Jesus knew that unless the man had the assurance that all his sins had been forgiven, he would not have faith to be healed.
Jesus is with me, so everything I do will succeed.
Jesus Christ has already delivered all believers from the covenant of law which condemns.
We may not have all the answers, but we can have full assurance that the negative circumstances that we may sometimes experience are not the works of God, neither are they punishments for our sins. When we have this confidence that God is for us and not against us, we can believe for restoration, breakthroughs and good things to happen to us.
The presence of Jesus is all that you need.
God has ordained the Holy Communion as a key channel of health and wholeness for His people.
Righteousness is not about right conduct. It is a gift from God to us through Jesus.
You must come to the place where you know and believe that all your sins are forgiven, that there is no sin that will ever disqualify you from God’s blessings, that there is no sin that will ever send you to hell, because you are forgiven and saved eternally.
Remind yourself that the Holy Spirit was sent to convict you of your righteousness apart from works. The devil will use the law as a weapon to condemn you.
John 1:17, KJV 17For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
Grace is personal and came as a person – the person of Jesus Christ.
The devil’s strategy is to make you feel like you are not qualified to enter God’s presence.
Christ is your title deed, which is why you are called a Christian today. You are not your own. You have been purchased with the precious blood of Jesus Christ. The law has no hold over you anymore!
Well, let me declare once and for all that there is no sin that a Christian is not forgiven of. When you understand why God sent the Holy Spirit, you will realize that the unpardonable sin is simply to consistently reject Jesus!
Righteousness is not about right doing. Righteousness is about right believing. You are made righteous in God’s eyes when you put your faith in Christ and His sacrifice for you. It is through Jesus’ obedience that we have been made righteous and justified from all our sins. Justification is our Lord Jesus removing all the guilt and penalty of sin and proclaiming that we have been made righteous by His shed blood.
The good news is not preached to show you what is wrong with you. It is preached to show you what is right with you because of Jesus’ work at Calvary, in spite of what is wrong with you!
God sees your relationship with Him as the only thing that you need for every success in your life.
To understand the total forgiveness of sins, we have to understand the value of the person Who sacrificed Himself on the cross for us. He alone, because He was sinless, could pay for all the sins of every man. When our Lord Jesus died at Calvary, He took all of humanity’s sins with one sacrifice of Himself at the cross. He took the judgment, punishment, and condemnation for all sins upon Himself. That’s the value of the one Man, Jesus. He is an overpayment for all our sins.
Today’s Prayer Lord Jesus, thank You for loving me, for being interested in my success and for wanting to bless me in every area of my life. I cast every care on my heart into Your hands. Thank You for Your unmerited favor that gives me wisdom and strength to overcome every problem and to live victoriously today.
I believe that God wants to restore the true meaning and power of the Holy Communion to the church so that His people will rightly discern His body when they come to the Table. This will cause them to become strong and healthy, and to live long.
