“Greater Than My Iniquities”
Wednesday, July 17, 2024Key Verse
“But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities:” Isaiah 53:5a
Text — Isaiah 53:3-10
Message
Iniquity represents sin and anything that brings barrier between God and man. The greatest of all problems in the life of man is iniquity because it will make it impossible to see God hereafter (Revelation 21:27). To overcome this barrier, God made a way for us through His beloved Son, Jesus Christ. He is the One Who has power to take all our iniquities away. The blood of animals cannot take away the stain of sin and its guilt, only the blood of Jesus can do it. Bring your load of iniquity to Jesus today for a total cleansing.
First, acknowledge your sins and repent. Ask God to forgive and wash your heart clean with the blood of Jesus. Forsake all sinful acts. Ask Jesus to come into your heart to be your personal Saviour and Lord. Remember that Jesus was wounded and bruised because of your sins. As you take the step of faith, He will accept you, cleanse you and make you His friend.
