WILL GOD FORGIVE ME – Inspirational & Motivational Video
God can change even you
God can forgive you of every sin you have ever committed because the Bible says with God all things are possible
Here’s what the Bible says. God will take your sin and throw it into the deepest part of the sea. He’ll take our
Iniquities and cast them into the depths of the ocean and then God promises your sins and iniquities will I remember
No more. Isn’t that good news
God will forgive your sin. He’ll forget your sin
Listen we should not choose to remember what God has chosen to forget. All have sinned and come
Short of the glory of God. I’m a sinner. You’re a sinner we’ve all sinned
We never do
know
the depths of the love of God and the mercy of God and the
Forgiveness of God it’s hard for us to grasp it
The scripture says in numbers 14. The Lord is long-suffering and of great mercy forgiving iniquity and transgression
in second chronicles 30
it says the Lord your God is gracious and merciful and will not turn his face from you if you turn to him if if
You turn to him
Thou Lord are good and ready to forgive and plenteous of mercy unto all them that call upon me
If you call upon him, he will forgive
If you repent he will forgive if you turn to Christ and trust only on the cross and the blood of Christ
he will forgive
And God’s forgiveness goes a lot further than yours in mind we say. Oh, yes, I forgive you
God calls it
Justification just as though you had never sinned you are placed in the sight of God as though you’d never
Committed a single sin and the scripture says he cannot even remember your sins. He erases the tapes
They’re all erased
He can’t remember them
When the thief on the cross who was a murderer and a robber
Prayed to the Lord and said Lord remember me when you come to your kingdom
Jesus said today thou shalt be with me in paradise at that one moment
God for Christ forgave him and took him to paradise with him
He didn’t have time to be baptized. He didn’t have time to do any good works
he had time for nothing except just trust in Christ
And that’s what you need to do. Put your whole trust in him. And that’s what faith means faith means commitment
We commit our lives to him
Ask
For forgiveness
there are so many promises in the Bible about forgiveness first John 1:9 is the most famous one if we admit
If we freely admit that we have sinned
We find God utterly
Reliable notice it does say if we freely admit we’ve sinned we find God utterly
punishing
Utterly mad utterly angry. It doesn’t say that it says when we admit to God we’ve sinned that makes God happy
Not sad. A lot of people. Well, I admit to God God’s gonna be mad at me as if he doesn’t already know
He knows he just wants you to admit that, you know, and you recognize that was wrong
God is more willing to forgive you than you’re willing to admit. You’re not the bribe or bargain or beg God you don’t bribe
And say god if you’ll forgive me then
I’ll do this good work
You don’t bargain. God if you forgive me, I’ll never do it again. God said yeah right
Forgiveness does not change the future
It clears up the past but you don’t beg you don’t need to God once for you. You don’t bargain
I’ll never do it again. You don’t bribe. Well God, I promise I’ll tide 20% No, just just ask
Romans, 3:23 and 24 says this
All of us have sinned
Yet God declares us not guilty
If we trust in Jesus Christ who in his mercy
Freely circle the word freely freely. You’re not to bargain bribe
Beg freely takes away all our sins
Now notice it says if you just trust if we just trust in Jesus Christ, you say Rick, well you don’t know what I’ve done
It doesn’t matter what you’ve done. I don’t need to know what you’ve done. I could tell you this
What matters is what Jesus has done for you
That’s what the cross is all about
We said that when we look at the cross Jesus hangs on the cross. And the first thing he says is
Father forgive them. They don’t know what they’re doing
So the first message of good news
The first word of love from the cross is the word of forgiveness and when you come to God humbly, honestly
admitting
Accepting and asking God says Father forgive them. They don’t know Jesus says father again. They don’t know what they’re doing
He comes his immediate response is
forgiveness
Now you may be saying, you know, I’ve done that Rick I’ve asked God over and over and over to forgive me
But I don’t feel forgiven
Well, let me just say a couple things you don’t have to ask over and over and over and over and over
When you ask over and over and over you’re acting like God didn’t hear you the first time
When you asked over and over and over you’re saying I don’t really believe you forgave me
I don’t really believe you forgave me. So I’m gonna ask again because I haven’t forgiven myself. I’m gonna ask again
That’s false guilt from Satan now let me explain how this works
Before I commit a sin Satan minimizes it it’s no big deal. It’s no big deal. Go ahead and do it. Everybody does it
It’s no big deal. Go ahead and do it. That’s minimizing the moment
I do it Satan changes strategies and he maximize it that is so big
You will never have the blessing of God in your life again
See how he works. It’s the exact opposite before you do it. It’s no big deal, and he just
maximizes it afterwards
If you keep asking over and over that’s a lack of faith. You don’t really believe God forgave you.
So what does Jesus do when we do it his way and ask forgiveness for sin
We ask we we accept and we admit number one. He forgives instantly
instantly
You not to suffer a little while first. He never makes you wait
He doesn’t say I’ll think about it the moment you ask zero delay. Should a believer ever feel guilty for sin
Yeah about 10 seconds. That’s about how long it takes to confess and receive forgiveness from God
The myth is that feeling guilty makes me a better person it does not
Feeling guilty does not make you a better person. God doesn’t want you walking around and guilt just makes you miserable
It’s unnecessary for holiness. Number two. God forgives completely
He forgives
Completely he’s not just quick and merciful to forgive when Jesus died for your sins, which ones did he include on the cross
Every one of them even the ones you haven’t committed yet
Have already been paid for on the cross
He died for all of them. When he said Father forgive them. They don’t know what they’re doing
It included everything you ever have and ever will
do wrong. Jesus was nailed. Jesus nailed himself to a cross. So you can stop nailing yourself
to a cross
Colossians two he is forgiving all your sins circle
All he is utterly wiped out circle that the evidence of broken commandments which always hung over our heads
He is completely circle that completely annulled it by nailing it to the cross. It is a super stain
remover
Completely annulled, what does that mean means as if it never happened
How long do you remember paid bill
You don’t and if God forgives and not only forgives but forgets sin shouldn’t you?
The problem is if you don’t understand complete forgiveness every time something bad happens in your life
You’re gonna think God’s punishing me for what I did
He doesn’t work that way
He doesn’t work that way number three God forgives repeatedly
God forgives repeatedly. Have you ever committed the same sin more than once? Yes
Then do you feel embarrassed to ask for forgiveness again the next time?
Yeah, oh I can’t come back to God on this one. I just confessed it five minutes ago
God does not get bored with your confessions
It is God’s nature to be forgiven Hebrews. 7:25 Christ is always
Interceding on our behalf he forgives repeatedly over and over and over he doesn’t get embarrassed
You don’t need to and number 4. God forgives freely
You don’t earn it. You don’t deserve it. It’s a gift of God’s grace
Because you are human forgiveness is your greatest need and because Christ died for you forgiveness is God’s greatest gift
So let me just say this. Have you been haunted by secret sin?
You can be set free
