“The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; He will save and rejoice over thee with joy; He will rest in His love, He will joy over thee with singing,” Zephaniah 3:17
The Living Bible says: “…He will love you and not accuse you.” And the Amplified Bible declares; “…in His love He will be silent and make no mention of past sins or even recall them.”
Romans 8 has a great verse: “There is therefore no condemnation (i.e. no judging guilty of wrong) for those who are in Christ Jesus.” (V1, Amp. Bible)
Every person born into this world enters with the condemnation of sin in his or her heart. Although often indiscernible, it is there nevertheless. The word of God, given through the Law, makes a person aware of their sinful condition. Paul said, in Romans 7:9: “When the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.” Condemnation cries out for relief. He goes on to say, “O wretched man that I am, who shall deliver me from the body of this death?” He just as quickly answers, “I thank God through Jesus Christ.” Romans 7:24, 25.
In I Corinthians. 5:17 he gives us this assurance: “Therefore if any man be in Christ Jesus, he is a new creation; old things are passed away; behold all things become new.”
Receive Christ as your Savior and He will remove all condemnation and He will rest in His love and you can rest in it too.
