Girl’s discipleship – Go and sin no more

June 1, 2010 in Blog, Frontpage

This past week I went to MCAN to teach the 3rd session in the series, “Kissed the Girls and Made them Cry.” This was a very intense session as it was on God’s incredible grace, receiving grace, generation curses and how we need to allow God’s grace to move us into obedience. We are living sacrifices for him.

These are not easy principles to accept. It can be easy to talk about, but then when it comes to living these truths out… that can be tricky. Are we not our own worst enemy? Aren’t we usually blocked by our own mind games? We believe the lies that the enemy puts in our head. I’m not really forgiven. I will never be able to change. I don’t have the right to say no. The enemy’s number 1 tactic is to get us into bondage and once we are there making us believe we are not able to escape the captivity. It’s time to replace the lie with the truth.

Romans 6:14 “For sin shall not be your master, because you are not under law, but under grace.

Grace empowers us to walk in God’s unmerited favor. By embracing truth, we’re positioned to ask for His grace (or power) to say “No!” We must be brave enough to believe we can fulfill His command to sin no more.

I encourage you to read the story in John 8:2-12, about a woman who was brought out to be judged and Jesus did not condemn.

I invite you to turn from the lie and embrace His truth: You’re not condemned; you’re forgiven. you’re free to leave behind sin and shame and go, and sin no more.
