HE PAYED THE DEBT!
"When you were dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made you alive together with Him, having forgiven us all our transgressions, having canceled out the certificate of debt consisting of decrees against us, which was hostile to us; and He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross." - Colossians 2:13-14
Is it possible that we
don’t really get the significance of the incredible gift we were given
when Jesus died for our sins? Have we spoken about it so routinely that
we might not absorb its full scope?
It’s as though all of our sins were listed on a writing board. And then Christ came along with a cloth and erased them forever. It’s as though they were never even there. On that board, somebody puts a receipt that says, “PAID IN FULL.” That’s what the nails of the cross did; paid the penalty for our sin in full. Christ has done it all. Our sins have been nailed to the cross; they’ve been taken care of. Nothing more is needed for forgiveness other than our accepting this amazing gift.
Have you done that? Have you claimed the liberating forgiveness of knowing that Christ has paid the full debt of your sins? If you've done that before, stand fast in that liberty made available to you through His blood and don't let the enemy intimidate you, if not, why not let Christ give you a clean slate? After all, He’s already “paid in full.” Our choice is simply to accept His gift in faith.
And if you're struggling with any sinful habits, surrender it to him today, ask Him for help and you shall be made free in Jesus name.
Pray with me; thank you lord for paying all my debts which I could not pay, let my life express the full manifestation of this freedom in Jesus mighty name!
Have a great week ahead in Jesus name!
