The Bible says that our Lord was acquainted with grief. This is because He realized something that we do not see. He understands that sins effect on God's good life is to kill and destroy it.
Sin has no life of it's own. It can only live off the life God has given. This is the very reason Jesus
suffered on the cross, died, and rose again so that sin can itself be put to death, not only by Him, but every believer in Jesus Christ. So the mission then, for every believer, is to by the power of the Holy Spirit within them, die to sin and live to God.
Daily Prayer: Father, all Christians who confess the victory at the Cross agree with You concerning the plight of sin in the lives of people. I thank You for sending the Son and the Holy Spirit to rescue us. Let us not fail to relive the Cross daily and let us not grieve the Holy Spirit.
Instead, let us trust in Jesus and depend on the Holy Spirit, so that we can live the live you gave us. In Jesus name I pray Amen.
