Our God knows us


Today's Verse is Mark 14:30
And Jesus saith unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this day, even in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice.

Here we have an example, Jesus knowing Peter, and what Peter will do in response to the cross, yet Jesus still went to the cross for Peter. Our God knows us, he knows our wickedness, all of our failures, all of our weaknesses, our false successes, he knows all of it, and yet, still he took our place, took our punishment, paid our price, that we might stand in his place, by his power, in his love.  Just as Jesus forgave Peter, so by that same cross, he forgives all that accept that gift made available to us by that cross. And through that cross, and by his Word, we can have true success, and by faith in him, a victorious life. Let us therefore, rest in his payment and surrender to him, and by faith give him our all.

To God be the Glory
Scott
