YOUR HOUSE WILL BE TIDY
When we entertain special guests at our house, we make sure that our housekeeping is on point and everything is tidy. Do you know, as a born-again believer, you are God's house? Look at this scripture:
Hebrews 3:6 But Christ, as the Son, is in charge of God’s entire house. And we are God’s house if we keep our courage and remain confident in our hope in Christ. (NLT)
To be God’s house requires full surrender to the provision of God for our righteousness through Jesus Christ. The only way to keep your house clean is to confidently hold fast to the grace and love of God found in the good news of Jesus.

This takes all the pressure off of you! Hallelujah! Relying upon our ability to be right with God brings a curse upon our life.
Gal 3:10-13 For all who rely on the works of the law are under a curse, as it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.” Clearly, no one who relies on the law is justified before God, because “the righteous will live by faith.” The law is not based on faith; on the contrary, it says, “The person who does these things will live by them.” Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a pole.”
Jesus took our punishment so we could have his blessing! God gave everything for you. May you boldly receive his precious gift! May today be your day to hold confidently to the truth of God and his love through Jesus Christ! May your house be kept tidy as you trust God completely! Don’t ever forget the fact that your body houses the Spirit of the living God. You are his house! Get focused on what’s most important! Fully believe and receive God’s precious gift and…
