Greetings!
Washed Away
Jesus stooped so low to identify with humanity in his fallen state, He received the sinful nature. He literally became sin. That is the only way man was ever going to have a chance at redemption. The blood of Jesus was the bargain for redemption. It is uncontaminated and most potent.
Unlike the blood of bulls and goats that were offered by the priests under the old covenant, the blood of Jesus does not merely cover up the sins of man, but rather, it completely obliterates it. It washes sins away so well that there is no record or remembrance of any wrong once you identify with Jesus.
How efficacy this is! Child of God, it is high time you began to put sin and everything that has to do with it in proper perspective. Sin has lost its power; the blood has dealt with it! The blood even still cleanses you from any act of unrighteousness that you may stumble into after being born again provided you confess such sins. Where then is the place for sin consciousness?
Make up your mind that you will never accommodate sin consciousness again. Stop the devil from weakening your faith. If God cannot remember your past sins, why should you?
DAILY SCRIPTURE READING: Hebrews 10:1-39
Jesus has paid the price for my total freedom in life. I have been bought with a price. Therefore, I glorify God in my body and spirit. For sin, I have received righteousness. For sickness, I have good health. And for poverty, I have abundance.
Jesus knew no sin but He became sin that I might be made the righteousness of God in Him.
Jesus Himself bore my grief, sicknesses, weaknesses and distress, and carried my sorrows and pains; He was wounded for my transgressions, bruised for my iniquities, the chastening for my peace and well-being fell upon Him and with His stripes I am healed.
I know the grace of my Lord Jesus Christ. Though He was very rich yet He became very poor in order that I can be made rich through His poverty. I shall not frustrate the grace of God because I am walking in the fullness of my redemptive rights.
I stand fast in the liberty I have received as a child of God. I will not be entangled any longer in the yoke of slavery. I am totally free from every form of oppression of the evil one.
I boldly declare according to Galatians 3:13 that Christ has redeemed me from the curse of the law. I am completely free from the curse of sin, sickness and poverty.
