Jesus wants us to keep the commandments!


Jesus tells us that if we know the commandments and if we keep them, we show our love for Him and that we will be loved by His Father.  Jesus tells us that He will love us when we remember the 10 commandments.

We should bear in mind that the ten commandments are not isolated and we cannot break one without breaking them all.  We do however have salvation in the Grace of God.

So today, if we know that we have broken any of the Lord's commandments, we can pray to God for forgiveness.  God reads our hearts and if we are truly repentant, we are forgiven.  Remember that we also have to forgive those who have sinned against us.  

We should love the Lord our God with all our hearts and with all our souls and with all our minds.  Then all the other commandments suddenly become a lot easier to keep.

Let us make a concerted effort today to ask God to forgive us.  Then let us let go of all hurts and wrongs we perceive have been done to us.  Let us this weekend dwell on forgiving others and then let our love for God shine through.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I pray earnestly that You forgive me for breaking any or all of Your commandments.  Forgive me Father.  I forgive all those who have sinned against me.  

Father I love You with all my heart and with all my soul and with all my mind.  

Father I thank You for the grace that give me through the life and death and resurrection of Your Son Jesus Christ.  I thank You for the chance to repent and the chance to forgive others.  

I promise today Father, to try and not break any of  Your commandments.  I pray all of this in the Holy Name of my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Have a wonderful God Blessed day!
