God’s Eraser

“Hide Your face from my sins and blot out ALL iniquities.”
(Psalm 51:9)

What God forgives He forgets. There are no remnants with Him of our past, once we accept His Son as our Savior and Lord. God’s Eraser leaves no streaks or blemishes behind. Our sins are totally wiped out as far as the east is from the west! Praise God!

So then where is the problem? Why do we continue to allow Satan and others to cause us to doubt: doubt our salvation; doubt our fellowship with the Lord; doubt our usefulness? What God chooses to forget, He doesn’t keep bringing up, as we humans tend to do! Once we come to understand and trust this truth, we can move on and not keep lingering in the past.

Once forgiven and saved from our sin nature, ALL our sins are forgiven and ALL unrighteous is removed. We are then given the righteousness of God through Jesus Christ, just as Abraham was granted righteousness by His belief in the promises of God. We though, have seen the promises fulfilled in Christ! John, the young disciple whom Jesus loved dearly, kept consistent throughout his ministry, even to his senior years. He constantly preached to believe and live. His constant message was to love one another. Once forgiven, we are mandated to live out our faith: personally!

Though our sins have consequences and we may have forfeited some opportunities to serve in certain areas, no one is cancelled out! There is a place in the Body of Christ fore every believer to serve and it is of vital importance for ALL to serve for the Body to function properly. So get in there and serve! Stop allowing lies to keep you on the sideline. Jesus didn’t go to cross for a few, but for YOU and for ME! It was personal. Let’s show our gratitude through a lifetime of service, not just for a day or a weekend or two!!!

“If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from ALL unrighteousness.” (1John 1:9)
