Joseph Prince's "Grace Meditations" for today contains the very essence of the Covenant of Grace that we are living in!
YOU ARE PERFECT
IN GOD’S EYES
Hebrews 10:12, 14, KJV But this Man, after He had offered one
sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God... For by one
offering He hath perfected forever them that are sanctified.
God sees you with no
flaw, spot or imperfection, so honor His Word and the finished work of His Son
by saying, “Amen!” Don’t doubt your perfection in Christ. To see yourself as far
from being perfect is not modesty, but a failure to understand the perfect sacrifice
that Jesus has made for you.
The Bible tells us,
“For by one offering He hath perfected forever them that are sanctified”. Did
you get that? You have not only been sanctified, that is, made holy, but by the
same offering of His body, you have been perfected. You are both holy and
perfect in God’s eyes!
Your sins have been
purged perfectly. Today, Jesus is seated at His Father’s right hand not because
He is the Son of God (although that is true), but because His work of purging
your sins is completely finished and perfect! So instead of being
conscious of your sins, which is to have an evil conscience (Hebrews 10:22),
you can have a perfect conscience, a conscience that is free from the guilt and
condemnation of sins.
When you find yourself
conscious of your sins, just say, “Thank You, Lord Jesus, for Your wonderful
work at the cross. It is a perfect work that has removed all my sins
completely.
“Holy Spirit, thank
You for convicting me of righteousness, not my own, but God’s righteousness
given to me as a gift. Keep on convicting me in the days to come, reminding me
especially when I fail that I am still the righteousness of God in Christ.”
My friend, God sees
you perfect without any spot of sin. He sees you covered in the beautiful white
robes of His own righteousness. He treats you like a righteous man because that
is what He has made you. So expect good things to happen to you because
blessings are on the head of the righteous! (Proverbs 10:6)
AMEN! If we do not begin to see ourselves ONLY as God sees us, then we will constantly be trampled on by the enemy telling us that we are just not good enough! THEN we will be rendered useless and helpless when it comes to preaching the TRUTH of the Gospel with the Anointing and power that Holy Spirit will bring to it! Here is Hillsong with "Children of the Light", because that IS who we are! AMEN!
Shalom in Him!
