Good Morning Mighty Women of God!
I keep a journal of my prayers, questions, scriptures, and anything the Holy Spirit has me to write.
"I can't seem to read my Bible. I feel like I have really messed things up so bad this time. There's not anything good for me. I messed up everything in the Word. All the things I should not do, I did. God surely will not blessed me anymore. I have let Him down for the last time, promises I just did not keep. What's the point in praying, He is not going to listen to me anymore, I've really done it this time."
I wrote that on July 19, 2010. I thought Jesus would no longer use me for His glory. Thought I messed up so bad. I was lead to read (Romans 7:14-20). Let me explain to you what the writer (Paul) is saying here. Paul is reminded that sin will always be in the world, until Jesus comes back for us. You see Paul was once a murderer and tax collector (before he became a disciple of Jesus Christ). This scripture helps to remind me that sin is always going to be in the world. Always waiting for us to mess up, so that we can feel so ashamed and feel that the Lord has turned His back on us. Let me encourage you. "I will never leave nor forsake you", thus saith the Lord. The devil is a liar and deceiver, that's his job. Just like you go to work everyday, so does he. Satan is constantly going to and fro acccusing the saints but we have a High Priest that interceds on our behalf.
The next time you feel that you have MESSED UP so badly, and the devil is speaking into your ears, think about this: We serve a compassionate God, He is our Heavenly Father. There is nothing that you did in the past or will do in the future that will surprised Him. Isn't that awesome! The Lord is omniscient (knows all). He has already made provisions for your mistakes. God knows everything about you, let me correct that the Lord knew everything about you. If He didn't love you, have mercy upon you, you would not have even been born. Satan wants you to believe that there is know hope for you.
The next time satan whispers in your ear, that you are no good, and tries to remind you about your shortcomings, you remind him that Jesus Christ the Messiah defeated him took the keys of hell from him and your sins are all PAID IN FULL. The begin to praise God. Let's us pray!
Father God we thank you for your Word today. Help us to realize when we feel we have messed up so badly, that is the time to pray more fervently. By the power of the Holy Spirit we come against any attack that we may be under, right now. We speak blessings and not curses upon our lives and generations to come. We plead the Blood of Jesus over our marriages, finances and children. You said in your Word that we have the power to speak the Word and it shall come to past. We are believing and trusting in you Jesus for guidance, wisdom and knowledge on today. We thank you Lord Jesus Christ for your blood that was shed for all the sins of the world. We honor, worship and adore you, in Jesus Name Amen.
