Romans 8:1 Amplified Bible (AMP)
1 THEREFORE, [there is] now no condemnation (no adjudging guilty of wrong) for those who are in Christ Jesus, who live [and] walk not after the dictates of the flesh, but after the dictates of the Spirit.

Condemnation comes in many forms. But the hardest kind is what we put on ourselves. I have seen some people ride themselves into the ground until they have nothing left. They have made themselves useless because they have heaped an impossible mound of guilt upon themselves. They piled the guilt so high they could no longer see the blood of Christ (the one who removes burdens - guilt - and the power to remove burdens).

Notice what this verse has to say about it. You are in Christ (the one who removes burdens and the power to remove burdens). When you are in Christ your guilt has been removed. You are no longer under condemnation. You are under the blood of the one who removes guilt (burdens) and the power to remove guilt (burdens). Imagine that.. you are guilt free.

Now, the devil is going to work on keeping you under the bondage of guilt. The devil is going remind you of all of the bad things you have done. The devil is the accuser of Christians. Do not believe the lies of the Devil. You have a choice on what you are going to think about. Don't think about all things you have done wrong. Think about "there is NOW no condemnation for me. I am in Christ (the one who removes burdens and the power to remove burdens) Jesus.

Speak the Word: Father I am not under condemnation. Father I am under the blood of Jesus. I have been forgiven and all of my sins have been washed away.
