Prayer Focus: Dealing with Sin
Scripture: Matthew 1:21
[21]And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
1 Corinthians 15:3
[3]For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
2 Corinthians 5:15
[15]And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.
Introduction:
Sin is the transgression of the law of God; disobedience of the divine command; any violation of God’s will, either in purpose or conduct; moral deficiency in the character. It is the nature of the fallen man/old man. The only way to deal with sin is to come to Jesus who came to save us from our sins by dieing on the cross of Calvary.
