Blessed Is He Whose Sin Is Forgiven
By: Robert A. Searles
Oh! How blessed is the one whose sin is forgiven, whose iniquities are
remembered no more! How it blesses my heart and soul to know that
there is forgiveness with God! If God should hold grudges, as it were,
and mark our iniquities, who should stand?
“There is none
righteous, no, not one.” Romans 3: 10. All have sinned and come short of
the glory of God with the exception of one, and that one person, our
blessed Lord and Savior was perfect in all his ways and he who was
sinless himself , bore all our sin and shame on the cross when he died
for us; but praise God! He rose again the third day, proving that he is
God and that God the Father had accepted his sacrifice of himself as the
propitiation for all our sins, for as many as will receive it by faith,
there is forgiveness with God for all our foolishness when we bow
before him, acknowledging our folly and ask for his mercy to be bestowed
upon us.
Weary sinner, come to the foot of the cross and see
Jesus dying in your place. Let the drops of his blood fall upon you by
faith, and realize that divine blood was shed for you, and that because
of the price that was paid, you are valuable to God. Then by faith
visit the empty tomb and see that it is indeed empty: that he is not
here but was raised for our justification, and because he lives, be sure
that all of us who have put our trust in him shall live also.
Wandering prodigal, far from home, far from the Father's fellowship
which you once knew, come home. There is forgiveness with God. Come
back to the fold, come apart from the world. Our father is ready to
kill the fatted calf and put a ring on your finger and clothe you with
his righteousness. Oh yes! Thank God, there is forgiveness with God.
“If thou Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? But
there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared. I wait
for the Lord, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.” Psalm 130:
3-5.
