Forgiveness of sin

Today Pastor Prince shared the power of knowing the eternal forgiveness of sin through Christ. When Jesus absorbed all our sin on the cross, God makes us righteous through Jesus' finished work.

Since Romans 5:17 stated clearly that righteousness is a gift hence it's not through our work . Thank God that righteousness is a gift that God freely gave us, we don't have to work to maintain it. I bet that if we have to maintain it , we sure fail terribly.

Pastor also shared the meaning of forgiveness, which is
a) Release from bondage or imprisonment.
b) Forgiveness or pardon of sins (letting them go as if they had never been committed)
c) Remission of the penalty.

Hallelujah! It might sound easy, yes indeed it is easy because Jesus make easy for us. "]

And if God wants to keep track of all our sin, who would be able to stand before Him. (Psalm 130:3) Basically no one, so God has to sent Jesus to die for our sin in order to allow us to have the right standing in front of Him. We are BLESSED in His perfect work, hallelujah!

Pastor shared that many problem in our lives is causes by not knowing that we have been forgiven. For example guilt, condemnation which beget sicknesses in our bodies.

It's the forgiveness of sin allow us to have liberty/freedom to set us free. Praise the Lord.

Heavenly Abba, i proclaim that i have the freedom/liberty through the forgiveness of sin.To know that i'm completely forgive is to set myself free and to allow blessing to flow into my life. Abba i hereby restore all my health and wealth through the proclamation which you have sent away all my sicknesses, bondage and poverty on the cross.

Amen.
