Devotion for the day...
Psalms 103:10-12 (NIV)
10
he does not treat
us as our sins deserve or repay us according
to our iniquities....
11
For as high as the
heavens are above the earth, so great is his
love for those who fear him;
12
as far as the
east is from the west, so far has he removed
our transgressions from us.

our transgressions from us.
These songs of praise are rich with teaching.
In this psalm, the writer tells us a fact we
need to remember. We never get what we
deserve. Never ask for justice, or you may get
it. We always forget our sins and remember
our good deeds with a little embellishment. If
we got what we deserve, we would all be cast
into the Lake of Fire. We are by nature rebels
against the loving goodness of our Creator.
Instead of giving us what we deserve, God
lavished His love upon us by sending His one
and only Son to take what we deserved. Only
Jesus could bear it.
How did we ever learn to fear Him, that is, to
reverence His just nature that will not let sin
go unpunished? It is only an undeserved gift
of grace! It is an expression of His great love.
That love is much greater than you or I could
ever muster. What is your attitude toward
those who have betrayed your love for them?
God just continues to love us to the fullest
extent of His love.
Satan would try to get us to dwell on all our
failures and past mistakes. God doesn't, so
why should we? Satan's accusations are
true, but so is the fact that those sins are
covered by the sacrifice of Jesus. They are
removed from us as far as east is from west.
That is a long ways! Next time the enemy
tries to get you down about a past sin,
remind him of this verse. The future is as
bright as the promises of God. You are a
work in transition, but the scrap that has
been chiseled away is already cleaned up
and hauled off.
Remember: Look forward, not back, and
praise God for loving you so! Praise Him for
sending Jesus to get what you deserved.
