Forgiving Ourselves. Day 4 - The Truth & No Doubt (Original)

Good Morning Friday.......
Father Thank You for this NEW Day. Please grant us TRUTH, WISDOM, DISCERNMENT, UNDERSTANDING, and KNOWLEDGE. Father we ask this so that we will not be conformed to this world, but TRANSFORMED by the renewing of our MINDS. In YESHUA, JESUS CHRIST'S Name. Amen.

• Forgiving Ourselves. Day 4 - The Truth & No Doubt

The last few days we have been searching God's Word seeking to find release from a continual or reoccurring self-condemnation. In day one we began with The Word and the forgiveness that Yeshua, Jesus Our Savior, Has Provided. Next, in day two, we took a look at "The Prodigal Son" parable to get a picture of how Our Father feels about us when we return, no matter how we feel. In day three we had prayer and went to God's Word to find the importance of understanding as this is key in ALL types of forgiveness. Today, in day four, we will conclude with The Truth and why we should have No Doubt about our place of The Kingdom of Our Father.

First things first. We can conclude and wrap-up the entire first three days with one verse... possibly the most Powerful, Loving, Merciful, Kind, Compassionate, and most memorized verses in the entirety of Our Father's Book, God's Infallible Word. You have certainly read, heard, and spoken John 3:16, but today take a moment to pause and really think about what verses 16-18 are saying. Think about The Power of Our Father Making a sacrifice like this. Think about having to give your son, mom, brother, sister, or another member of your family over to death to save...anyone. This Is The Love Of Our Father! Let's take a look:

“For God So Loved The World That HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, that WHOEVER BELIEVES in Him should not perish but have EVERLASTING LIFE. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. “HE WHO BELIEVES IN HIM IS NOT CONDEMNED; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”
‭‭John‬ ‭3:16-18

Did you catch that? HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON...WHOEVER BELIEVES HAS EVERLASTING LIFE...HE WHO BELIEVES IN HIM IS NOT CONDEMNED. There you have it. If God Almighty, Our Father In Heaven has decided that you are worthy to receive forgiveness...you are worthy. And how do you become worthy? ...BELIEVE!

Right now whatever struggle, disappointment, or self loathing thought you are stuck in is not from God. Our Father leaves No Doubt that ALL MEN have the opportunity to be forgiven. The fact that you feel ashamed, guilty, unworthy, or unforgivable, whether you know it yet or not, is a good thing! This means that you have a repentant spirit, you have been convicted about whatever it is you have done, and besides BELIEF, repentance is the next step closer to Our Father and His Son, Our Savior Yeshua.

Our "worldly" thinking tells us that we can only be forgiven for so much in our past. Godly Thinking tells us that God Is All Powerful, He Loves Us, and He Never Breaks A Promise. The enemy will always try to convince you that you "haven't done enough" or that "you can never be forgiven," but we know... the enemy is a liar and the father of all lies. If he can convince you that you aren't worthy, he has you right where he wants you because that is doubt and not BELIEF. Don't buy in to the enemies lies. The enemy will leave you bankrupt of joy at any cost, God Our Father Will Lift You And Exalt You In Due Time If Only You Turn To Him.

Hope. One of the 3 tenants of The Children of God. God Has Left Us No Reason To Be Short Of Hope In His Word Or His Creation. Once we "Understand" that Our Father Is Kind And Merciful To Forgive, no matter the transgression we have committed, we can once again have Hope. Along with Faith and Love, Hope is essential to getting through this Life and into God's Kingdom. Don't foster fear, foster courage. Live boldly. And BELIEVE. Think about the Glory of God that is shown when people will see you, know that you are changed, and you attribute the change to Our Savior and Our Almighty Father.

Here are the facts:

1.) God Loves You
2.) God Loves You So Much That He Let His Only Son Be Slaughtered For You Like An Animal
3.) God Explicitly Tells You That You Can Be Forgiven For Your Sin
4.) You Must Believe In The Truth, Yeshua, Jesus Christ
5.) Fear of unforgiveness is doubt
6.) If Our Father Forgives You, You Are Forgiven
7.) Yeshua, Jesus Christ Died For YOU
8.) God Keeps No List Of Wrongs
9.) Everything In The Bible Is Truth. History, Geology, Archeology, and Thousands of Witnesses Confirm This Truth.
10.) No One Can Undo What God Has Done

Why do you think that God Has His Son Say Things Like: "Take Courage, Son, Your Sins Are Forgive (Matthew 9:2)?" Our Father and His Son Were Thinking About Our Deepest Problem...Sin. God Almighty Was Telling Us That Our Deepest Fear, the fear of failing Him, can be "cast out" because His Love Casts Out Fear! 1 John 3:20 says:

“that if our heart condemns us, that God is greater than our heart and knows all things.”
‭‭1 John‬ ‭3:20‬ ‭

If we don't accept God's Forgiveness, we are doomed to ungodly fear. Only God and His Son Can Remove That Fear. If you haven't accepted The Forgiveness Of Christ, do so. It only takes a simple prayer. We need only Turn To Him. If we but search out His Word, Turn To Him In Prayer And Submission, and Believe, we will know THE TRUTH. Once we know THE TRUTH we will have NO DOUBT that we can be forgiven and Live Life filled with The Joy, Peace, Love, Mercy, and Faith of Our Messiah Yeshua, Jesus Christ The King.

A Prayer For Anyone Harboring UnForgiveness For Themselves :

Dear Father God, I need forgiveness. I admit that I have sinned against you and turned from you. Please forgive me. I place my soul in Your Mighty Hands for deliverance and place my trust in You. Please show me THE TRUTH and help me to have NO DOUBT. I ask this in Yeshua, Jesus Christ's Name. Amen.

Having received God's Forgiveness... LIVE FORGIVEN. Believe, Repent, and Obey! Want to hear an amazing Truth Of God Almighty? When Our Savior Yeshua, Jesus Christ Sets You Free... YOU ARE FREE INDEED!!!

May we all pray for one another. May we all pray for each Brother and Sister who may be feeling the attacks of the enemy and has doubt of the Fullness of Life That Our Father Provides In His Salvation, Truth, and Word, Yeshua, Jesus Christ. God Bless Each And Every One of You On The Other Side Of This Screen. Please know... my deepest and sincerest prayers are with you all.
