STOP BEING SIN CONSCIOUS

STOP BEING SIN CONSCIOUS

“Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the Kingdom of His dear Son; in whom we have redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sins”
Colossians 1:13-14 KJV

 


One of the greatest disasters we suffered as a result of the fall of man and which, unless it is dealt with once and for all, will affect whatever we receive from God is the planting of sin consciousness in us by the devil and if we don’t understand the full import of this, it will affect how we relate with God. We are more sin conscious than being conscious of the good thing God has already made available through the blood. When you talk to an average believer, you can see that they are more sin conscious.


Brother Mike, what do you mean by sin consciousness? To believe more in the power of sin to hinder you than what Jesus Christ did on the cross to completely deliver you from the power of sin. You hear some believers say things like: “The reason I am suffering is because of my sins. The reason this is happening is that God has remembered my sins. He has remembered the things I did in the past. In fact, he has remembered my great-grandfather’s sin.” We get so attached to sin than what Christ did. If the sins you committed or your great-grandfather committed are still haunting you, then Jesus did a poor job of redemption. It means there is no point trying because you are already a failure before even starting. What we are saying inadvertently, is that whatever Jesus did on the cross is not real.


Beloved, there are certain revelations you must have as a believer in Christ. Once the devil succeeds in planting sin consciousness in you, you can never be bold. You will lose your confidence and will always be living in condemnation. You will begin to see yourself as a fake and a hypocrite and that will ultimately affect you. There will be no more confidence in your prayers since you are not sure if God will answer because you have already cancelled the answers yourself before you started. 


Sin consciousness is a trick of the devil because knows that as long as you keep remembering your mistakes and failures, you can never resist him.
