TOPIC: No More Guilt or Condemnation
SCRIPTURE READING: Therefore, [there is] now no condemnation (no adjudging guilty of wrong) for those who are in Christ Jesus, who live [and] walk not after the dictates of the flesh, but after the dictates of the Spirit. – ROMANS 8:1 (AMPC)
Joyce Meyer Daily Devotional 27 August 2022 MESSAGE
One of the major problems for many believers is the recurrence of feeling guilty and condemned for past sins that they have received forgiveness for. Satan’s great delight is to make us feel bad about ourselves, and one way to do that is by making us feel guilty. Even though it is a false guilt, if we accept it, we are affected adversely by it.
The Bible teaches that through the blood of Jesus, We have complete forgiveness and total freedom from condemnation. We don’t need to add our guilt to His sacrifice upon the cross. He is more than enough.
If the devil tries to bring that sin to your mind again in the form of guilt and condemnation, declare to him: “1 was forgiven for that sin! It has been taken care of; therefore, I take no care for it.”
