Oh Lord, my Father, thank You for giving up Your life by going through with Your sacrifice, You were God in the flesh, You did not have to die for me but You did and I thank You for that love, You did it because of Your unconditional love for Your Father who sent you into this sinful world to redeem us back to God, I thank You Jesus for that.

I thank You because Your sacrifice now affords me the opportunity to depend on the Grace and Mercy that You give to me freely, it is because of Your ultimate sacrifice, I am able to sacrifice my body for You to erase my sin by Your mercy.

” Thank You for Your faithfulness to me. Lord, as I meditate on the cleansing power of Your blood, it draws me nearer to You. I long to follow Your ways.

Teach me, Lord, to turn from evil and increase my faithfulness to Your promise, I this morning that all the saints will search themselves today and commit their ways back to You.

I pray for our nation and the nations of this world, we all belong to You, and Thank You God for veiling Yourself in the flesh for our redemption.

Last, thank YOU that through Your love and faithfulness, my sin is atoned for; through the fear of You, Lord, evil is avoided.

I pray You to remember me when my troubles overwhelm me in the mighty name of Jesus, the crucified Savior, Amen, Amen, and Amen.

Good Morning and Good Passover!!!

It is not possible for us to eliminate our sins by doing good work. The twin Mercy and Grace that Jesus offers are the things that can cancel out our sins.

Our works and deeds cannot eradicate our sins, only a Savior can purge our sins and make us white as snow.

I agree with the writer of these words, “And in faithfulness to His own sacrifice and His own promise, Jesus cleanses us from our sin. Our right response is reverence, as we consider the power of Jesus’ work. For it is this reverence that encourages us to turn from evil and remain faithful to God.”

If we sin openly, we must acknowledge that sin before those we harmed and God openly. The January 6, 2020 insurrection was done openly in real time, the man elected to lead the entire nation, not one group or party but those who did not vote for him as well. That alone requires an apology from our former president.

As a woman of God, a woman of the cloth, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, I speak not of myself but as a witness that God will forgive our sins if we go to Him completely broken.

As the scripture tells us,

“18 Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.”

While I am just a citizen who has no right to throw stones, I have a right to hold others in public Service accountable according to the Word of God. It matters not who is in power, Americans, we must remember that absolute power corrupts.

Be not mocked, what we sow, we will reap, Proverbs, 16:25 There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end, it leads to death.” Death is spiritual death first then natural death follows.

Leaders must be patient and wise scripture” Prvbs:16:32 Better a patient person than a warrior, one with self-control than one who takes a city.

Caveat Emptor,-Be not deceived people of God, try the spirits of these people running for office, watch their actions, not simply listen to the sweet words that tickle your ears,

Verses 27-29 state it better than me, “A scoundrel plots evil, and on their lips, it is like a scorching fire. A perverse person stirs up conflict, and gossip separates close friends.

29 A violent person entices their neighbor and leads them down a path that is not good.”

I leave you with this on this Good Friday, Trust God in all that you do, acknowledge that He is God, and allow Him to direct you and He will keep you from falling prey to Charismatic leaders who lead you out on the ledge, tell you to jump, and then you are left alone to sink or swim. Christians must be able to discern snakes, if you cannot, go back and seek God again.
