John 1:29 NLT. The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, "Look! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!
From the above scripture, John reveals to us that, Jesus is the sacrificial lamb who later; at the epitome of his ministry, offered himself to God without any ounce of blemish. Vehemently, Christ is the true Lamb who offered himself for us as an eternal sacrifice: He offered himself once and forever and purged our sins and the conscience thereof! That is why, the Bible boldly tells us that:
''So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus.'' Romans 8:1NLT. Praise God!
From the above standing, it ought to be established in your heart that; Before you got born again, the old you was a sinner, however, when you got born again, that sinner was dealt away with or he passed away or he died and a new you was downloaded in that body. You are now not a sinner saved by Grace!Nooo, and never will you ever be! You are now a brand new creature! It is on that day of confession unto recreation that you personally presented Christ as your lamb, whom God punished in your place hence leaving you to function in the liberties of access.
Since the scripture has clearly stated that; there is now no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus, no body should condemn you in anything. This is because, in your place, God condemned Jesus the sacrificial lamb and then after, by the power of Christ's resurrection, you became a brand new unblamable creature. Understand this too, right now, God does not condemn people. That is why the bible in John:3:17 Amplified Version says that:
''For God did not send the Son into the world in order to judge (to reject, to condemn, to pass sentence on) the world, but that the world might find salvation and be made safe and sound through Him.'' Hallelujah! If He does not condemn the world do you think He will condemn the Church which is His own body? Do you think! He no longer condemns or accuses Christians. Nooo! That is why Psalms 103:8-9 NLT says that: The Lord is compassionate and merciful, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love. He will not constantly accuse us nor remain angry forever.
You see, every time you find yourself accusing other people or you feel you are accused, just know it is the devil at work. For the Bible says in Revelation 12:9-11Amplified Version that; And the huge dragon was cast down and out--that age-old serpent, who is called the Devil and Satan, he who is the seducer (deceiver) of all humanity the world over; he was forced out and down to the earth, and his angels were flung out along with him. Then I heard a strong (loud) voice in heaven, saying, Now it has come--the salvation and the power and the kingdom (the dominion, the reign) of our God, and the power (the sovereignty, the authority) of His Christ (the Messiah); for the accuser of our brethren, he who keeps bringing before our God charges against them day and night, has been cast out! And they have overcome (conquered) him by means of the blood of the Lamb and by the utterance of their testimony, for they did not love and cling to life even when faced with death [holding their lives cheap till they had to die for their witnessing].'' Glory, Glory!
Since devil was cast down, its greatest place of accusation is between you and yourself but not before or by God; God is not in it. One of the platforms the devil uses to accuse you, is the platform of worry. The devil makes young Christians worry about what they will eat, what they will drink, worry about interview results extra extra. But, about worry, Jesus says that:
"This is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life or tomorrow. Weather you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn't life more than food, and your body more than clothing?" Mathews 6:25. Haha..!
Worry is not of faith and can't add anything to your life! Rather, it brings accusation to you: it makes you feel accused or accuse others. Mark this still, it doesn't add anything to your life. That is why Jesus asked a question in Matthew 6:27 NLT "can all your worries add a single moment to your life? Huh! I refuse to work the devil in the worry department, I am not a custodian of worry. I am a custodian of joy and laughter. Haha...glory!
