Heb 10:22,23 We have been sprinkled with His blood to free us from a guilty conscience, and our bodies have been washed with clean water. So we must continue to come to Him with a sincere heart and strong faith. We must continue to hold firmly to our declaration of faith. The One who made the promise is Faithful.

One of the greatest struggles of the Christian life is to live free from a guilty conscience. The scripture says that by the blood of Jesus we are free from a guilty conscience; we can continue to come to Him with a sincere heart and strong faith or conviction. The declaration of our faith and the promise from our Faithful God is that we stand before Him blameless, righteous and free. Just as if we had never sinned. Whatever you may be going through at this moment, God is not judging or punishing you for sin, He punished Jesus for your sin! When I am conscious of my righteousness and not of sin it gives me confidence to approach God with a strong conviction of His finished work on the cross and His unfailing love. Declare it, say it, murmur it...I am righteous!
