20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.
21 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled
22 In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:
23 If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;
KEY VERSE: Colossians 1:21,22

DAILY MANNA FOR TODAY
In the forests of northern Europe and Asia lives a little animal called the ermine, known for his snow-white fur in winter. He instinctively protects his white coat against anything that would soil it. Fur hunters take advantage of this unusual trait of the ermine. They do not set a snare to catch him, but instead they find his home, which is usually a cleft in a rock or a hollow in an old tree. They smear the entrance and interior with grime. Then the hunters set their dogs loose to find and chase the ermine. The frightened animal flees toward home but does not enter because of the filth. Rather than soil his white coat, he is trapped by the dogs and captured while preserving his purity. For the ermine, purity is more precious than life.
Paul emphasised the key role Christ played in the reconciliation of mankind to God. As our High Priest, He offered Himself and shed His blood for our redemption. His goal is to present us holy, spotless and unblameable in God’s sight. This whole plan is hinged on our continuing in the faith, grounded, and to ensure we have hope of eternal life.
Sanctification is a doctrine taught and elaborated upon in Scriptures. It is a definite Christian experience that sets us apart from the world. With inbred sin removed, we love God supremely and become more tied with His church and purpose. Inner struggles of the depraved nature are removed; inner peace reigns, and we serve the Lord in holiness with joy and fulfilment.
Church attendance is good, but not enough to possess the holiness experience. We must pray in faith and thirst for it until we receive the fulfilment of the promise.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
We need grace, prayer and watchfulness to be preserved in holiness.
