The Father in Heaven through His Son, gave us the righteousness of His Son; so that I will not struggle with my own works to be accepted in God.
-
By grace and faith, I receive and embrace the righteousness of Jesus Christ who became sin for me,
-
and I'm accepted before Him without forcing my own works to validate me.
-
We do not sing here for God to accept us; we do not pray here so that God would accept us; we do not serve here so that God may accept us.
-
Because God accepted us in Christ Jesus through repentance and clothed us in Christ and His holiness, that's why we sing unto Him,
-
that's why we pray to Him and believe that when we call on His name, things begin to change.

Apostle Paul says, "You are rich in Christ!"
-
" I'm rich in Christ!"
-
Paul continues and says, "You are reedemed and washed of your past!"
-
And if you keep on reminding yourself over your past, let me tell you that you do not trully believe in the blood of the Lamb!
-
In the book of Hebrews 10, the author of this Book comes and declares, quoting the prophet Jeremiah,
-
"Days are coming says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with Israel and the gentiles!"
-
What covenant Jeremiah?
-
"I will make a covenant by which, through one sacrifice I will perfect, cleanse, and sanctify those who will accept and receive My Son!"
-
Afterward, the writer adds, " And I will not remember anymore their sins!"
-
If you continue today to live in the poverty of your past, let me tell you that you are not aware of the inheritance that you have today in Christ Jesus!
-
You continue to live in your past, thinking about what was negative there; guilt, blaming yourself or others, condemnation and so forth...
-
If you truly belong to Christ, God does not remember your past!
-
He cast all your sins into the sea of forgetfulness and washed them completely!
-
If you keep swimming in that sea, it means that you permit your mind and thoughts to be deceived by satan and take you there.
-
You are rich in Christ Jesus because you are redeemed; you are rich because you are made righteous.
-
You are rich, because you washed of your negative past!
