John 8:4-5,7 – Do the guilty get stoned?

Here is the revelation that is shaping my life today – what do we do with the guilty, stone or restore? Is punishment restorative? What is God like with the guilty?

John 8:4-5,7 TPT
[4] Then they said to Jesus, “Teacher, we caught this woman in the very act of adultery. [5] Doesn’t Moses’ law command us to stone to death a woman like this? Tell us, what do you say we should do with her?” [7] Angry, they kept insisting that he answer their question, so Jesus stood up and looked at them and said, “Let’s have the man who has never had a sinful desire throw the first stone at her.”

1 John 1:5,7 – Does dark dispel light?

Here is the revelation that is shaping my life today – darkness has no power to destroy light or the invitation to walk in light. So why make sin such a big relational deal?

1 John 1:5,7 TPT
[5] God is pure light. You will never find even a trace of darkness in him. [7] But if we keep living in the pure light that surrounds him, we share unbroken fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, continually cleanses us from all sin.

Mark 12:38-39 – Beware of religion.

Here is the revelation that is shaping my life today – religion seduces me into a leadership modality that is opposite to the ways of Jesus.
Mark 12:38-39 TPT
[38] Jesus also taught the people, “Beware of the religious scholars. They love to parade around in their clergy robes and be greeted with respect on the street. [39] They crave to be made the leaders of synagogue councils, and they push their way to the head table at banquets.

Mark 2:16 – Who gets to feast?

Here is the revelation that is shaping my life today – sin defiles, so sin disqualifies, what total ridiculous trash.
Mark 2:16 TPT
[16] But when the religious scholars and the Pharisees found out that Jesus was keeping company and dining with sinners and tax collectors, they were indignant. So they approached Jesus’ disciples and said to them, “Why is it that someone like Jesus defiles himself by eating with sinners and tax collectors?”

Acts 5:38-39 – Is That God Or Man!

Here is the revelation that is shaping my life today- we can believe we are following God whilst standing in opposition to what He is doing.

Acts 5:38-39 NLT

[38] “So my advice is, leave these men alone. Let them go. If they are planning and doing these things merely on their own, it will soon be overthrown. [39] But if it is from God, you will not be able to overthrow them. You may even find yourselves fighting against God!”

Romans 7:4-6 – Participatory experience is the way to life.

Here is the revelation that is shaping my life today- no more law to follow, rather reflecting my experience of God is the way to Kingdom life.

Romans 7:4-6 NLT

[4] So, my dear brothers and sisters, this is the point: You died to the power of the law when you died with Christ. And now you are united with the one who was raised from the dead. As a result, we can produce a harvest of good deeds for God. [5] When we were controlled by our old nature, sinful desires were at work within us, and the law aroused these evil desires that produced a harvest of sinful deeds, resulting in death. [6] But now we have been released from the law, for we died to it and are no longer captive to its power. Now we can serve God, not in the old way of obeying the letter of the law, but in the new way of living in the Spirit.

1 John 1:8-9 – Fools hide sin.

This is the revelation that is shaping my life today- embracing my sin is how I follow Jesus.

1 John 1:8-9 TPT

[8] If we boast that we have no sin, we’re only fooling ourselves and are strangers to the truth. But if we freely admit our sins when his light uncovers them, he will be faithful to forgive us every time. God is just to forgive us our sins because of Christ, and he will continue to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Luke 13:34 – How do you see God?

Here is the revelation that is shaping my life today- my sin does not turn God away, even when I reject His ways.

Luke 13:34 TPT

[34] O city of Jerusalem, you are the city that murders your prophets! You are the city that pelts to death with stones the very messengers who were sent to deliver you! So many times I have longed to gather your wayward children together around me, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings-but you were too stubborn to let me.

Luke 5:8-9 – Do I Reject God’s Goodness Based on my Badness.

Here is the revelation that is shaping my life today – God gets rejected often not because He is not good, but because we perceive that He can not accept our badness.

Luke 5:8-9 NLT

[8] When Simon Peter realized what had happened, he fell to his knees before Jesus and said, “Oh, Lord, please leave me-I’m such a sinful man.” [9] For he was awestruck by the number of fish they had caught, as were the others with him.

Here is the revelation that will shape my life today…

Lord God, unlock my heart, unlock my lips, and I will overcome with my joyous praise! For the source of your pleasure is not in my performance or the sacrifices I might offer to you. The fountain of your pleasure is found in the sacrifice of my shattered heart before you. You will not despise my tenderness as I humbly bow down at your feet.
