Years ago we realized
that we had too many credit cards and decided to cut them all up and pay them
off. We made deals with each company and
they gave us amounts to pay in order to never hear from them again. It was
great! Over the years it has saved us a boatload of money.
Until last year, when
we received a note in the mail that we still owed a credit card company and
they were making us pay. I took the bill
to our lawyer who contacted them. He made arrangements for us to pay them off
through him and we won’t hear from them again this time.
Who wants to hear
from old debtors you thought you had paid off? Our credit scores are good and
we could buy a boatload of stuff but we choose to be careful about what we go
into debt for. Because of that one time we just don’t like credit cards.
Although credit card
companies may try to make you pay again, there is one Creditor who never makes
you pay, ever. Jesus paid our debts in full and when He did this our debts went
into the Sea of Forgetfulness, as far as the East is from the West. They were
shredded beneath the cross and you can always know that if you hear from them
it’s not coming from the Throne room of Grace!
Have you been
wrangling with your past problems? Are you wondering why they keep returning in
the middle of the night? Is the accuser of the brethren hassling you? Maybe you
can’t go back and make things up, but Christ in His Mercy has a better plan for
you. Maybe someone has withheld
forgiveness from you and your peace is disturbed! Call out to Jesus! For He
says cancelled by the Blood of the Lamb and He says Sealed at the Cross and
rolled away with the Stone! You may not be where you want to be, but with Jesus
you are more than a conqueror, forgiven completely and seated in Heavenly
places with the Lord.
Oh beloved! Today is
your day to remind the enemy of your soul that you are debt free! Run to God’s
Book of Records and see – if you have given your heart to the Lord and you are
living as a child of the King, then no accusations brought against you can
stand in God’s court! Rejoice that you are loved so mercifully and that you are
cared for with all of His Promises written just for you!
Psalm 62:7 My victory
and honor come from God alone. He is my refuge, a rock where no enemy can reach
me.
Galatians 3:13 But
Christ has rescued us from the curse pronounced by the law. When He was hung on
the cross, He took upon himself the curse for our wrongdoing. For it is written
in the Scriptures, “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”
Colossians 2:14 He
canceled the record of the charges against us and took it away by nailing it to
the cross.
Isaiah 43:25 I--yes,
I alone--will blot out your sins for My own sake and will never think of them
again.
