“And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.” ~ 1 Corinthians 6:11
Some people will try to hold on to the past, and they will try to use it to define you. But that was who you were, not who you are now! You are not that person anymore. You are a new creation. So hold your head high, rejoice in the LORD for He is good. No weapon formed against you will prosper. And those words of condemnation…you will be able to refute every one, no one will be able to stand against you if the LORD is your shield.
My Heavenly Father, please restore a sense of pride in Your people who have been trampled down. Confirm Your grace to those who are constantly reminded of their past, and to those who are told lies that they are worthless, let them feel Your love and fill them with self-worth because of Your grace. Bless Your people today, in Jesus’ name I pray, amen.
