How,
Lord, are we to receive Your blessing? Are we to “do some great thing”?
Are we to prove ourselves worthy of Your blessing? No! Your Word says
this: “Wash and be clean” (2 Kings 5:130. Our salvation isn’t something
that we’ve paid for. It isn’t something that we’ve earned. We don’t come
to You, saying, “Look at me. Look at my religion. Look at my morality.”
We look away from ourselves to Jesus – and we hear Your Word of
salvation: “The blood of Jesus Christ, God’s Son, cleanses us from all
sin” (1 John 1:7).
Often, Lord, we feel like David - facing Goliath (1 Samuel 17). Everything seems too much for us. Was Goliath too much for David? He wasn't too much for You - and You were on David's side. We're not alone. Help us to remember this. When we feel weak, help us to remember that You are strong - and Your strength has been given to us. Thank You, Lord.
