1 John 3:21, 22 Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God. and receive from Him anything we ask, because we obey His commands and do what pleases Him.
Part 1 of condemnation affects confidence, we stated we must release the guilt and condemnation for the sins we’ve committed in the past.
Part 2 will mention how our condemnation can affect the blessings God attempts to give us.
When we feel down and condemned about the sin we’ve committed, we feel unworthy to ask or receive anything from God. We feel our sin was too great to be forgiven by The Almighty, Holy God. Therefore, we miss out on the spouse we desire, the career we desire, the increase we desire, all because of our sense of unworthiness.
Once again, this unworthy feeling is not from God but, from Satan.
Let the past go by confessing the sin(s) to God. After confessing, on purpose, make an effort to live life as if nothing was wrong. If God can forget our sin, we should too.
Don’t let the past hold you hostage. If it can hold you hostage it will hold your blessings hostage.
