TOPIC: GO AND SIN NO MORE November Saturday 28th
Text: John 8:1-11
Key verse: John 8:11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
In today’s devotional text, Jesus told that woman caught in adultery, “Go and sin no more.” That pronouncement is a power just as He pronounced on Peter. Peter said, “If you are the One bid me come on the water.” He said, “Come!” That word went with power that made Peter walk on top of the water. When the Lord says “Go and sin no more,” power follows that statement. Jesus has the power to sustain you and give you victory over sin. If any man is in Christ, he is a new creature. His evil lifestyle is gone; old things are passed away; all things become new.
People that are still committing immorality and drinking alcohol are not yet born again. It does not matter whether you sing in the choir or you are made a leader. As long as you are still going to harlots, or are still in witchcraft; you are not born again. You must make up your mind to stop those things. You must go to God to forgive the past and ask Jesus for power to live the present and future life in righteousness.
You need Jesus to give you power for the future because you still have to contend against sin and Satan. Temptations and fleshly lusts will continue to wage war against the believer in Christ to lure you back into sin as a dog goes back to its own vomit. But for you to overcome, you need Jesus to put His power in you so that you will not sin again. If somebody says he is born again, it means he is not committing sin and past sin is gone. He is forgiven by God and presently, he has the power not to sin again.
So if you are putting this word into practice the Bibles says, the rain will descend, the wind will blow and the flood will come against you but you will stand. You are going to stand because you have the strength of God in your heart and in your life. That spiritual commitment puts into you an undefeatable energy and makes you an overcomer in life. Whatever may be the forces of decay, the forces of destruction, the forces that pull down, they will never be able to work in your life because you have built your life upon the rock and the rock is the totality of God’s word.
Thought for the day: Jesus has the power to sustain you and give you victory over sin.
Song for the day: Only Jesus can save, only Jesus can save, Alleluia!
