Forgiveness of sin!


Under the old law of Moses, we would have needed to sacrifice a living animal, preferably a lamb, free of blemish to atone for our sins.  I personally would have needed a lamb most every day.

However, the lamb, Jesus, without sin, was sacrificed on a cross to pay for our sins.  So when we accept Jesus as our Redeemer, and when we repent of our sins, our sins are removed from us and are no longer counted to us.

Therefore, as children of the living GOD and knowing Jesus is our Lord and our Saviour, we need to repent each and every time we sin.  Sometimes we sin knowingly.  But sometimes we sin by not doing the things which we can do.  That it is why it is important to pray each and every day for the forgiveness of our sins.

Not only that, we need to forgive those who sin against us.  This should also be done each and every day and indeed, each time we feel wronged.  We immediately should pray for GOD to forgive that person or those persons.

Now during lockdown it is easy to feel wronged.  But let us never forget that we are sinners too.  So let us actively pray all day to our FATHER in Heaven and ask HIM to forgive us and then let us tell our FATHER that we forgive those who sin against us.

Prayer:  Heavenly FATHER, I thank YOU that I live under YOUR immense grace.  Please forgive my sins as I forgive all those who sin against me.  I pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay gratefully GOD blessed today!
