See Your Failures Through The Cross

then He adds, “Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.” Hebrews 10:17

When I was a young Christian growing up in Nigeria, I read a little tract entitled This Was Your Life. In that tract, it said that when you get to heaven, God will replay your entire life, including all your sins, on a huge video screen for all the angels and other saints to watch!

The idea that God was making such a video of my life with the intention of screening it for everyone to watch used to make me feel awful and condemned before God. How could I ever stand boldly in His presence? And how was I going to face my loved ones and Christian friends in heaven?

I was a nervous wreck, thinking about all my sins that God was recording down, until I read this in the Bible: “Blessed is the man to whom the Lord shall not impute sin.” (Romans 4:8) Hallelujah! I jumped for joy when I found out that God was not counting my sins against me, and that He has given me something called “non-imputation of sins”!

My friend, the reason that God does not impute any of our sins to us is that He has already imputed all of them to the body of His Son Jesus when He hung on the cross 2,000 years ago. Not only that, when God punished His Son for our sins, He caused the curse of the law to fall stroke by stroke upon Jesus’ entire body until every curse had been fully satisfied. That is why we have been redeemed from the curse of the law. (Galatians 3:13) That is why, instead of imputing sin to us, God imputes righteousness!

God wants us to know that our sins and lawless deeds He will remember no more. The words “no more” in the original Greek text carry a strong double-negative meaning. In other words, God is saying, “No way, by no means, will I ever remember your sins again!”

Beloved, since God says that He will remember your sins no more, why do you still remember them or think they will be screened in heaven? God does not want you to be sin-conscious but righteousness-conscious, because knowing you stand righteous in Christ empowers you to reign over sin and reign in life (Romans 5:17; 6:14)!

Confession:
God doesn’t remember my sins no more. I’m no longer a slave to my past. I’m hereby forgiven & loved.

    HALLALUJAH HALLALUJAH HALLALUJAH 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿. Thank you Father my sins you have forgiven me. Pastor Enoch, truly identify with your past fears and concerns, when I think of where I had been and the things I have done. I use to be very frightened. Now I know God will not remember my past sin no more. Thanks be to God for Hebrews 10 v 17- 18.

    God bless you pastor Enoch Alamu 🙏🏾🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🔥🔥🔥🙏🏾❤️

  5. Amen, God imputes righteousness on me. God does not remember my son’s anymore. I am no longer a slave to my past. I al forgiven and lived by God. Every stroke of Christ back took the curse away from the Cross of Calvary. Each stroke went on Christ back until every curse had been fully satisfied. So Today God Imputes righteousness on Me. Thank you Jesus 🔥 Thank you Father, Thank you for the Cross
