A lie satan tells Christians when they realize that they sinned is he overwhelms them with feelings of condemnation to make them feel unworthy of even praying for forgiveness
So he tells them to stay away from God for a while till the guilt of sin wears out and till they earn favour with God by doing good,and that’s when they can come back to God and pray for repentance.
Satan uses this lie because he knows as long as he can keep you away from God he can continue to have power over you and sink you even deeper in sin.
Power to overcome sin comes from Jesus.
When you realize your sin, quickly repent from it with all your heart and don’t go back there.
The blood of Jesus is what washes away your sins when you repent.
Time passing doesn’t make sin lighter or make it disappear.
Sin that was committed 100 years ago and went unrepented remains as grave and serious as it was back then and will keep hanging over your life till you repent, that’s when it will be washed away!
Only repentance makes your sins to be washed away.
Doing good to earn favour from God without repenting from the sin you committed doesn’t undo your sins.
The solution is to repent as soon as you realize your sin because only the blood of Jesus can wash away your sins.
Don’t feel like you need to wait for time to pass because the time God has given us to repent is right now.
And do not take advantage of God’s grace by continuing to constantly sin and repent.
Don’t make a habit of sinning.
Don’t stay away from Jesus because you have failed to overcome your sin.
When you’re sick you need the doctor even more.
So when you’re stuck in sin you need to come closer to Jesus and ask Him to help you overcome your sin.
Deliberately let go of your sin and don’t leave that space void,start praying and feeding the spirit man instead.
Don’t continue to feed your flesh or you ll never be free from your sins.
Seek Jesus and He will set you free.
Start to pray more and ask Jesus to help you overcome your sin.
Depend on Jesus to have power over sin.
A lie satan tells Christians when they realize that they sinned is he overwhelms them with feelings of condemnation to make them feel unworthy of even praying for forgiveness…
