Deaf Devo in Council Bluffs, Iowa, United States "List of Sins" for Saturday, 18 June 2016
"List of Sins"
Bible Reading: 1 John 1:5-101 John 1:5 And this is the message which we have heard from him and proclaim to you: God is light, and there is no darkness in him — none!

6 If we claim to have fellowship with him while we are walking in the darkness, we are lying and not living out the truth. 7 But if we are walking in the light, as he is in the light, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of his Son Yeshua purifies us from all sin.

8 If we claim not to have sin, we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we acknowledge our sins, then, since he is trustworthy and just, he will forgive them and purify us from all wrongdoing.

10 If we claim we have not been sinning, we are making him out to be a liar, and his Word is not in us.

When I was in school, I played in the band. Our band teacher had many rules for us to obey. We were not to miss a band practice or come late to a practice. And we could not forget to bring our musical instrument to school.
The band teacher had a chart on the wall. If we broke any of his rules, he would make a mark on the chart. Each time we received a mark by our name, he punished us. If we received too many marks, he would send home a letter to our parents. We did not want that to happen, so we tried to obey his rules.
I am so glad that God is not like that band teacher. God does not keep a list of our sins. Verse 9 of our Bible Reading says, "But if we confess our sins, God will forgive us. We can trust God to do this...He will make us clean from all the wrong things we have done."
I am so thankful that God will forgive me. Praise God for His love and forgiveness today![CW*]
"Lord, if you punished people for
all their sins, no one would be
left alive. But you forgive people,
so they fear and respect you." [Psalm 130:3-4]
PRAYER: Thank You, Father, for Your love and forgiveness. In Jesus' name. Amen.
