The Lamb of God

The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, "Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!" John 1:19

Father God, today as we behold Jesus, may we look and see Him as the One who took and takes away all of our sin. Every single one of them - those that we are so aware of and those we don't even recognize as sin.

Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the sinful nature, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful man to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in sinful man, in order that the righteous requirements of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the sinful nature but according to the Spirit. Romans 8:1-4

Father, may this truth permeate our hearts and minds and be our shield from the lies of the enemy that speak a different message. There is no condemnation. The required righteousness is fully met in us through Jesus Christ! Thank you Father that it really isn't about us, but about You and what You HAVE DONE.

You are our precious Saviour! We love you and thank You for your great love. Keep us walking in Your righteousness.
