Wow, speaking of “pits”!
When disappointment, distraction or discouragement makes you feel like you are in the pits, it is God our Father who assures us that He has the answers and solution to any situation that we find ourselves in. If God is willing to make us righteous by what He allowed to happen on the cross to His Only Son, surely, He will see us through all struggles or challenges that we find ourselves in. He is always there to pull us up out of the pit. He wants to pull us out. Human effort or self-effort does not offer sure results, but God promises a solution always for those who believe.
Matthew 12:11 “Then He said to them, ‘What man is there among you who has one sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will not lay hold of it and lift it out? Of how much more value is a man than a sheep?’”
Even when temptation strikes, which could lead to self-condemnation, God provides a way out.
Corinthians 10:13 “No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape that you may be able to bear it.”
Men, let’s live a condemnation free life because God has said that “there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.”
Romans 8:1-2 “There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Jesus Christ has made me free from the law of sin and death.”
“WE’RE FREE!”
