i did something i promised God i wasnt going to do again, this thing doesnt have to do with immoralty or any known sin but only deals with everyday life. now i'm very sorry but i just feel His presence any more evrn when i pray, and i have asked for forgiveness
Joe, God forgives us in Christ when we confess our faults
to Him and ask that we be forgiven in CHRIST.
God is true and He forgives but we are the ones who hold on to our guilt
as if we must somehow suffer to pay for our mistakes.
Jesus suffered for us so what we are asked to do is confess our
faults to God through Christ and RECEIVE forgiveness.
You have told God you are sorry so RECEIVE His forgiveness.
How do you receive?
By faith that when God says something it is true.
1 John 1:9
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our
sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.
Look at my signature line...
Do you see what it says?
It says that God made Christ who was sinless to become our sin
so that we could be and have Christ's righteousness before God.
God sees Christ when we come to Him in Christ's name.
We are the sons and daughters of God in Christ.
If you come to God in your own strength, merit and goodness you
will come away feeling as though nothing happened but when you by
faith come to God in Christ's name you can rest assured that God
has forgiven you and that you are His son and are BLESSED.
The devil will try to hold us in our guilt but if we believe that God is
true and what He says can be counted on, we will ignore the devil,
confess our sins and receive our forgiveness not because we are good
enough, sorry enough or have suffered enough but because Christ made
a way for us by His taking all our sins on Himself.
On Christ alone I stand, all other ground is sinking sand.
Take it by faith.....
