You are responding to My conviction sooner and realizing that you do not want anything to come between us. The enemy wants to separate us by sin so that you cannot see and hear clearly. He wants you to believe that your sin is greater than My grace. Always remember that nothing can separate you from the love of God which is IN Christ Jesus. You are IN Christ, so when I see you I see the shed blood of My Son. Yes, you still need to confess your sin, but it has already been forgiven. Your response is to receive it and accept the cleansing. This purification will continue daily as you go through the sanctification process.
I give you My Holy Spirit to convict you of sin and righteousness so that you become more and more like Jesus, not to make you feel bad about yourself. I know who you really are. As you realize how the enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy, you will recognize his tactics to bring disunity in My body.
Therefore, be thankful that forgiveness is readily available and free for the asking. Rejoice that you are pronounced clean in My sight. If you do fall, quickly repent and move forward with My never ending grace. It is ALWAYS available and it is ALWAYS free.
John 17:15-19 New International Version (NIV)
15 My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one. 16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of it. 17 Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth. 18 As you sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world. 19 For them I sanctify myself, that they too may be truly sanctified.
1 Thessalonians 5:19-24 New International Version (NIV)
19 Do not quench the Spirit. 20 Do not treat prophecies with contempt 21 but test them all; hold on to what is good, 22 reject every kind of evil. 23 May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24 The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it.
