“There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.” Romans 8:1
There is no condemnation – Thank you Jesus!
Because you have been set free from sin and are now a child of God, you are no longer condemned. God does not condemn you. He loves you and will all He can to help us grow as we grow into Christ-likeness. And no matter what others may tell you, there is nothing you could do or say that would stop God from loving you. Many times, we condemn ourselves. If we stumble in our walk or we make a mistake, we beat ourselves up.
Do you think God looks down on us and thinks we’re a lost cause and wondering why He would even bother trying to make us into His likeness? No! That’s a lie from the devil. He sees the treasure you are and have inside of you. He loves you, and as He thinks of you often (isn’t that a great thought?) and He watches over you…and He smiles. He doesn’t get angry at you if you happen to stumble, but He lovingly helps you up, dusts you off and gives you the strength and confidence to carry on – God never gives up on you. So neither should you!
