Jeremiah tells us that the heart is deceitful above all else and is desperately sick.  We cannot fool the LORD. He sees right to our core and tests us according to absolute truth and fact.  

What hope is there then if we are desperately sick at the heart of our being? Our hope lies in the great physician; the one who handcrafted every cell in our body; the only one who has the power to restore to perfection through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  

Without Him we would have been left in a helpless state.  Instead God’s desire for us to be with Him has trumped our inability to do what is right.  He has rescued us with the blood of Christ and we are now righteous in His eyes. 

Personal Reflection

What sin are you hiding from others?  Know that it is not hidden from God.  Confess it and walk in the light as he is in the light and experience true freedom today. Let Him cleanse and purify your heart. 

Prayer Focus

Father God, we confess that we have harbored sin against you and you alone.  We have been deceived and thought we needed something more than your provision.  Please forgive us and lead us into the light of your love and righteousness.  Thank you for your son Jesus and His powerful victory at the cross.  In His name we pray, Amen.
