Your Sin Isn't Better - Friday Praise & Pray (for others) December 5, 2025
We live in a world where many churches teach that Christians don't experience trials and troubles. Such incomplete instruction can create the impression that bad things only happen to bad people. Or that it is only non-Christians who experience bad things. However, Jesus never taught this, and if we harbor any such thinking, it is time to let it go.
In Luke 13, Jesus discussed a tragedy that happened to a group of Galileans who died at the hands of Pilate.

ALTAR CALL
No matter how blemished we are, Jesus died on the cross to erase every sin and wash us clean over and over again.

Now is your opportunity to do just that and get baptized in the Spirit (John 3:5).
So if your heart is open, plus if, as in Psalm 42:2, your soul thirsts for God and you want to appear in His presence, why don't you say the following prayer?
Lord Jesus, I am a sinner. I confess my sins right now to you. And I believe that you are the Son of God. I believe that you came, you died, you rose again, and you paid the price for my sins. Today, I accept the new life, today, I accept the Holy Spirit. Come dwell in me, make Your home in me. I will never be the same again. In Jesus's Name, Amen.
Praise God and welcome to the household of the Lord. For you have to have Jesus in you in order to have God the Father (John 14:6).
Please let the Lord transform you. He loves you as you are and welcomes you just that way, but He will change you. I'd be doing you a disservice if I didn't let you know. My recommendation is that you let Him have His way and bow to the changes He will bring your way.
