Do you ever feel condemned? Even though you have asked God to forgive your sins and you have received Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord? That's just the enemy of your soul, the old accuser of the brethren trying to come at you with that accusatory spirit,Rev 12:10 Well...no more! You have been made the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus!, 2 Cor 5:21, You don't live under the law of sin and death anymore. You are a child of the Most High God and joint heirs with His son Jesus. You have been redeemed from your old life and now the Word says behold all things are become new, 2 Cor 5:17, you are like a beautiful butterfly that has just come out of its chrysalis, you are now ready to take flight in your new life with Christ.
Don't let anyone tell you that your sins are still being held against you, God has thrown your sins into the sea to never to be remembered against you anymore, The Word says in 1 John 1:9 "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us of our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." not some sins but ALL SINS. So, when the enemy comes at you, just tell him, my sins have been forgiven, I am redeemed from the curse. We don't have to go through life feeling beat down, remembering our old past and our old way of life. Yes, it is good to remember and be grateful from where God brought us but, we don't have to live there anymore. Thanks be to God, He has removed our sins as far as the East is from the West, Psalm 103:12 tells us.
So rejoice today, because as long as you are walking in the light as He is in the light you will have fellowship with Him and the blood of Jesus Christ His son cleanses you from every sin, as long as you walk in the light with Him,1 John 1:7, He isn't remembering your sins against you anymore. He sees you as covered by the blood of His precious son Jesus, He sees you forgiven, redeemed, priceless, a child of the Most High God. Don't let what others say or do make you have that old sin consciousness any more. Someone may say, well, I know some things about you, you have some skeletons in your closet that you don't want anyone to know about, well...just tell them the old dried up skeleton bones in my closet have the blood of Jesus on them and they don't hinder me anymore. My guilt is gone hallelujah!! I AM REDEEMED!
