NOT Guilty

Revelations 12, 10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: "Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down. 11 They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death. (NIV)

A couple of months ago I was in the presence of the Lord and it was so awesome! I came to the throne of the father and it was just so magnificent and glorious! Wow, standing in the presence of God Almighty! Praise God, I felt like only shouting Holy Holy Holy, so awesome was His presence! But then suddenly I looked around and saw Satan standing there as well. And he was throwing accusations at me. I was shocked and thought: Why on earth is Satan allowed to be before the throne of God? But immediately I was reminded of that passage in Job where Satan came before God as well and stood among the Sons of God at that time.

But while Satan was accusing me and throwing all he had at me, the Lord Jesus rose up and proclaimed boldly and with much authority:

Not Guilty!

Every time Satan would throw something at me the Lord said it again:

NOT GUILTY!

Wow, it was so awesome to realize afresh that Jesus really had paid the price and through the sacrifice he made on Calvary, giving his own life for us, for me, he has received the authority to defend us before God and say:

NOT Guilty!

That is so amazing and just such a testimony. Satan has been hurled down and his accusations don’t work against us anylonger! For Jesus has overcome death and all guilt through his death on the cross! It is DONE.

So let us keep speaking blessing instead of being on the side of the accuser! We are called to speak forth life and not death! We are called to stand and overcome by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of our testimony!

It does not matter what Satan is throwing at you or what others are trying to accuse you with! In Jesus Christ you are forgiven and you are not guilty anymore! It is done and you are not under condemnation anylonger. Consider this passage:

Colossians 2, 13 When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, 14 having canceled the written code, with its regulations, that was against us and that stood opposed to us; he took it away, nailing it to the cross. 15 And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross. (NIV)

God has taken away through Jesus Christ what was directed against us. Yes, we are guilty under the law, but Jesus has forgiven us and stands there daily defending us before the devil and saying:

NOT GUILTY!

So keep on walking forward soldier of God. Do not let anybody put you down. For you are forgiven and you can walk by His grace alone! And don’t you dare accuse other Brothers and Sisters! For as God has forgiven you, it is necessary to forgive others and let them walk the walk and enter into all the blessings God has for them!
