NO MORE SINKING FEELING

Romans 8:1 NLT Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus.

Did you ever have that sinking feeling when you made a mistake and knew you were going to be in trouble for it, that someone would condemn you? But God wants us all to know something today. He’s not like that! He’s not out to punish us but to forgive us because of Jesus.

You see He’s promised to bring to completion what He has started in each one of us and when we don’t always get things right He doesn’t condemn us, beat us down, or ridicule us, or tell us we’re useless or less than. 

Psalm 145:14 NIV The Lord upholds all who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down. Maybe you feel bowed down by circumstances? If so, remember He picks us up, dusts us off and He tells us He’s in our battles with us, He’s going to fix the problem or turn it round for our good. He reminds us He’s made us to be more than conquerors and with His help we will overcome when we trust Him and our eyes are fixed on Him.

God honours our ‘try’ even when we don’t always get it right. He knows what’s in our hearts so I just want to encourage us all this coming week, to remember whatever we’re experiencing right now is only temporary, that God has plans to give us a future and a hope that will bless us before a watching world, not to put us down but to build us up. 

We can look to Him and go to Him with confidence knowing He’s on our side, He’s rooting for us and if something has come against us, He won’t let it destroy us. 

Our God is a good, good Father and His blessing is on each one of us who love Jesus.😊 So we can go out with courage and with confidence in our God knowing He’s with us, He loves us and we can walk in His grace and favour as we stand in faith and believe His promises this week. In Jesus name. Amen.
