NO PUNISHMENT FOR YOU (The Lord is Not Angry With You!) 

📖TO THE BIBLE  
2 Corinthians 5:19 TLB
“For God was in Christ, restoring the world to himself, no longer counting men’s sins against them but blotting them out. This is the wonderful message he has given us to tell others.”

▶️LET’S TALK
“How can I get God to forgive me?” “What can I do to make God happy with me and love me?” Charles mused as he watched some other students stroll happily to Church. He thought God disliked him for his bad behaviour and self-destructive habits. Thus, he never attempted to get close to any Christian or go where God was mentioned. Thankfully, the day came when he was invited for a Church meeting, where he heard the wonderful truths of God’s love for him, and he finally realised that God had never been angry with him.


Perhaps you’ve been thinking like Charles did or you know someone who does. Well, the Bible says God was in Christ, reconciling the world—the world of sinners— to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them. “Even after all the terrible things I’ve done?” you say. Yes! The trespasses of everyone in the whole world (including yours) were laid on Jesus Christ.

Today, no one should bear any punishment for his or her sins. Jesus already bore it all for them. Often, we unintentionally do or say the wrong things, but God has made provision for our automatic cleansing (1 John 1:7). He gave no conditions for the cleansing; so you never have to worry about unknown sins in your life.

1 John 1:9 says, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” Thus, after you’re born again, if you do something wrong, and confess it to the Father, He’s dependable and can be trusted to forgive you and cleanse you, not only from that sin but from all unrighteousness; isn’t that wonderful? He’s not mad at you! He paid the full penalty for all your sins, both past, present, and future!

▶️ GO DEEPER
John 1:29; Isaiah 53:1-5; 2 Corinthians 5:21

🗣 PRAY 
Dear Father, I thank you for washing away my sins and cleansing me from all unrighteousness, thereby presenting me faultless, holy and unblameable before you in love in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

MONDAY AUGUST 26TH 2024 EXTRICATED FROM DEATH …who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel (2 Timothy 1:10).  PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME  The Bible records that in ancient times, humans lived for exceptionally long periods with lifespans exceeding 900 years. However, as sin increased, lifespans diminished. Genesis 6:3 says because of sin, man's lifespan was limited to 120 years. Moses, in his psalms, made an observation that due to sin, the typical lifespan of man was seventy years or eighty for those who were stronger. Even in old age, man’s life was filled with toil and sorrow, ultimately ending in death (Psalm 90:8-10). The Lord Jesus, however, came to address the root cause of this limitation, which is sin. Through His sacrifice, He provided salvation from sin and made eternal life possible. Eternal life includes “deathlessness.” When you were born again, you passed from death to life (John 5:24). Recall what we read in our them...

PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME  The Gospel of Jesus Christ that we preach is a message that truly works. It’s a message that produces undeniable results for everyone who believes it. It’s the reason you must be quick and bold to share it with others. I remember talking to a man who had a very severe heart condition. The doctors had diagnosed him with heart failure and said he needed a transplant. But as I shared the Gospel with him, I said, “While I’m talking with you, there’ll be a change in your heart. All you have to do is believe what I’m telling you; just believe and give me a few minutes of your attention.” He agreed. So, I kept talking to him, sharing with him the words of life. After about 15 minutes, I said to him, “It’s done.” And he replied, “Yes; it’s done.” The next test conducted on him ...
