IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL
TOPIC: WE ARE ABLE TO CONQUER THE ACCUSER OF THE BRETHREN THROUGH THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST.
Because of Christ’s sacrifice and the pouring out of His blood on our behalf, we can trust in the righteousness of Christ and not our own righteousness when we are accused by our enemy. Revelation 12:11 says, “And they have conquered him [Satan] by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they loved not their lives even unto death.” As believers, we know that we cannot stand on our own merit or because of our own deeds. We know that our good deeds are as filthy rags before God (Isaiah 64:6) and that the Christ’s righteousness attributed to us is how we are able to stand up against accusations.
Charles Spurgeon spoke these comforting words:
I know what the devil will say to you. He will say to you, ‘You are a sinner!’ Tell him you know you are, but that for all that you are justified. He will tell you of the greatness of your sin. Tell him of the greatness of Christ’s righteousness. He will tell you of all your mishaps and your backslidings, of your offences and your wanderings. Tell him, and tell your own conscience, that you know all that, but that Jesus Christ came to save sinners, and that, although your sin be great, Christ is quite able to put it all away.
LET US PRAY
FATHER IN JESUS NAME, SILENT EVERY ACCUSER FROM THE DEVIL THAT IS WAR AGAINST US IN JESUS NAME. AMEN.
