It All Points to Jesus

Day 41 · February 10

A devotional for today

Today’s readings

Discover

Exodus shows how carefully people had to prepare to approach God's presence. Psalm 32 celebrates the blessing of having sin forgiven. Then Matthew shows us how that forgiveness would ultimately become possible. Jesus - the innocent One - is betrayed, accused, struck, and condemned. He willingly moves toward the cross to carry the sin of the guilty. We hide our sin. Jesus came to take it away. Because of Him, forgiveness is not merely something we hope for. It is a gift God offers through Christ. It ALL Points to Jesus.

Reflect

1. Am I hiding anything from God instead of confessing it? 2. What ability has God given me that I can use for His glory? 3. What does Jesus' willingness to endure betrayal teach me about His love?

Fellowship

Share with someone: How has knowing you are forgiven changed - or how could it change - the way you live? Encourage one another to bring everything honestly before Jesus.

Prayer

Father, thank You for the freedom of forgiveness. Jesus, thank You for willingly suffering to save us. Holy Spirit, help us walk honestly and faithfully with You today. Amen.

Live

Stop hiding. Bring one struggle honestly before God today.

Receive His forgiveness, then walk forward with Jesus in freedom.
