, the devil, is called the accuser of the brethren. He aims to continually bring accusations against us that would somehow cause us to feel ashamed and hide from God. When you hear these accusing voices, declare the finished work of the blood of Jesus over your life, for it is the cleansing power of Jesus' blood that keeps us walking in the light!
We do not need to hide in shame from God. Jesus Christ has secured our place in His Father's heart, and His blood has covered our past sins, our present sins, and our future sins. You can rest in the finished work of Jesus Christ. When He cried, it was finished on the cross, He meant it.
Does this mean that we can go on living a sinful life? God forbid! However, we can rest assured that if we walk in the light as Jesus is in the light, His blood cleanses us from ALL sin.
