Meditate On
let us go right
into the presence of God with sincere hearts fully trusting him. For our guilty
consciences have been sprinkled with Christ’s blood to make us clean…
Hebrews 10:22,
NLT
Get Rid Of The Pebble In Your Shoe
Have you ever
walked around with a pebble in your shoe? Even though it’s just a tiny little
stone, it affects your ability to keep walking, doesn’t it? Just imagine
shopping or sightseeing with a pebble in your shoe. You’re not going to have
much fun!
Having sin on
your conscience is like having a pebble in your shoe. You can’t really go far
in your walk with God. Like the pebble in your shoe, it’ll cause you to stumble
and slow you down. Sin constantly pricking your conscience is like the sound of
dripping water in the still of the night—it prevents you from getting any rest!
My friend, the
only way to find rest for your conscience is to point it to the cross of Jesus.
There, every sin that you have and will ever commit was punished in the body of
your substitute, Jesus. Because of His sacrifice, all your sins have been
forgiven and washed away by His cleansing blood.
Today, you can
approach God with boldness and faith because your conscience has been cleansed
by Jesus’ blood. The more you believe this truth, the more you’ll walk with a
conscience free of the pebbles of sin, and the further you’ll go in your walk
with God!
BLESSING
