1 John Chapter 3 vv. 2, 9.
If you can search these verses up, do so because I believe these verses have so much meaning in them.
Many of us have trouble finding out what to do with our lives and wonder what the future holds for us. Verse 2 shows us that we do not have to worry about our own futures. Many of us are waiting for an answer and longing for direction in our lives and this verse ensures us that God will reveal the future to us. We also wonder about our decisions in life and wonder if it is God's decision for us. This verse also tells us that if God is revealed to us, then we will be like Him! We have to realize that if we accept Christ as our Lord and Savior, our decisions in life will be according to His will because we are like Him! We have nothing to worry about if our lives are lead by Christ.
Verse 9 gives us comfort. It says, since we are of God we do not sin! There is no way for us to sin and why? Because of the great price Jesus Christ has paid on the Cross for us. Although we were sinners, Christ died for us and resurrected on the third day! He gave us salvation! Unlike the world, we have the ability of not sinning through the power of the Holy Spirit. We have true freedom! On our day of judgement, God will judge the sin of all but since we accepted Jesus Christ, God will see past our sin and see the blood of Christ!
How blessed are we?
Question: Do you have any praise reports or prayer requests?

Let me ask you a question...do you think Christians really believe and utilize the power of the Holy Spirit not to sin?
