Build-up Waste Places


Understanding the Problem from God's Point of View:
Rom. 5:17 ; Isa. 58:12 -Being born-again, you are to build-up the waste places and establish God's truths as the new foundation. The garbage of inferiority, insecurity, guilt, shame and condemnation, Jesus took upon Himself on the cross. It is dealt with once and forever. We are freed from all of this, His grace and His gift of righteousness are to predominate in our thoughts and in our actions, the practice and exercise thereof laying the new foundation.

Hope:
Heb. 10:17-19 -You cannot deliver yourself by self-pity, condeming self, by reliving the past. Jesus took care of that by the cross. Your sins were forgiven by His shed Blood. He was made sin with our sin. We became righteous when Jesus rose from the dead, He was raised for our justification. Not on anything you did or could do, all you have to do is accept what Jesus did for you. Through His blood , you are freed from inferiority, insecurity, shame, guilt, and condemnation, freed from your 'past history', Rom. 4:25 .

Rom. 5:15-21 -Grace of God and His gift of righteousness, we are to act and begin to reign in life through righteousness.

Rom. 8:29-39 -God initiated all actions to conform you to image of His Son. Your job is to cooperate and accept these truths and work out these truths in your daily life and activities, being a blessing to others. Nobody can be against you, can place a charge against, cannot condemn you or separate you from the love of God, impossible. Only one who can do that is yourself by failing to act on these truths.

You are a product of the Resurrection. Nothing in this world has ahold on you. You are under the control of the Holy Spirit. Only He Who paid the price, can rule you.

Change:
Heb. 2:9-10 -Jesus tasted death for every man, and by this you were brought into glory. You are the generation of the righteous. You are freed from death, shame, guilt, inferiority. This will not come into play in your lifestyle until you act upon it by your will regardless of your feelings.

Isa. 53:8 -We are the generation of the righteous.

Heb. 12:2 -We are the joy that Jesus saw, and we are the seed from which other generations will come.

Col. 1:21-22 ; Rev. 1:5-6 -You are presented, unblameable, unreprovable, holy, and you, the righteous, are crowned king.

Rom. 1:16-17 . Do not sell out your freedom by returning to thoughts of inferiority, insecurity, shame, guilt by failing to maintain your freedom through right thinking and right doing.
