THE WATER FALL OF FORGIVENESS


The Water Fall of Forgiveness

What is sin? Whatsoever is not of faith is sin. If you are confessing your sins all the time, how then can you have courage or faith before God? How can you enjoy liberty as a child of God? You tried it and it is impossible. My doctrine is more “God forgiveness” focus rather than “confessing sins” focus.

How are you sins been forgiven? Not through confessing alone but through the Cross once for all. So don’t build a whole doctrine on one verse. Suppose one day you forget to confess your sins – what would happen? - I John 1:9

But the Word “cleanse” denotes a present and continuous action which means that from the moment you receive Christ, the blood of Jesus keeps on cleansing you. It is as if you are under a water fall of His forgiveness. Even if you fail, this waterfall never stops. It keeps on keeping on, cleansing you from all your sins. God wants you to be Forgiven conscience than sin conscience or guilty conscience.

Boy with Smooth Clean Stone

Let me tell you a story of a boy found a beautiful smooth stone. He played with it. He hid it in the muddy earth every time he wanted to go home. But one day he found a stream and he put the stone under the water fall. Every time he came the stone it was cleansed. (Waterfall of forgiveness) The stone experienced a continual washing and the boy don’t have to wash it every time through his hands. (symbolize our good works and effort)

Now what happen under the old Covenant. Each time you sinned you had to be cleansed. But before you knew it, you would sin again and have to bring your sin offering of either a bullock or lamb to the priest to be cleansed again. There are some believers thinking we are in this old covenant. But let me declare to you that Jesus blood is far greater than the blood of bulls and goats. The blood of Jesus bought us eternal forgiveness. The old covenant could only offer temporal forgiveness and every time you failed.

Jesus however died on the cross once for all. When you were born again you became a living stone and God placed you right under the waterfall of His Son’s blood. Hence, every thought – every feeling that is not right, every action that is not good is washed away. You are always kept clean and forgiven because of the continuous cleansing of Jesus blood. Many of us sang there is power in the Blood! This is the power and revelation. Praise the Lord!

Every morning devotion – Thank you for your precious blood – waterfall of forgiveness. It keeps on keeping on cleansing you from all your sins. Your sin debts has been paid fully and forgiven. Be forgiven conscience now! Thank you and believe it and miracles will begin to happen in your life. You will go out victorious – reigning in life.

The above story was taken from Joseph Prince book “Destined to Reign”
