"Righteousness"
(By Faith)
22 This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. (Romans 3:22-24)
There is no difference between all of God's children. He doesn't recognize race, color, or socio-economic status. All are sinners and all have fallen short of God's Glory. And through faith all have been saved by god's grace.
There is no time to waste. All men are children of God and God wants all of his children to come home to him. We as the body of Christ must understand the seriosness of our mission and need to appoach it with a sense of urgency.
Almighty Father, we thank you for your grace and love. We thank for including all of us and covering all of us in your law. May the Holy spirit always guide me and remind me of the seriousness of our mission. To you we give all the praise. Amen.

Daily Devotions
"Be Sanctified"
(Sexual Purity)
3 It is God’s will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality; 4 that each of you should learn to control your own body[a] in a way that is holy and honorable, 5 not in passionate lust like the pagans, who do not know God; 6 and that in this matter no one should wrong or take advantage of a brother or sister.[b] The Lord will punish all those who commit such sins, as we told you and warned you before. 7 For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life. 8 Therefore, anyone who rejects this instruction does not reject a human being but God, the very God who gives you his Holy Spirit.
We must condition ouselves like an athlete conditions his body. We must condition ourselves to avoid sexual immorality. We must learn to master this part of our lives.
I will know what my weaknesses are in this area and expect that I will be tested in this area. I will be conscious of the devil and when he tries to lie to and tempt me. I shall rebuke him in the name of Jesus, and give he sin over to God. I shal bathe in the light of the spirit of God and through prayer resist the devil's temptations.
My Father please help me to address this area of my life. Help me to condition myself and help me to master my weaknesses. Amen.
