Hallelujah, praise the living God for another day to pray for you all and be used by Him. Today I offer this line from Warren Wiersbe.

“The man who is really forgiven, is anxious not to offend again; the possession of justification leads to an anxious desire for sanctification.”

Philippians 2:12
New American Standard Bible 1995

¹² So then, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your salvation with fear and trembling;

Heavenly Father, in the name of our Lord Jesus, Your servant praises and worships You. 

Bless You, for providing us the Bible that allows us to know You better each time we study it. Forgiveness is an amazing gift to both give and receive which reveals Your steadfast love for us. Help me forgive when I struggle to let things go. Remind me of how much I have been forgiven in those moments. Let the glory of Your love and forgiveness towards me compel me to do likewise as I work out the gift of salvation with a healthy fear of Your holiness. May I be anxious for nothing but You as I purpose to follow Your will.

Father, we thank You that You have heard us. Amen in Jesus’ name and by the power of the Holy Spirit.
