The Cleansing Power of Christ’s Blood

"We give praise, glory, and honor to whom glory and honor are due, for all good and perfect gifts that come from above, from the Father of heavenly light in whom there is no shadow of turning (James 1:17).

In all our weaknesses, God's grace is always sufficient for us, and in our greatest weaknesses, God's power is revealed most powerfully in us, His dearly loved children who have put their faith only in His only begotten Son, whom He sent as an atoning sacrifice for the sins of mankind. 

As Paul wrote, when he prayed three times for his thorn in the flesh to be removed, the Lord replied that His grace is sufficient for him at all times, and His power is made more manifest in all his weaknesses (2 Corinthians 12:9).

As it is written, 'Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths' (Proverbs 3:5-6). How can a man know his own way when it is the Lord who directs him? (Proverbs 20:24).

Let us put on the garment of humility and clothe ourselves with the holiness and righteousness of our Lord Jesus Christ, walking in obedience and bringing honor, glory, and praise to Him to whom glory, honor, and praise are due and belong."
