I have discovered that the more I learn of God, the more I sit with Him, the more I choose to grow and be changed…I am made whiter still.
What is righteousness that I could achieve it on my own?
I could never.
Righteousness is found in Christ alone.
If I am to live a righteous life, then every moment I must be found in Him. Trading my sin and shame for His mercy and grace.
The mercy seat.
Our King of kings.
Emmanuel.
Oh, how His glory shines throughout the earth. He is Wonderful. Counselor. Almighty God.
When we step more intentionally into His presence, we become whiter still…
Shades of white.
We are washed clean when we receive Jesus as our Lord and Savior…I’ve noticed that we become whiter still as we walk out sanctification. Becoming transformed into His likeness, more and more.
I challenge you today to lean into God and ask to be made whiter still. Confess any sins and ask Him to cover you, again, in His blood. We bring every part of our lives under the blood of Jesus, to be made whiter…whiter than snow…whiter still…
We proclaim to you the One Who existed from the beginning, Whom we have heard and seen. We saw Him with our own eyes and touched Him with our own hands. He is the Word of life. This One Who is life itself was revealed to us, and we have seen Him. And now we testify and proclaim to you that He is the One Who is eternal life. He was with the Father, and then He was revealed to us. We proclaim to you what we ourselves have actually seen and heard so that you may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son, Jesus Christ. We are writing these things so that you may fully share our joy. This is the message we heard from Jesus and now declare to you. God is light, and there is no darkness in Him at all. So, we are lying if we say we have fellowship with God but go on living in spiritual darkness, we are not practicing the truth. But if we are living in the light, as God is in the light, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, cleanses us from all sin. If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and not living in the truth. But if we confess our sins to Him, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness. If we claim we have not sinned, we are calling God a liar and showing that His word has no place in our hearts. 1 John 1:1-10
