Repentance
After listening from Ps Caesar about the blood of the cross so many times. It dawned on me that we have to go to the foot of the cross with true repentance in our hearts!

Guilt and shame is only the realisation of sin. A kid three years of age will also feel guilt and shame when they are reprimanded for their wrongdoing. Pastor too also highlighted the pro-long feeling of gulit and shame are also the evil-doings of the devil.
What devil job is to grasp us by our sins and manipulate us away from God. True repentance comes only when we apply the blood of Jesus upon our sins and let Jesus be the one who receive the affliction for he is the only pure sacrificial that God accepts.
True repentance comes from the liberation from the guilt and shame from our sins.
Romans 8:1-2
"Therefore there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death."
Thus it is clearly stated that there are are no condemnation from Jesus and we have been set-free from the law of sin and John 3:17 once again emphasises on that:
John 3:17
" For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him."
So how do we identify that we are truly repented of our sins???
In a pslams so beautifully written it is states about the forgiveness of sins
Pslam 85:10
"Love and faithfullness meets together; righteouness and peace kiss each other"
It is so clearly stated righteousness and peace kiss each other. When we surrender our sins to Jesus, his blood has washed against our sins to give us a spirit of righteouness. Hence if righteouness and peace kiss each other, when Jesus reinstate our righteousness we will gain peace.
Thus all brothers are we seeking peace from the Lord for the forgiveness of our sins or are we choosing to dwell in the lies of the devil and live in the pains of all the guilt and shame that shackles us down to sins again and again.
My prayer to the spiritual family is that we will have eternal peace with the Lord, seeking to be transparent to Lord our God and not choosing to live in the guilt and shame of sins. Amen!
