The Wednesday Word

  The Forgetfulness of Grace: Part 2 by D.G. Miles McKee There are some religious people who say we cannot know whether we are saved or not.  They say we cannot be sure whether we are going to heaven.  However, this kind of belief is not the case with the gospel believer.  Gospel believers know that their sins are forgiven. Why? Because in  Hebrews 1:3  it says that our sins are purged. Because in  Isaiah 43:25  it says that our sins are blotted out. Because in  Psalm 103:12  it says that our sins are removed. Because in  In Isaiah 38:17  it says they are behind God’s back. Because  In Micah 7:19,  they are cast into the depth of the sea. In Christ, the believer’s sins are gone.

We Need Christ Every Moment

"Praise waiteth for Thee, O God, in Zion." -Psalm 65:1  [KJV] Is this the language of my heart? Am I indeed waiting until that Jesus be ready to receive my poor praise? Hath God the Holy Ghost prepared my heart? Oh then, hasten to Him, my soul, with thy morning offerings, poor as they are; for sure I am, Jesus is waiting to be gracious. God will accept both thee and thy offering in Him the Beloved. Go forth to meet Him as early and as often as thine heart can wish: depend upon it, thy Redeemer will be beforehand with thee, and is waiting thy coming. Neither thy praise nor thy prayer can outrun His love; for both are the blessed effects of His grace, and of His own quickenings. Precious Jesus, grant me to come as often as I need Thee. And, Lord, if Thou wilt grant me this blessing, I shall never be from Thee, for I need Thee every moment.   -preacher Robert Hawker (1753-1827 A.D.) December 1st, THE POOR MAN'S MORNING PORTION
