Racism:
Do you ever think less of a person just becuase of how they look or where they come from?
It seems to be human nature to judge people this way. But those thoughts are not from God, they are part of the devil's trap called racism.
Racism can only be defeated by looking at one another the way God sees us. God sees us as His children, adopted by Him through the blood of His Son Jesus. He has called us His Friends, His Sons, a Royal Priesthood, a Holy Nation, a Blessed People.
He tells Peter in Acts 10, that whatsoever He has blessed and cleansed, call not thou common. We are not common anymore.
The next time you see someone different from you, remember how God sees that person and thank God for them. Through doing this you will let the Holy Spirit start to heal those wounds of racism that are deep within your heart.

The cross destroyed sin! Jesus has the keys to death, hell and the grave!
We have to stop trying to save ourselves or somehow make up for our sins. Jesus is the only one who can forgive us of our sins. He did that for us on the cross. He paid our debt, he bought us with His life. |
