Daily Bible Readings YLT March 4th

What can we do if we are married and our spouse suspects we are guilty of adultery? They can spy on us, they can watch over us with suspicion, they can stand away from us and hold their love away from us. Whatever is done, the closeness is gone, the intimacy is gone, the trust is gone. God gives a way to clear away such suspicion and restore the marriage. What does this mean spiritually, for all Scripture must be read with the help and the eyes and wisdom of the Holy Spirit. The Bible cannot be read as a secular book, as a book of history, or sociology or science or any other kind of worldly knowledge.All Scripture is God-breathed and is profitable for teaching, for conviction, for setting aright, for instruction in righteousness. 2 Tim 3:16Where any relationship we have is marred and we do not know why, we can pray that God will reveal it to us. We may be convicted in our soul, and this is a bitter thing. Then when we experience this bitterness of soul, we can ask God, if we do not know what we have done wrong, to tell us what it is, that we may acknowledge it, face it and confess it before God with sorrow in our heart, that we might be forgiven and restored.Jesus said that if a person lusted in their heart for another person who is not their spouse then they were already guilty of adultery. What is inside us cannot be seen but God sees. Those who choose to follow Jesus will be convicted by the Holy Spirit who lives in us, of sin, of righteousness and of judgement, and will come to a knowledge of the truth. Then we can choose to be cleansed by Jesus who is willing that we should be clean, and we will be clean. Whom the Son has freed shall be free indeed. Then we are no longer outside of the community where God dwells among His people but together with them in a restored relationship.All things will be brought into the light and seen for what they are clearly. John 3:20 Luke 8:17Lord, cleanse us inside for, as you have said, it is not the outside of our bodies which needs washing but the inside, for from our heart comes all evil. Matt 15:19. And from our hearts also comes all good, when God has washed us and we are washed in the Word: for every good thing comes from God and is of God James 1;17 Luke 18:19
