Do memories ever hinder your personal growth with Jesus?
Often, memories can prevent us from fulfilling what God has asked of us. We might let them rob us of our peace and even cause division within ourselves.
Not all memories are the same. While some are to be cherished, others need to be covered by the blood of Jesus.
When Jesus shed His blood on the cross, it wasn’t just for our forgiveness today and in the future, but also for our past.
Jesus’ death on the cross addresses our past, and His resurrection speaks to our future.
When we accepted Jesus into our lives, the old self was crucified, and the new self was resurrected. We are no longer judged by our past but are forgiven. So why do we keep digging up old graves? You no longer live there!
As children of God, the Holy Spirit now dwells within us, empowering and transforming us. He reshapes our character.
Let me ask you: Are you still allowing past memories to rob you? Are you dwelling on things that God has chosen to forgive and forget?
It’s time to let go of those past burdens and embrace the fullness of what God has called us to be. Don’t let those memories hold you back any longer!
“For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is His mercy toward those who fear Him; as far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us.” – Psalm 103:11-12
