In this devotion it is clear to me that the Lord is interested in purity. This is something that we all must strive for. Purity must be worked in us by his grace and mercy. It is also something that we are responsible to work at ourselves. One of the passage that needs to be read in connection with this passage is Philippians 4:12 Here Paul instructs the believers to think on these things. If we do this it is assured that we will have purity in thought and in deed. Notice that he says, whatsoever things are true,honest, just, pure, lovely, of a good report. This is not hard to do with so many passage in the Bible that are filled with all the above mentioned. The great promise is almost mind boggling, they shall see God. Wow think on that, we shall see him in whom is hid all the treasures of wisdom, we shall see him in whom we shall be like, we shall see him in his glory and beauty beyond description. Oh to be like him and to see him. To behold the lamb of God, the water of life, the door, the alpha and the omega, the first and the last. What a great grace that will be. Keep in mind that purity is a grace of God worked in us, and then it is worked out of us just like all graces are. May the God of all grace be with you always.
