Because I am IN CHRIST...

Because I am IN CHRIST...

I am the daughter of the King of Kings!
I am redeemed by Christ's blood,
I am not a slave to sin anymore.
I am forgiven of all my sins--
my past, present and future sins.
I need not be burdened with guilt and shame anymore.
All these are mine and I know it -- 
because the Holy Spirit is my guarantee.

From hereon I will only listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit
who tells me only what is true.
I will refuse to listen to the voice
of the accuser of brethren-- Satan.
I will not listen to the voice of the world system,
neither to the voice of my sin nature.
You see, I am chosen by the Father, purchased by the Son,
and sealed by the Holy Spirit.

Glory be to God through Jesus Christ my Saviour and Lord!

Ephesians 1:3-14
