HE NEVER CONDEMNS

  HE NEVER CONDEMNS John 8:1-11  Devotional:- “She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said to her, "Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more”” (V. 11) NKJV One of the tricks the devil often used against man is to make us feel condemned. To be condemned is a feeling of self-judgment. It is the act of judging oneself to death when God has not. A man with condemnation cannot be bold or courageous. He cannot exercise faith. He cannot take a risk and so cannot find it easy to succeed. The truth is that God does not condemn man. So it is like man to feel condemned, and it is the handiwork of the devil. It was said about Jesus, “for God did not send His son into the world to condemn the world, but that through Him might be saved” (John 3:17).  God has appointed Jesus to judge the earth. But that is not now. Condemnation is a feeling that one has been written off and is not worthy of living anymore. The only people who will face God’s final condemnation are those who refused to...

JUSTIFICATION

JUSTIFICATION

Scripture Reading: Romans 3:21-26
Devotional:- “But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets,” (V. 24)

    To be justified is to be declared just or righteous before God. The word justification is a legal term used for someone that was first suspected, arrested and accused as an offender (Romans 3:23). When the court session and the judge is sited, they will attempt on go deeper into the case of the accused.

After going through all the relevant evidences that the accused person did not commit that said of fence, the judge now declare the accused justified. That he is free and can no longer be accused of committing the crime. Our accuser before God is devil (Revelation 12:7-10). Jesus is our advocate, our lawyer who stood in the gap for us before God (1 John 2:1). It is Jesus that pays His life as a ransom for our life. He took all our accusation to the cross and cancelled them totally by His blood (Colossians 2:14).  He disarms the power accusing us and justified us. (Colossians 2:15).

Now we are justified freely by faith. We have been made to be at peace with God through Jesus (Romans 5:1). We have been adopted into the beloved of God through Christ Jesus (Galatians 4:4-5). This is the reason we have the right to put on the nature and the righteousness of our father through Christ Jesus. Now, we are free before God. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, help me never to be entangled by sin anymore.

“JUSTIFICATION GIVES US FREEDOM FROM THE DEVIL AND FREEDOM TO GOD”
