Righteous & No Condemnation

Condemnation is not from the enemy. Neither is it from God. 

It is from our heart (1 John 3:20). Only accusation is from the enemy. He accuses you so that your heart condemns you.

Accusation -> Condemnation -> Fear -> Stress

But because Jesus died on our behalf and rose again (Romans 8:34) to prove that He fully paid off all our sins, we are free from any condemnation (Romans 8:1) of our heart, because we are made righteous and thus, free from all accusations from the enemy. There is no more guilt and shame left.

Righteous -> No Accusation -> No Condemnation -> Faith (Confidence) -> Rest

1 John 3:21-22 - Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence toward God. And whatever we ask we receive from Him...

Righteousness, therefore, is the foundation to receive all that God has blessed us with.

Each time when the enemy tries to accuse you, say “Thank you for reminding me that I am righteous.” (Romans 8:33)

Each time when your heart feels like condemning you, say “Thank you for reminding me that Jesus died and paid for that. Phew!”

Apparently, it is not just the Holy Spirit who reminds you all things. The enemy also helps to remind you how righteous you are. 谢谢你啊！
