Have you been struggling to find righteousness?
Are you driving yourself hard to be sanctified?
And for their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they also may be sanctified by the truth.
John 17:19 [NKJV]
Do not ever forget that only Jesus can sanctify Himself. We do not have the ability, as earthen vessels, to sanctify ourselves. We respond to the Word of God. We seek to obey the Lord and to deny the flesh. But we cannot succeed perfectly.
But because Jesus has prepared Himself perfectly and completely, we are made ready to stand before Almighty God. Believers can make this claim because Christ has made us one with Him. And that makes all the difference.
Be encouraged, Jose
