Nothing Can Separate Us
Good morning
Scripture reading: Isaiah 59:1-8
Worship song: Nothing Can Separate
Meditation:
The love of Christ is limitless; it does not come with any condition; therefore, it does not depend on our actions or character. There is nothing we can do to diminish or destroy his love for us, and nothing can separate us from his love. Apostle Paul in Romans 8 proclaims that no one can separate us from the love of Christ, not even tribulation, persecution, famine, death, or angels. Though it is not possible to change how much God loves us, we can cause God to turn his face away from us. God turned his face away, not because he no longer loves us, but because our hearts are corrupt and filled with evil deeds.
Our sins and iniquities separate us from the Holy God because
he does not tolerate sin. We become separated from God when our hands are
defiled with the blood of the innocent, when our lips speak lies, when we
meddle in mischief, when our feet run to evil, and when we pursue vanities.
Another factor that separates us from God is the deceptive and destructive
nature that causes us to stray from God's will, doing what pleases us. By
practicing and indulging in evil and iniquities, we have separated ourselves
from God.
Let us pray:
Sovereign God, I am grateful that there is nothing or anyone
that can separate us from your love; neither is there anything that we can do
to cause you to love us less. Thank you, Heavenly Father, for your
unconditional love, grace, and mercy that are measureless. Almighty God, I
acknowledge that our iniquities, our evil deeds, and our wantonness can cause a
separation, and so, Father, we ask you to bind our hearts to you. Cleanse and
purify our hearts, O God, of immoralities and carnal weakness. Forgive us,
Father, for trespassing against you. Lord God, do not withhold Your tender
mercies from us and let Your lovingkindness and Your truth continually preserve
us through Jesus Christ. Amen. (Child of the King).
Wishing you a fantastic day. 💕🙏
