Do you remember that because of Christ, we have peace with God (i.e reconciliation with Him) and peace on earth? That His birth gave us hope and a reason to celebrate? I hope you do.
After starting a relationship with God, even in the course of the relationship, you might feel that you’re not totally free from your past sins. I mean somewhere in your mind, you know that you’re free from sin but it seems you cannot get rid of the guilt. You might feel condemned. The devil might come around and whisper : “you’ll never be good enough” in your ears.
This “realm of death” describes our former state, for we were held in sin’s grasp. But now, we’ve been resurrected out of that “realm of death” never to return, for we are forever alive and forgiven of all our sins! He canceled out every legal violation we had on our record and the old arrest warrant that stood to indict us. He erased it all—our sins, our stained soul—he deleted it all and they cannot be retrieved ! Everything we once were in Adam has been placed onto his cross and nailed permanently there as a public display of cancellation.
Colossians 2:13-14 TPT
This Scripture above is just so comforting. It tells us that Christ has erased the record of all our sins. In other words, the old you is totally gone and you are new! Isn’t this amazing?
This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!
2 Corinthians 5:17 NLT
Knowing this reality, when those condemning thoughts come, rebuke them. Fight back with Scriptures.
P. S: I’ll include some Scriptures that show the reality of the New You below so be on the lookout.
Refuse to let those thoughts linger. If you do, guilt might come into the picture and will most likely lead to you drawing back from God. This, is what the devil wants.
In 2021, refuse to let yourself be condemned! You don’t have to feel guilty about who you were before you met Christ. Christ isn’t ashamed of you. YOU ARE NEW!
READ THAT AGAIN! …
