Tag: Redeemed From ALL Iniquites - Psalm 128-130

Psalms 130:8
And he will redeem Israel
from all his iniquities.

Tag:  Redeemed From ALL Iniquities

Psalm 130 is a praise psalm.   The writer is thanking God for His great mercy upon the nation of Israel. Note what the writer said previously in the chapter:

Psalms 130:3-4
If you, O Lord, should mark iniquities,
O Lord, who could stand?
But with you there is forgiveness,
that you may be feared.

The last verse of the song tells us that God redeems Israel from ALL iniquities. What a marvelous truth to rejoice over today.   God forgives us, not partially, but completely.   God forgives us, no half way, but all the way.   This is a praise for today, tomorrow and forever.   In light of this thought we might think of David’s words in the following Psalm:

Psalms 51:7-10
Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean;
wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
Let me hear joy and gladness;
let the bones that you have broken rejoice.
Hide your face from my sins,
and blot out all my iniquities.
Create in me a clean heart, O God,
and renew a right spirit within me.


When God cleans us, He cleans us!!  We are purged and cleansed by the blood of the Lamb.  Our forgiveness comes at great expense: The blood of Christ.  We can rejoice that His blood saves us from ALL our iniquities.
