‘Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.’
Scripture: Hebrews 10:14-18
In Hebrews 10:14-18 we are told, “For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are
being sanctified. But the Holy Spirit also witnesses to us; for after He had said before, ‘This is
the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord: I will put My laws into
their hearts, and in their minds, I will write them,’ then He adds, ‘Their sins and their lawless
deeds I will remember no more.’ Now where there is remission of these, there is no longer an
offering for sin.” Here is complete forgiveness, the expunging of the record! Here is the second
element of af-es-is. “Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more..” How many
times do we have to repeat this biblical truth before we choose to believe it? The accepting of
forgiveness is the gift that moves us into maturity and confidence. The first three Sonship gifts
chosen, holy and blameless are the initial building blocks in the transformation process! The
Apostle Paul declared the fruit of his identity as a son viewed as two pillars. The first pillar is
threefold, chosen, holy and without blame upon which our Christian identity is established. The
second pillar seals our official family-adopted status. Adoption rests on accepted, redeemed, and
forgiven. God knew what was needed to solidify our standing as sons. Blame, shame, and guilt
could not stand before the truth of God’s redemption, a solid rock, a sure foundation. And here
we see it stated seventeen times as remission, the expunging of the record. Wow! What can we
say? It is in verse 18. Now where there is remission of these, there is no longer an offering for
sin.” These words are God’s provision for a glorious walk. We can pray this over our kids and
grandkids, in Jesus’ name. This is a judgment declaration we can make concerning them in
prayer. ‘Lord we declare that remission has come on them, in Jesus’ name. They are living like it
and acting like it. In Jesus’ name, their hearts are open, prepared and established for You, God to
write Your Word on! They are free, in Jesus’ name!’ That is certainly a judicial prayer
eradicating blame and guilt which carries weight.
Prayer….
We must pray and get rid of certain things that are inflicted by familiar spirits:
Throne-takers; rest robbers and destiny robbers. They stop you from enjoying the
rest of God by getting you to strive and struggle in your own strength, whereas
Jesus said “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest”
(Matt 11:28). For example
- Insecurity. This will make you blind to who you really are: a child of the king,
and heir to all that He has for you.
Praise God for the privilege we must make decrees and declare what we desire
(what heaven wants for us). Banish insecurity in your life and family.
Command every power divining against you, your family, your work, your church
be destroyed in Jesus’ name.
Command that every good thing that the enemy has carted away from you be
restored in a hundred-fold.
Decree for the restoration of all missed opportunities you had.
Make this confession; “Behold, all that are incensed shall be ashamed and
confounded: they shall be as nothing: and they that strive with me shall
perish. I shall seek them, they that war against me shall be as nothing and
as a thing of nought.
