Living without shame

Living without shame

For the scripture says, “whosoever believes on Him will not be put to shame”

Rome 10:11 (KJV)

When you are in Christ your life is in Christ. Life in Christ is a life free from shame, guilt, sin consciousness and condemnation. Adam in the garden never felt shame because he was clothed with God's glory. And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed. Genesis 2:25. (KJV) When you are cloth with His glory you can’t be ashamed. How can you get shame? Felt someone condemning you. When you are in Christ, there is no shame before God. When God created man there was no shame. Man did not know what it meant to be ashamed. There was no hiding before God or one another. They could walk in intimacy with God.

One day they fell into sin and hid themselves from God because they were ashamed. Genesis3:8; they heard the sound of the Lord walking in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord among the trees of the garden. Many times we think we can hide from God because of the lies of the enemy that God is not seeing. Man's greatest problem today in the world is guilt. Guilt destroys Spiritual, physical and mental health. In Christ we are all covered, forgiven forever. In Christ your shame and guilt is removed forever. In Christ your dignity is restored. Jesus righteousness was given to us as a free gift through grace. Now we enjoy the abundance of the gift of righteousness we can boldly come before His throne. When you are in Christ Jesus you can boldly come into the presence of God, this consciousness is what make us come boldly before God without shame.

No Shame before Man. Joel 2-6-27, you shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your God; who has dealt wondrously with you; and my people shall never be put to shame. Then you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel; and I am the Lord your God and there is no other. My people shall never again be put to shame. In Christ you need to be transparent before man. Your relationships are free; you are totally transparent and free to be yourself. You don’t live for yourself, or others opinions, you know who you are in Christ because of what He has done for you.

No shame before the devil. Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, “ now salvation and strength and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ has come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. “ And they overcome him by the blood of the lamb and by their word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to death. Revelation12:10-11. (KJV) The devil is an accuser of the brethren. He is always there to accuse you of your sins but all your sins were nail to the cross and was washed by the blood of Jesus, so no shame before the devil for this is our testimony.

No shame before yourself. You need no to be ashamed of yourself or your past failures. You are declared righteous forever. In Christ never again should you be ashamed. Instead of shame you have double honor. Ephesians 1:5 Having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to himself, according to his good pleasure of his will

Never again should you be ashamed before God; never again should you be ashamed before man; never again should you be ashamed before the devil; and never again should you be ashamed of yourself. You are in Christ Jesus! Hallelujah!! God bless you.

Daily Confession

The Word of God is working in me, producing what it talks about and propelling me from one level of greatness to another. Through the Word, I'm moving from glory to glory and making progress in every area of my life. My profiting is appearing to all, and I'm manifesting the virtues of the divine life as the Word of God pilots me in the upward-and-forward direction. Never again we I live in shame and condemnation in Jesus' Name. Amen.

Memory verse;

Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. Hebrews 4:16.
