Let’s PRAY!
“There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death.”
Romans 8:1-2
God our gracious Father, thank You for giving us the security that You do not condemn us if we receive and live for Jesus, Your beloved Son. You have qualified us through Him to live in the Holy Spirit to be free from the lies and schemes of the enemy who always wants to shame and guilt us. But here we receive Your words of truth and embrace the life, liberty and eternal life You have given through Yeshua our Mediator. AMEN
