Keeping yourself pure or is not something that other people will do for you, it is your sole responsibility to keep yourself pure or clean, and just as you cannot go a day without taking a bath or shower, so also you need daily cleansing by the word of God in order to be bure.
1John 3:1-3 says, Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.
Certainly, this is the blessed hope of every believer, and if you want to see him and be like him, you must make every effort to purify yourself. Yes, you purify yourself by forgiving people and rejecting sinful activities. Please, remember: The devil will keep on throwing dirty things at you, he may throw injustice, disrespectful spouse, quarrels, even fornication and adultery, but it is your duty to keep cleaning yourself with the word of God to be pure, because you have a blessed hope which is the sure return of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Thus, as you worship God today, may God help you and grant you the ability to keep yourself pure everyday, so you could be like him and see him when he comes in Jesus name. You are blessed. Jesus loves you and I do too.
