Hebrews 8:12
“For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more.”
Most of us have regrets – some of them are shameful,
while others are still painful. Being human means we are not perfect and make
mistakes – and some of those mistakes are bad enough to weigh heavily on our
minds for years.
Today’s verse reminds us that we believe in the God of
Forgiveness. No matter how bad we have been or how wickedly we have sinned, God
is still willing to be merciful and allow us the opportunity to put the past
behind us and begin once more. He also promises to never bring up ever again
those sins and mistakes that we regret and have confessed to Him.
God does this for us because His Son Jesus paid the price
for our sins. This is what it means to be redeemed; this is what happens when
we are saved. So today, receive and embrace this blessing: God knows all our
regrets; He forgives all our mistakes, and
He promises to let go of every one of them forever.
Prayer: Lord
Jesus, thank You for taking upon Yourself the punishment due for our sins. Your
sacrifice allows us to be saved. Your Resurrection permits us to be redeemed.
Thank You for such a wonderful gift and everlasting blessing. In your Holy
Name, we gratefully and humbly pray. Amen.
