Have you ever woken up in the morning and said, « Today, I will not sin. »
And as you leave your house, you say, « I must be careful not to fall into sin today. I don’t want to sin. I will not sin! »
When you do this, you are no longer Christ-conscious but sin-conscious, even though you have not sinned yet.
Indeed, you show the devil that you fear him because you recognize that he has power over you.
When you fall into sin, God wants you to be Christ-conscious. This means that when you have missed it, God wants you to be conscious that in Christ, you have forgiveness of sins through His blood. God wants you to be conscious that Christ was wounded and bruised for your sins, and that the chastisement for your peace was upon Him (see Isaiah 53:5).
« In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace. »(Ephesians 1:7)
When you are Christ-conscious, you will have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ (see Romans 5:1).
You will know that you are the righteousness of God in Christ because He who knew no sin was made sin for you (see 2 Corinthians 5:21). He took your sin and now you have His righteousness.
So when you fall, don’t be conscious of your failure and feel bad or condemned. Instead, be conscious of who you are in Christ, pick yourself up, dust yourself off and continue your walk with God!
PRAYER:
Lord our God give us to be always Christ-conscious.
It is in the precious name of your son Jesus Christ that we pray, Amen.
PRAYER:
Lord our God, give us to always tell the devil that he has no power over us.
It is in the precious name of your son Jesus Christ that we pray, Amen.
