The Day of Small Things from Refreshing Hope Ministries on Vimeo. As with many of my messages, this was a word for me, but I will share it with you as I found it encouraging. I have been building a new social media website for Refreshing Hope behind the scenes for months. It is a massive undertak... -
Now after these things, the Lord also appointed seventy others, and sent them two by two ahead of him into every city and place where he was about to come. Then he said to them, "The harvest is indeed plentiful, but the laborers are few. Pray therefore to the Lord of the harvest, that he may send ou...

Let no man say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God," for God can't be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one. But each one is tempted, when he is drawn away by his own lust, and enticed. Then the lust, when it has conceived, bears sin; and the sin, when it is full grown, brings forth dea...

The Sin Problem
-
The next day, he saw Jesus coming to him, and said, 'Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!' John 1:29 WEB
Do you ever feel guilt or shame over something in your past? Is there something haunting you and saying: 'God is mad at you because'' or 'You are not worthy to do this?' That is the enemy trying to immobilize you and to keep you from doing God's will. That is what he does, he accuses us day and night and reminds us of our past (Revelation 12:10).
The enemy cannot stop God from fulfilling His plans for you, but through fear and shame, he can certainly stop you from stepping out in faith to begin with. If you never begin the journey, how can you arrive at the destination? It is a simple but effective plan, and it kept eleven of Jesus' disciples in the boat, while Peter walked on the water (Matthew 14:29).
Your past is behind you, and we cannot change it. When you fall, get back up as quickly as you can and try again. When a past mistake comes to mind, repent of it immediately and ask for forgiveness. When someone that has hurt you comes to mind, forgive them once again. This will take away the enemies ammunition, and it will be one more thing that he cannot use against you.
Jesus dealt with the sin problem once and for all, and no sacrifice that you make will improve on what He has already done for you. He took away the sin of the world, we only have to ask for God to forgive us, and He will. So do not waste another second of your life. Your sin was already paid for, along with everyone else's! We try to live right because He loves us, not to make Him love us.
