Genesis - Creator King, Image, Rest
Genesis - Creator King, Image, Rest
Friday, May 29th
The other reality that we need to rest in is in the power of the cross and what Christ did on that cross. I wonder, how much of your restlessness is about the “sin that so easily
entangles us.” That we feel beaten down, we feel we are our sin, versus sinners saved by grace.
Notice Colossians 2:13-15- 13 When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, 14 having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness, which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross. 15 And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.
What do you have to do to take care of your sin? We can rest in the work of Christ and the cross. Today, rest in the cross, confessing your sin and nailing it to the cross. That’s what confession is, admitting that your sin is what would separate you, but because of what Christ did at the cross, you can rest in his forgiveness and his grace for you.
Maybe it is confessing your own sin? Maybe it is forgiving the sin done to you? Either way, confession and forgiveness is resting in the power of the cross.
Take time with either or both of these songs: How He Loves Us & East to West
