Call UsAutomatic Cleansing – Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Devotional January 19th
(God’s Word Purifies You Constantly)
TO THE BIBLE: 1 JOHN 1:7
“…if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.”
LET’S TALK
Last Sunday, Pastor Charles preached a powerful message about “The Wages of Sin and the Gift of God” and when he made the altar call, Jake promptly stood up to pray the Prayer of Salvation.
But this was exactly what happened two Sundays ago, and the Sunday before that! Jake was always giving his heart to Christ.
There are young Christians like Jake who are always getting born again or re-dedicating their lives to Christ? Well, that’s because they’re sin-conscious.
Think about what we just read in our opening scripture; it says to walk in the light as He—our Lord Jesus—is in the light, and as you do, His blood cleanses you from all sin.
Notice it doesn’t say you should pray for the blood of Jesus Christ to cleanse you from sin. No; the cleansing is automatic! It happens without you asking!
Remember, the Lord Jesus said, “Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you” (John 15:3).
Why is this important? It’s because there’s so much decay in the world around us, and just by being in contact with it, we’re sometimes smeared by that mess.
However, by walking in the light, all your errors, mistakes, and missteps that you didn’t even know about are cleansed. So be sure that you’re walking in His light, and His light is His Word.
See yourself under God’s light. If you’ve been born again and you still find yourself praying the prayer of salvation every week, that’s because you’re looking at yourself under a different light that’s showing you something is wrong.
But God’s light shows that you’re the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. See yourself thus and walk accordingly. Glory to God!

Pray:
Dear Father, I thank you for your grace and the power of your righteousness at work in me. As I walk in your light, I’m automatically cleansed and purified by the blood of Jesus. I’m justified by the grace of Jesus Christ, and I walk in His righteousness, free from the accusation of the evil one. Your righteousness is expressed in my thoughts, words and actions, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
