Today’s Scripture
Seventy years are given to us! Some even live to eighty. But even the best years are filled with pain and trouble; soon they disappear, and we fly away.
Psalm 90:10, NLT

Don’t Waste Another Day
When we come to the end of our days, God is going to ask us, “What did you do with the time I gave you? Did you develop your gifts and talents? Did you accomplish your assignment? How did you spend your life?” It’s not going to work to make excuses for why we did not redeem the time. “God, my friend got me off course.” “God, I lived bitter because somebody did me wrong.” “God, I was negative because my company let me go.”

You have a responsibility to live your life well. Make the decision that you’re going to be an on-purpose person. Set your goals and be disciplined to stick with it. Prune off the relationships that are not adding to your life. And don’t go to bed with any kind of defeat, bitterness, or negativity still in your mind. Every day is a gift. Make sure you’re investing your time and not wasting it. If you do this, the seeds of greatness inside you are going to take root and flourish. You’re going to see God’s abundant favor.

A Prayer for Today
“Father, thank You for giving me the gift of this day to live to the full. Thank You that You are calling me to invest my life in what’s best for me, to redeem the time, and to run my life with purpose. Help me to make the most of every opportunity. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

SECTION TWO

She never expected to be caught in the act of adultery, much less be dragged to the Teacher and flung at His feet. Those who did it smugly expected Jesus to condemn her.

None of them were prepared to hear Him say, “Let those who have never sinned throw the first stones!” Their consciences pricked, they left, one by one.

Alone with Jesus, she heard Him say to her, “Where are your accusers? Has no one condemned you?”

Jesus knew how important it was for this woman to realize and say, “No one condemns me, Lord.” The only one who could condemn her, did not, because He was going to the cross to be punished and condemned in her place.

Something happens when you know that God does not condemn you today because of the cross. The woman received the power to “go and sin (which was her problem) no more.” Likewise you will receive the power to overcome sin and even rise from your bed of sickness and be sick no more!.
