The Leverage Devotional by Apostle Segun Obadje 9 FEBRUARY 2024: FREEDOM FROM GUILT AND CONDEMNATION
Topic:FREEDOM FROM GUILT AND CONDEMNATION
Romans 8:1-4; Hebrews 8:12
8 Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, 2 because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you[a] free from the law of sin and death. 3 For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh,[b] God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering.[c] And so he condemned sin in the flesh, 4 in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
and will remember their sins no more.”[
Leverage Devotional For Today Message:
Do you know it’s possible to live your life free of condemnation and free of every form of guilt? God intended for you to enjoy that sense of rich self-esteem that brings you to a place where you feel accepted, you feel justified, and you feel like nothing can successfully go against you. This is what Jesus Christ brought to us through His finished works. Read the opening scripture once again. Can you see that there’s no condemnation to you in Christ? Jesus Christ paid the full price for the complete forgiveness and total remission of your sins. God has granted you a divine pardon and no devil can lay anything to your charge. There is no record of your past sins with God. God says He will remember them no more. That’s powerful, isn’t it?
Beloved, understand that your sins were paid for, and you have been made the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. But if you sin (emphasis on ‘if’ because you ought not to sin), you must repent of your sins. 1 John 1:9 says, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” So, if you sin, you have a responsibility to confess and repent of all unrighteousness and the blood of Jesus will remit your sins. You already have the forgiveness and remission of your sins (Colossians 1:14). God will not (and cannot) bring up your sinful past because the blood that washed you clean did not leave any traces of sin in you. Your sins were perfectly blotted out and God is faithful and just to forgive you if you slip and make a mistake. So, there’s no more guilt; no more condemnation. Resist the devil with this truth whenever he tries to bring up your sinful past and he will flee from you.
My Solid Front (Confession)
Heavenly Father, I thank You for there is no more condemnation to me because of the substitutionary works of Christ done for me at Calvary. My sins are forgiven. I am free from guilt and condemnation. I walk in the present hour consciousness of this reality, and I rebuke every thought and feeling of condemnation in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Further Meditation: Romans 8:31-39; John 3:18-21
31 What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? 33 Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. 34 Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? 36 As it is written: “For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.”[a]
37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[b] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. 19 This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. 20 Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. 21 But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.
