MONDAY, MARCH 21, 2022 Scripture
Reading: Romans 2:1–11
Additional Scriptures: Psalm 39;
Jeremiah 11:1–17
No man can escape his own sin. Every sin you commit
will hunt you down and find you out and make you pay. There is no escape. There
has never been one sin committed on earth that the man who committed it did not
suffer for it. There has never been one sin
committed that paid. You may escape the law of man but you cannot escape the law
of God. So what do we do? We plead guilt of all sin and then turn to the merits
and mercies of Christ our Savior. The severity of the Law only leads to the purity
of the Gospel. “God was reconciling the
world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to
us the message of reconciliation.” -2 Corinthians 5:19
Look to Christ for salvation
and life. Count yourself dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Look upon the heart-felt
desires of Your humble servants, Almighty God, and stretch forth the right hand
of Your majesty to be our defense against all our enemies; through Jesus Christ
our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever
and ever. Amen [2]
