Moses said to Aaron, “This is what God meant when he said,
To the one who comes near me,
I will show myself holy;
Before all the people,
I will show my glory.”
ROMANS 5:1 (CEB)
Therefore, since we have been made righteous through his faithfulness, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
SUMMARY
Jesus makes the way for us to be with God in peace.
DAILY FODDER
Why do we need someone to make peace with God for us? Why can't we each make our own peace with God?
PRAYER
Holy God, what a privelege it is to be ushered into your presence by your faithful Son, Jesus the Christ. There is nothing about me that warrants such an honor. Forgive me for my casual state. But you know what I'm like and you do it anyway. You never cease to amaze me. I want to help others discover your peace. Amen.
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you will protect us from all forms of evil. Amen.
