Prayer before the Word:

TODAY’S TOPIC: You are not condemned by God
Text: John 7:2-11 (NIV):
"8:2. At dawn he appeared again in the temple courts, where all the people gathered around him, and he sat down to teach them.
8:3. The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group
8:4. and said to Jesus, "Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery.
8:5. In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?"
8:6. They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him. But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger.
8:7. When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her."
8:8. Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground.
8:9. At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first, until only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there.
8:10. Jesus straightened up and asked her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?"
8:11. "No one, sir," she said. "Then neither do I condemn you," Jesus declared. "Go now and leave your life of sin."
SHOWER (Reflection):
Christ Jesus did not come to kill but to give an everlasting life, to restore life, make life better and increase our yield. A woman was condemned over what the world claimed she did wrong. But because God is ever merciful, He did not condemn her. Of a truth, the world can hate or condemn you over nothing. God is telling you today not to shake as He will not forsake you too. Our God does not judge like humans do. His word is A and Amen. He is our final bus stop... Believe it and enjoy everlasting joy. Like this woman, when the world condemns and drags you out for disgrace, you shall be restored in Jesus name, Amen.
