Fullness of Forgiveness

The Fullness of God’s Forgiveness.

“He that is in us is GREATER than he that is in the world”.

Sin weighs down the soul, so much that it begins to physically effect a person.

Remember…we must first recognize our ungodly thoughts before we can hand them over to God. We can’t give something to God if we don’t know it exists.
* “I acknowledged my sin to Thee, and my iniquity I did not hide; I said, ‘I will confess my transgressions to the Lord’; and Thou didst forgive the guilt of my sin.'”Psalm 32:5

* God wants us to come to Him the first time and daily- as we are – in our imperfections. He wants us to trust Him to love us as we are.

“NO FISHING.” Do not go down there and try to fish old sins out once God has dealt with them. What relief comes when we begin to understand this “Fullness of God’s Forgiveness”.

*“As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us” (Psalm 103:12).
Think—How far is that? Well, how far do you have to go east before you start going west? You never come to west. Then God says He will “hurl all our iniquities into the depths of the sea” (Micah 7:19).
*This IS true Fullness of God’s Forgiveness!!!

In forming the new covenant, God obligated Himself by an oath to supply all the enabling power and strength to fulfill every condition and demand of the covenant.
So, when God says by oath, “I will do it,” faith in us responds, “Let it be so.”

** The new covenant is all about our Lord’s commitment to keep His children from falling, and to console, comfort and assure us that the power and dominion of sin CAN and WILL be broken by the Holy Spirit who indwells us.

**This Truth is the only hope for those believers who have lost heart in their
struggle against a besetting sin.
* Only by having the new covenant unveiled to us can we learn the secret to having Total Victory over sin.

** “This is the new covenant I will make with my people on that day, says the LORD: I will put my laws in their hearts, and I will write them on their minds.”  Then he says, “I will never again remember their sins and lawless deeds.” And when sins have been forgiven, there is no need to offer any more sacrifices.(Hebrews 10:16 -18)
***Forgiven, accept it, enjoy it.
*God does not hold grudges against us he fully forgives us. There are consequences for our actions but he will always give us his grace & mercy to get through tough times and challenges.

1Jn 4:4 But you belong to God, my dear children. You have already won a victory over those people, because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world.

**Death is the only way out of the old covenant and into the NEW.
* Flesh faith has to die—no more striving to believe.
If I am to have faith—true faith, the faith of Christ—He must give it to me.
We have been given a measure of faith, yet if it is true that I can do nothing of myself, then this includes having His faith.
* That is why Scripture calls it “the faith of Christ.”
Galatians 3:26 For you are all children of God through faith in Christ Jesus. 27 And all who have been united with Christ in baptism have put on Christ, like putting on new clothes.
*Think about it. We are not bound by the task master of the law but we are free to walk in fellowship with a Savior who loves us and allows us to walk freely and forgiven.
*When Christ comes and we place our faith in His perfect and completed sacrifice(Cross), we are made free from the control of the law because we have been freed. We become sons and daughters of Christ. We are no longer prisoners but we are free to call out to our “Abba Father” or heavenly dad.

Are you sin-sick? Are you truly yearning to live a holy life, free from the
habituating lusts of the flesh?
Then get ready to die to the flesh . Get ready to embrace the cross. The old covenant will bring you to your wits’ end—to nothingness.
*When you have given up all hope of overcoming sin by your own human power and will—– THEN  you are ready to enter the glorious realm of Freedom through the new covenant.
Eph. 1:7 He is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood of his Son and forgave our sins.
*Many of us have not been delivered because we are too ashamed to admit we are struggling.
******Admit the Sin and Listen!
Every one of us is recovering from something. We ALL are addicted to some sin. (Romans 3:23 For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard).

Galatians 3:22 But the Scriptures declare that we are all prisoners of sin, so we receive God’s promise of freedom only by believing in Jesus Christ.

What you really believe changes what you do. And when you really believe in Christ, His power changes your life to be able to do what God demands, but normal man only wishes he could change. “By grace are you saved through faith…” This is not in theory, but God’s salvation actually Transforms people, that is why proof is essential, and fruit is the evidence.

The fruit of change is the character, attitudes, and actions of God coming through the lives of those who are True Belivers. The “wanna be Christians” are actually hypocrites, and they can deceive people, but not Jesus, because some hide their sins in secret where only God sees them. But He will bring justice.

Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions. Wash away all my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin (Psalm 51:1-2).

God has fixed it so that true believers will always be victorious, according to His will and purpose, so we never loose! Isn’t it awesome to know that once we do what God wants us to do; things will always work out in our favor and for Gods Glory! So the challenge is for us to grab hold of He that is spiritually IN us and loose holt of our worldly flesh selves and watch victory after victory manifest in our lives!
*We do not fight for victory. We fight from victory.

For I now truly know that greater is HE that is in me— thank You for taking me from glory to glory, higher than I ever imagine. Thank you for The Fullness of Your Forgiveness. Thank You Jesus for taking on all my sins on the Cross Showing Your Great Love for a sinner like me— I am SET FREE!  Thank You!  Amen
