Job displayed a noble desire and accountability to do what was right. He declared, “If I have … (committed many categories of sin, then let me suffer penalty results).” Such was further evidence that God had indeed focused on an exemplary man.

However, as the NT scripture says, “All have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” Whether we commit one sin only, or a gazillion sins, we MUST experience the washing of the blood of Jesus to be faultless in God’s sight. We needed as Saviour.

PRAYER: Lord, apart from the blood of Jesus, there is no cleansing from sin. Precious is the Lamb of God Who takes away the sin of the world.
