WASHED AND CLEAN

‘How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?’ – Hebrews 9 vs 14

Hello Dearly Beloved, it is a great joy to me bringing you the word of the LORD. Now at this time, the Spirit of the LORD has stirred in me to put this truth in your remembrance for a successful and victorious life over sin and addictions.

In my previous teaching titled FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT IN PERSPECTIVE, I talked about this which I am about to share with you. Writing the same things again to you is indeed for your good just as the Apostle Paul said in Philippians 3 vs 1. God Bless You.

Now looking at our opening scripture in The Message Bible, we see;

‘If that animal blood and the other rituals of purification were effective in cleaning up certain matters of our religion and behavior, think how much more the blood of Christ cleans up our whole lives, inside and out.’

Waow! It says how much more the Blood of Christ cleans up our whole lives, inside and out. God wants you to know that you have been cleanst by reason of the Blood of Jesus. This is the knowledge and Revelation that will stop the flow of sin and addictions in any Believers life.

The problem is that too many are looking at their works, their performance instead of looking at Christ, HIS Performance. You may be currently struggling with malice, envy, bitterness, easily angered, fornication, masturbation, sexual lusts, adultery, smoking, drunkenness or some sort of addictions, and you keep trying to change, making new resolutions every single year all to no avail. O yes! Why trying to change into what you are? – Selah

Every Christian must come to a resolute end having this agreement that we walk by FAITH and not by sight. {2 Corinthians 5 vs 7, Romans 1 vs 17}. What is FAITH? Confidence and Assurance in what is written! What is sight? Confidence and Assurance in what is seen! Beloved, God wants you to know and accept this. You are obviously in the weakness of malice, but God’s word says you are clean inside out! You are obviously in the weakness of masturbation, but God’s word says you are clean inside out! You are obviously in the weakness of lies, but God’s word says you are clean inside out! You are obviously in the weakness of sexual lusts, but God’s word says you are clean inside out! Your addictions are obvious before you and before men, but the WORD says you are washed and clean.Your weaknesses appear daily before your eyes, but God’s word says you are free, washed, clean inside out. Glory to God. What is it then? Refuse to identify yourself by what you see in yourself, but by what the WORD has revealed about you. The devil may say; you fellow full of lies! Don’t accept that, say ‘I am full of Truth’. You did not tell a lie, you agreed with the WORD. – Selah. The devil may say; you fellow full of sexual lusts! Don’t accept that, say ‘I am full of Godly thoughts and there is no lust in me. – Selah. By continually doing that, agreeing with the WORD by the confessions of your mouth, your spirit man is changing, conforming to the image which is the WORD which you are in agreement with. – Selah

‘But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.’ – 2 Corinthians 3 vs 18 {KJV}

That’s it! Take note of the underlined words in that scripture;

1-      Beholding

2-      Are changed into the same image

3-      From glory to glory

As you keep beholding this TRUTH, recognizing them, believing them, confessing them, you begin to change into your confessions unknowing to you. Then you sooner find out that you hardly tell a lie save a few times. You find out that the masturbation that was daily has become weekly, yet you are still acknowledging the WORD in your life and continually refusing what your weakness says you are, but accepting and confessing what the WORD says about you, clean inside out! Maybe you were a cigarette addict, you find out that your urge for the cigarette is gradually dieing. As you continue in the FAITH, somehow, you will find out that the urge and zeal for these things, lies, illegal sex, and whatsoever it may be has died! Glory to God, your life has finally conformed to the image of the WORD. You see that? So calling your life what the WORD calls it, makes it becomes so.

Walking by Faith (recognizing the WORD as SURE and TRUTH over circumstances) is the life we have been called into. Faith has always been the victory. {1 John 5 vs 4}. – Selah

God Bless You.
