A Remedy

By | Eyesalve

And the LORD God of their fathers sent to them by his messengers, rising up betimes, and sending; because he had compassion on his people, and on his dwelling place: 16But they mocked the messengers of God, and despised his words, and misused his prophets, until the wrath of the LORD arose against his people, till there was no remedy.” II Chronicles 36:15-16

 

Thank the Lord He has provided a remedy for us. It is the blood of Jesus Christ. Though there is a remedy, it still has to be activated. A humble heart is what activates the remedy.

Eyesalve: We Are Dead To Sin

By | Eyesalve

God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?” Romans 6:2

 

There is a difference between falling into sin once in a while and living in sin. Just as Jesus Himself was tempted, though He never gave into it, we are tempted too. Though we choose to live a life apart from sin, we do at times sin. Thank God for the blood of Jesus which keeps us in right standing while we are working out our salvation. It is the attitude one has toward sin that exposes the real believer from the false. The real believer hates sin and wants to be free of it, while the pretender has not shook loose from the appetite for sin.
