Sins Removed | Nov. 7th

"When iniquities prevail against me, you atone for our transgressions."

Psalm 65:3

Various things in life can plague and overwhelm us. However, with time, medicine, and a plan, we can recover from many of these things. Our iniquities have slayed us, and we stand condemned before God.

No amount of time, planning, or medicine would ever enable us to be free from the penalty of our iniquity. The plea of the Psalmist is ours today. God alone has made atonement for our sins. Christ took upon Himself our iniquities. Jesus the Redeemer is our hope, joy, and peace.

He has taken our sins from us as far as the east is from the west; so far have they been removed. Come before the throne of grace today and find your forgiveness and peace in God.

In Christ Alone,

Salvation Belong to God | Nov. 6th

"Show us your steadfast love, O Lord, and grant us your salvation."

Psalm 85:7

Regardless of your political view, this should be the prayer of God's people for the nation. For the kingdoms of this world do not stand or fall by the powers of man but through the providence of God.

God Almighty reigns over heaven and earth. We are called to humble ourselves beneath God's mighty hand and pray for His mercy. We exist because of God's steadfast love and are dependent upon His faithfulness.

As the people of God, let us ask for His salvation. We would see a revival and a reformation within the church that would touch the world around us for His glory. Pray for the steadfast love of God to be seen in your life, in your family, in your church, and the world. May God grant us His salvation.

In Christ Alone,

Pastor Wight

A Pure Heart | Nov. 5th

"Now may the God of peace.... working in us that which is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ,..."

Hebrews 13:20,21

Every true believer desires to please God. We earnestly hope to become more Christ-like in all that we say and do. The longer we endeavor to accomplish this, the more daunting the task becomes if we rely on ourselves.

We soon realize in our fatigue and failures that we need to depend upon the Lord to work in us that which pleases Him. We certainly have a responsibility to seek the Lord and follow Him in faithful obedience.

We must look to the Lord to help us. It is the Holy Spirit who transforms us and works in us the grace of God. The Spirit of the Lord gives us the power to walk uprightly before God and create within us a heart that is pleasing to Him.

This is your hope today, beloved. Ask the Lord to renew a right spirit within you and to keep your heart pure.

In Christ Alone,

Pastor Wight
