Greetings in Christ to my beloved sisters!
My sisters are those who love the Lord and do the Father's will. They have repented of their sins and the false ways they were in. They obey because God has made them new creations in Him and they hate sin and every false way! And let us all keep striving on together in the faith sisters! We are God's family! He is holy...so we are to be too!
I did some cleaning today, and as we sisters may often think about when we do such things, was thinking how we have been washed clean and made new creations!
I'm sure all of you godly women clean many things throughout your Titus 2 days whether it is dishes or clothes or any other number of things. What a blessing water itself is of course!

But how much more awesome is the spiritual washing that we can get from the Lord! So here I share just a few verses to edify and encourage us with great thankfulness. We know we can come to God through Christ for cleansing when we repent.
And it shall come to pass, that he that is left in Zion, and he that remaineth in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, even every one that is written among the living in Jerusalem:
When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from the midst thereof by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning.
Isaiah 4:3-4
I was thinking about that one while I was washing away dirt. How awesome! What a holy God we serve and He can make us clean! We know of all the filth of sin and lies we once were in before we followed after Christ and were born by His Spirit. And the more we grow along this path the more we see of the holiness fo God. Praise Him for His Word and Spirit that teaches us good and evil.
(And I share some various older pictures of water scenes too. Glory to the Creator!)
And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
1 Corinthians 6:11
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
1 John 1:7-9
Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
Hebrews 10:22
And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.
Revelation 7:14-15
What a glorious God we have! Only He could do this...
Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
Isaiah 1:18
I'm sure you sisters are so thankful for what the Lord has done in your life! I am!
Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom. Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
Psalm 51:6-7
Praise God! He is worthy! And I know you sisters are joyous to be clean too! We rejoice together in the Lord for all He has done!
And we are also thankful to be godly Titus 2 women. And that can involve a lot of washing things with water. It is such an amazing creation and essential to life. Glory to God the creator for all He has done!
I think I shall go now sisters. It is such a blessing to be able to edify each other daily either by blogs or by personal messages. God is good to give us these gifts. We can learn from one another and remind each other of many different things in this life in Christ. It's such a blessing!
Remember sisters that if God is not first in someone's life and they don't have love for Him by keeping His commands...then they are none of His. We know it is few who find the narrow road but let us keep striving on no matter if we are alone or not. We hope others repent as God can cleanse them too!
I hope your Titus 2 works go well today and everything else good, pure, and true that you have to do. Keep doing your good works as unto the Lord sister saints!
In Christ's love,
Sister Michaela
