I will remember your sins no more

I will remember your sins no more 

"And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. (Heb.10.17)

God did not mince words, He was not only upfront and personal, He was direct and straightforward: "Their sins and iniquities will I remember no more."

God says He will not remember your sins and iniquities. I do not why a lot of people are making frantic efforts to remind God of their sins. We must learn not only to forgive ourselves but also to accept the forgiveness that God through Jesus Christ has provided for us. 

The New Covenant makes it possible for God to look at you and not see your sins. Is that to say we can continue in sin? God forbid. But that does not mean it is not true. When God looks at you he sees the blood that was shared on your behalf.

That means if we miss it as we sometimes do, there is provision for restoration. And, once you settle it with God, you move on and do not allow the enemy to drag you in the mud and try to suffocate you with guilt. That is what Romans 8 means when it says:
"There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." (Rom.8.1)

When the enemy of your soul, the accuser of the brethren comes to accuse you before God, God says I don't remember. 

 "Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in mercy. He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea." (Mic.7.181)

Good day,
Have a great day today,

What's in a name?

What's in a name?  "He named him Noah, saying, "This one will give us a break from the hard work of farming the ground that GOD cursed." (Gen.5.29)  Names have prophetic attributes in them. When a thing is named, the name defines what it does and what it cannot do. When a person is named, his future is foretold, especially when the persons parents are in tune with the agenda of God. But that person has to work to bring that prophecy to reality.  John the baptist was a case in point when the wrong name would have been given. If the parent had not listened and obeyed God's instruction but instead bow to family and societal pressure.  "And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be called John." (Luke.1.60)  Another example is Benjamin, the second son from the loved-wife of Jacob. As the mother was dying from the pain of childbirth, he called the child Benoni but his father says not so, he shall be called Benjamin  "With her las

Jesus is the answer to the sin problem

Jesus is the answer to the sin problem  "When he served as a sacrifice for our sins, he solved the sin problem for good--not only ours, but the whole world's". (1John.1.2 MSB) When Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden of Eden, the sin passed through them to all men. And so the Bible recorded that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.  "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:" (Rom.5.12)  But that was just the beginning of the story. Sin entered the world, and death came as a result of sin. It appears that mankind was doomed.  But Jesus came and served the punishment for sin and in so doing, He solved the sin problem for good. Now mankind has access once again to the Father. Now everything the Father has for us is at our disposal. Now we can reign by Jesus Christ and receive the abundance that God has for us.  "For if by one man's offence death reigned b

Keep reaching

Image
My message to you today is straightforward, keep reaching. Whatever you have achieved is behind, there is still more ahead, stretch, reach, there is more ahead. God has more in store for you. Paul says I count not myself to have apprehended. In other words, I have come a long way, I have seen this and seen that but there is more ahead. Everything behind me is behind, I'm forgetting those things and reaching forward. If your most impressive achievements yesterday are what you're talking about today, you know you need to reach. "Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before" (Phil.3.13) This is one thing I do... forgetting those things which are behind. Forget whatever you have achieved until now. There's more ahead, but you have to reach. Blind Bartimaeus had to let go of who he was to become who he could be. (see Mark:10:46-52
