Thank You, LORD, for helping us through another week. Good Friday morning, my brother!Read 1 John 3:18 – 4:6
The apostle John’s scriptural writings are filled with reminders of the commandment given to us by our Lord Jesus to love one another. Today’s passage is reflective of that theme – that we should love one another; and that commanded love should be both actionable and evident through Kingdom changes in our lives. Those important Kingdom changes include Spirit-breathed discernment and a desire to do things that are pleasing in the sight of our Father.
And as you read this portion of John’s letter, please take note of this significant point:
Our hearts can actually bring condemnation into our lives. But God, our Good God, is greater than our heart, and He desires that we overcome any condemnation so that we can walk in confidence before Him.
Friend, if your heart has been causing you to suffer from any condemnation, lay claim to the promise of this passage. You can “assure your heart before Him” and know that GOD IS GREATER than any condemnation your heart may bring. Be free from condemnation today, and always! Amen!
