COURAGE TO MOVE ON DESPITE BAD CHOICES
Jer 23:4
I will set up shepherds over them who will FEED them; and they shall FEAR no more, nor be DISMAYED, nor shall they be LACKING,” says the Lord. NKJV
Matt 6:11-12
Give us today our daily bread. 12Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
Debt: That which we owe because of our sins or transgressions.
Jesus asked us to pray for blessings before even confessing our sins. His goodness in our lives is based on His goodness. As we receive His forgiveness, we receive the power to overcome our bad choices and walk in our covenantal blessings.
1. God’s goodness in your life is based on
own goodness
Matt 7:11
If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!

We don’t confess to get forgiveness as we have
been forgiven!
Col 2:13-15
