Devotional

Nothing impedes growth and destroys one’s future like the feeling of guilt. It’s an emotional response to our old sinful life. We feel we’ve had enough sin that God can never forgive us. But the Scripture says in 2 Cor. 5:17, “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away…” And that’s our new identity in Christ Jesus. In Him, we’re called into a new life of great possibilities and not to regret, guilt and damnation. For through His death and resurrection, our sins and its consequences are wiped away. Alleluia!

Key Scripture

Do not call to mind the former things; pay no attention to the things of old.
Isaiah 43:18 BSB

You may have made mistakes in the past – we all have, but don’t let guilt that’s no more, stunt your growth. Don’t give enemy, the accuser of brethren the chance to ruin your future. Just keep on basking in your new found life and joy in Christ Jesus. Stay Lifted!
