Redeemed from the past

5 January 2011.

Ephesians 1:7-8 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace which he lavished upon us.

It is just great to be a born again Believer, simply because we have been redeemed through the blood of Jesus Christ. Forgiveness of sin has happened, and because of that we rejoice in His grace. Men will judge us and find us guilty, children will accuse of us of being bad parents, people will do what people do, but Christ finds no fault for those who love Him. When we dwell in the past with vain regrets and what if’s we allow them to be held against us. When we come to understand that Jesus understands, Jesus cares, then we find the freedom from the past. Jesus was there with us when did those sinful things and He understands our hearts and He still loves us.

What an awesome God we serve, He came not to judge us but to save us. His grace is there for us all and He lavished us with His love. We may feel hurt by the world, we may be rejected by the world, Jesus wipes away our tears and holds us tight in His love and He will never reject us. As Believers we have this secret that the world does not have, and we are the only hope through the power of the Holy Spirit to share it with those caught in the sin of the world.

Be encouraged today to praise God for what He has done for us.
