1 Samuel 25:1-44; Isaiah 63:15-64:12; Romans 7:7-25
Seeing you hate instruction and cast My words behind you? Psalm 50:17 NKJV
But You have lovingly delivered my soul…for You have cast all my sins behind Your back. Isaiah 38:17 NKJV
What a contrast we see in these two verses. The wicked hate instruction from God and do all they can to cast away His words. On the other hand, believers know how much God has done for them and they rejoice because their sins have been cast behind God’s back where even He cannot see them anymore. “As far as the
east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us” (Ps. 103:12 NKJV). We worship and praise the Lord Jesus Christ for our great salvation! —Annette Baal
A thousand, a thousand thanksgivings,
I bring, blessed Saviour, to Thee! —Ernst C. Homberg
