For us as Christians, the feeling of being condemned is the root of multiple issues we struggle with. Condemnation is responsible for fear; failure to understand this leads to stress, which brings physical and emotional illnesses and diseases. The only one who can make us enough is Jesus Christ. He’s the one who frees us from the old covenant of the law and enables us to minister the new covenant of grace to others.

In an environment that condemns us and tells us we aren’t good enough, trusting in Jesus completely flips things around for us. To be condemned means to be declared unfit and guilty; judgment and punishment are attached. This creates fear of an impending verdict of guilt being pronounced against us. By contrast, faith in Jesus justifies us even when we sin, make mistakes, and fall short.

The world has enough negativity without us adding to it. As Christians, when we see someone struggling to perform perfectly but missing the mark, we need to encourage them, not condemn them. This encouragement should include ministering the truth to them about their identity as believers who have Christ living in them. . Believing that we’re the righteousness of God changes our behaviour.
On our Christian walk, we’re gradually becoming more and more like Jesus Christ. Despite our progress, however, there’s still a gap between who God says we are and what we see in our everyday lives; although He says we’re the righteousness of God, sometimes we still do unrighteous things. God never contradicts Himself; although our stance in perfection was forever determined when we believed in Jesus, our state of perfection, which refers to our earthly lives, is still unfinished.
Emotional maturity is a key component to a successful Christian life. Being emotionally mature requires flexibility, which allows us to adapt to situations as they arise. Flexibility in God’s eyes involves yielding to Him and doing His will, not ours. A willingness to humble ourselves in this manner allows God to use us to do great things.
In these last days, we will see unprecedented global changes, but not all of them will be good. Persecution will increase as part of Satan’s targeted attack against believers and against God’s church. The enemy will use shame, guilt, and condemnation as weapons; we are to respond by standing in our righteousness and in our identity in Christ.
Knowing God’s will for our lives gives us focus and direction, but we do not find it by accident; we must be intentional and deliberate in discovering this. Making a commitment in our hearts to do this allows Him to begin specifically guiding and directing us; He will never let it be a mystery.
In an environment that regularly rejects and disqualifies people, we can be thankful for God’s unconditional love and acceptance. Despite our flaws and past mistakes, He is always ready to give us another chance.
For the believer, life can seem like a string of constant battles that weigh us down spiritually. When we begin feeling like that, God provides us the opportunity to start over and begin again. He gives us the supernatural ability to win, regardless of what is happening in the natural.

The devil has always been a thief. As believers, we must be on the alert for his attacks; one of the first things he tries to steal that God gave us is who we are in Christ.
