DAY 2 8 5
Declared Righteous
David also spoke of this when he described the happiness of those who are
declared righteous without working for it: “Oh, what joy for those whose
disobedience is forgiven, whose sins are put out of sight. Yes, what joy for
those whose record the Lord has cleared of sin.” ROMANS 4:6-8
Love Letter from God
Beloved Daughter,
I long to see the day when you dance in celebration because you are free
and forgiven. When you truly understand who you are in Me, nothing will
be able to steal your joy again. Celebrate that all guilt is gone. Celebrate that
no weapon formed against you will prosper. Celebrate that you have purpose. Celebrate the power you have in Me to overcome anything and to do
things that will further My Kingdom. Celebrate that you and I together will
walk through every difficult river and you will not drown. Celebrate that you
have a royal inheritance. Most of all, celebrate that you have eternity to look
forward to.
Love,
Your heavenly Father
Reflection
When we repent of our sins, God is so gracious that He not only forgives us,
but He even forgets our sin. If you feel chained to your mistakes, recognize
that those thoughts are not from God. You are free! Choose to reject the sin
that is covered by the blood of Christ, and choose to celebrate that this is a
new day.
Treasure of Truth
Leave your past where it belongs—at the Cross!
