DON’T DWELL ON IT

“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.  But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.   To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.”
1 Peter 5:8-10 KJV

It breaks my heart when I remember the times when I was disrespectful to my Mother.  She used to say to me “It doesn’t matter what I say, you’re going to do what you want to do”.  I think there are times when God could say that to us.  It is very important that we do what God wants us to do.

One of the most vicious attacks from satan is when he lies to us and tries his best to discourage us from serving Jesus. When satan attacks you and reminds you of your past and he tells you that God will never forgive you and will never love you, don’t listen to him because the Bible tells us that satan is a liar. 

We read in the Bible.  “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it” (John 8: 44).

If you have confessed your sins, asked God to forgive you and invited Jesus into your heart to be your personal Saviour, you are saved and your sins have been forgiven.  We have a compassionate loving Heavenly Father and He never reminds us of our past.  When He forgives us, we are forgiven.
