Never Down

Ezekiel 18:21-28

Julianne Benson

What an encouragement we have in Ezekiel 18. God tells us that if we turn away from our sins and become obedient to God's perfect plan for healthy living, as told in the Bible, not only can we live, but we can THRIVE! God says He will remember our sins no more. How awesome is that?

But... God also gives us a WARNING. He tells us NOT to start sinning like the wicked or He will remember our righteousness no more. Surely we don't want that!

The moral of this scripture is: do the right things by following God's will as laid out in His Word, and God will be pleased with us and all will be well with our soul. Be encouraged today ~ I know I am!

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, How merciful you are. Thank you for helping us to strive to be the people you made us to be and want us to be. Thank you for your promise of remembering our sins no more as long as we walk in your ways. You give us grace which we don't deserve but are grateful for. Help us also to extend that grace to others in your name. Amen.
