He will have compassion upon us
He will have compassion upon us
"He will have compassion upon us— He will subdue our iniquities! " Micah 7:19
He who pitied us when we were dead in trespasses and sins, and died on the cross to atone for our guilt—now lives to save us from the power of our corruptions! As He sees us struggling with our inbred foes, "He will have compassion upon us." He will come to our help, and place His feet upon the neck of our enemies, "He will subdue our iniquities!"
Christ is made unto us "sanctification" as well as "wisdom and righteousness"—and eventually He will be our complete "redemption." He will deliver our bodies from the power of the grave—and present us "faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy."
Help me, O Lord, to live by faith on You for dominion over all sin; fill me with the spirit of truth, of purity, and love. Knowing that the old man is crucified with Christ, that the body of sin might be destroyed, and that I am risen with Christ—help me to reckon myself to be dead indeed unto sin, and alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord, and to mortify the flesh with its affections and lusts. May I live in the Spirit, have my fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life!
Back to Every Day!
