Our sins are forgive Bible App

The devil wants you to believe the lie that you are unworthy so he can keep you enslaved to sin and hopelessness. We often beat ourselves up about our behavior and our sins. We feel burdened by the guilt and condemnation that we lay on ourselves! It could be that you are basing your belief about God’s forgiveness on your feelings rather than on God’s word. Our emotions can’t discern the truth from lies. They just respond to what we think. It’s dangerous to base truth on how we “feel.” Feelings come and go, but God’s Word never changes.

 

God’s mercy and grace will enable you to turn from the sinful lifestyle that once held you captive. As you believe this more deeply and renovate your mind, you will be set free from self-condemnation. Just believe in God.

 

The only way to truly know you are forgiven is to believe God’s Word. God has forgiven you based on what Christ did, not on what you do. Jesus Christ was the perfect God/Man who died so that we might be fully and completely forgiven of all our sins (past, present and future). Jesus died for the sins of the whole world. Not one sin was left out (except the sin of rejecting Him).

 

When you trust in who Christ is and what He did, you receive the forgiveness His sacrifice provided. Apart from God’s full forgiveness, we could not have a relationship with Him and He could not live in us. Everyone in Christ lives in a forgiven state with God, 24/7. The Biblical word for this is justified, which means God relates to us “just-if-I’d” never sinned.

 

One reason we question God’s forgiveness is that we believe God has only forgiven our past sins and not our future sins. We mistakenly think that any new sins that we commit separate us from God once again.

 

When we receive Christ into our life, our forgiveness is a settled issue once and for all. The issue now is not forgiveness but understanding how Christ’s life within us can set us free from sin’s destructive power.

 

So, go ahead and receive it! Agree with God and thank Him for His complete forgiveness. This is where freedom begins. You either believe God that you are forgiven or you are saying that Christ’s death on the cross was not sufficient to pay for your sins!

Galatians 6 /8-10

Hebrews 4/12

Isaiah 43

Proverbs 4 vs 23

Bible App Devotional

To obtain truth, we need 4 Rs:

1. Revelation (new enlightenment or understanding of Truth)

2. Renovate (trash the lie(s); study and meditate on Truth)

3. Rely (rest in and live out of the Truth)

4. Resist (resist the devil and stand firm in the Truth)

 

We all need revelation of God to know him better. We need an eye-opening experience, a revelation, to see the things of God that we cannot possibly see with our physical eyes. God wants to give us his revelation. He has poured it out in his scripture. He has made it clear that he wants us to have it. So if we want more revelation, we have to ask for it. He is faithful. When we ask, he provides every time. 

 

Renovate, defined in the dictionary is to make new, or renew. Renovating your mind takes time, takes commitment, and takes courage. It is choosing something different than what everyone else is choosing. In the battle of renewing your mind in God’s word, you will be met with resistance. 

 

When the enemy comes behind you and the enemy tries to steal, kill, and destroy you, he will make you look at your blemished past. Don’t. Rely on God and look forward. Stop looking at your flaws. Stop looking at your past. You have been bought with a price. Jesus Christ took all your flaws and that alone makes you worthy. Rely on God.

 

Do you need to resist the enemy? Is there a place right now where the enemy is involved in your life and you know it? Put up your barriers. When you know what you have in Christ and you know who you are in him, you will begin to put up barriers against the enemy. 

 

Even when you are relying on God, when you are renewing your mind, when you are resisting the enemy, you will still meet with other resistance. It can be something like a desire to not work, not push forward. Just starting to get into the word of God breaks the resistance. It is going to set you free. There is freedom where the truth is.

Where can you find a blessing ? | Power Poetry

Where can you find a blessing ? | Power Poetry

Where do you find a blessing ?

When the trees stop whispering and the ocean stop roaring.

When the pen can't write and everything around you is one big fight .

When everything is steel and your heart can no longer feel , when all the music stops playing and a poor child won't even try praying.

Where can you find a blessing ?

Where a smile can't be found and your own cant bare to hear the sound .

A fist, a slap ,a woopin is suppose to say " I love you my child," but all it does is make you go out and       do something wild .

Where do you find a blessing ?

Somebody please tell the story because i want to feel joy wants more .

But my mama also said " We might endure for a night but joy come in the morning .

If you wait ,so I wait , and try not to hate . So I put my ear to the earth and I wait. 

I listen also quietly and I put my eyes to the sky and I wait . I try to see blessings are really free.

But this I know that we are the most steer , that God really let you feel the blessing one through you and one through me .

In due season

"Warrior for Christ
