WHAT IT MEANS TO BE FORGIVEN

11/21/24 WHAT IT MEANS TO BE FORGIVEN

I saw a pencil eraser erasing and the eraser bits left on a table. That touched my heart for I had studied Psalm 25 before going to bed.

Psalm 25:1-22 Unto you, O LORD, do I lift up my soul. 2 O my God, I trust in you: let me not be ashamed, let not my enemies triumph over me. 3 Yea, let none that wait on you be ashamed: let them be ashamed who transgress without cause. 4 Show me your ways, O LORD; teach me your paths. 5 Lead me in your truth, and teach me: for you are the God of my salvation; on you do I wait all the day. 6 Remember, O LORD, your tender mercies and your lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old. 7 Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to your mercy remember me for your goodness’ sake, O LORD. 8 Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way. 9 The meek will he guide in justice: and the meek will he teach his way. 10 All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies. 11 For your name’s sake, O LORD, pardon my iniquity; for it is great. 12 What man is he that fears the LORD? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose. 13 His soul shall dwell at ease; and his descendants shall inherit the earth. 14 The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will show them his covenant. 15 My eyes are ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net. 16 Turn you unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted. 17 The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring me out of my distresses. 18 Look upon my affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins. 19 Consider my enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred. 20 O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in you. 21 Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on you. 22 Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.

SUMMARY

Thank You forgiving me of all my sins. Deliver me of shame and slime from my enemies. I will wait upon You to show me, teach me, and lead me. Thank You for Your kindness and mercy.

When I fear You oh Lord, I will be:

  • Taught of Your will and Your way.
  • Prosperous
  • Have intimacy with You and know Your promises.
  • See Your promises.

WORD TO PONDER; I WILL PRESENT YOU TO MY FATHER 11/15/15

My beloved Bride, how I love you! I gladly forgive you as you ask of Me. Yes I understand the frailties of humanity and understand the gravity of evil demise that you resist on a daily basis. In spite of yourself and what surrounds you, you are doing all you can to seek Me and please Me and it moves My heart to see your efforts!  I wash you daily with My Word every time you ask. I delete every forgiven offense off your book in heaven. Those places are blank dear one, never forget how I see you! I see you only with My eyes of love.

How I long to present you before My Father in heaven. I stand right beside you and present you without fault. What JOY I have over you My beloved overcomer! My heart leaps with great gladness to think of you. As you stand there with Me, I hold you up as My chaste virgin, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing. My holy bride, without blame; the one whom I have longed for even from before time began. Yes dear one, this is you.

Jude 24-25 Now unto him who is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, 25 To the only wise God our Savior, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen.
