Mankind's fallen nature inherited from Adam’s sin
made us enemies of God, but the redemptive work of our Savior opened the
way for us to become His children. This great salvation proclaims the
truth, the LORD is on our side. I would have remained in darkness and utterly
lost forever had not the LORD been on my side. My attempts to follow His will
or pursue His call would be entirely impossible and my hopes would have been
vanquished forever had not the LORD been on my side. While at times I struggle
to muster the strength and valor to fight this earthly battle, I know I will
finish strong for the LORD is on my side. Glorious Adonai, Captain of Our
Salvation, Eternal Father, all glory to You now and forever! I march ahead in
victory and abiding peace along with all who are Yours, for You O LORD are on
my side.
A serious pursuit of godliness requires an equally serious renunciation of worldliness. Too often, we measure spirituality with false scales. While being wisely selective with our public vices we are less so with our private attitudes and perspectives. In reality, it is the thoughts and intents of the heart where the greatest battles must be waged; our actions will ultimately align with the condition of our hearts. Lord God, You know me inside out, You are not fooled by human facades. Plow my heart with Your Word and Spirit and leave nothing unturned. Refresh my inward man that I may outwardly glorify You in all places at all times.
