IT IS BEYOND AMAZING!

God’s love is beyond amazing! His love that afforded our forgiveness is so astounding that it is hard to grasp and assimilate. God longs to bless us with the very life he lives in, the life of complete provision in every way, including being loved, forgiven, and perfectly free! Those who experience this lavish life offered through Jesus Christ are those who tap into heaven’s secret life of prosperity, purpose, and significance. Although once a murderer and adulterer, King David understood something that you and I need to get a firm hold of.

Ps 32:1-2 Blessed is he whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins a covered.  Blessed is the man whose sin the LORD does not count against him and in whose spirit is no deceit.

Psalms 103:8-13 The Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love. He will not always accuse, nor will he harbor his anger forever; he does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities. For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his love for those who fear him; as far as the east is from the west him, so far has he removed our transgressions from us. As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him

Can you put a price tag on the eternal forgiveness of God? Understanding that your soul is your mind, will, and emotions, is there anything worth more than the state of your soul? There have been many, though naturally wealthy, that hated life because of the poverty of their soul. Do you know that the goal of your faith in Christ is the salvation of your soul?

1 Pet 1:8-9 Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, 9 for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls.

The end goal of your faith in Christ is that you would step into the life he lives in. In other words, your thoughts, feelings, and emotions line up with the truth that declares that you are loved, forgiven, and free!

God’s precious love received taps a person into a better life than anything they could have ever dreamed of! When you are fully convinced that all of your sin, mistakes, and failures are paid for, never to be remembered again, you will soar on the wings of God’s very life! How beautiful – how wonderful!

I pray that you are convinced of your extreme value in God’s sight! I pray that you can comprehend that you are everything he has ever wanted! I pray that not one more second of your life will be wasted through thoughts of condemnation– today is your day to truly live! This life of living loved, forgiven, and free is so amazing that words fail to define its fullness! The only way I know how to describe it is to say that…

IT IS BEYOND AMAZING!
