Satan's Biggest Tool

Good Morning! The last part of Isaiah 38:17 says, You have put all my sins behind your back. Today I want to share with you one of Satan's biggest tools that hinders us not only in Recovery, but also in our Christian walk as well. And that is Guilt! Here's a little story about me. In 2003 after being clean & sober for 2 1/2 yrs I started using again. I had been going to AA and all that good stuff, but got to busy with my job and other things that I got to busy to worry about my program and staying clean. But this is the thing that kept me out there for another 2yrs and got me in all kinds of trouble, and that was GUILT! You see Satan told me that I had messed up, so AA wouldn't want me anymore. And seeings how I messed up, I might as well mess up real good. And that is the problem with a lot of us today, we believe those lies. We all make mistakes in life. Look at all the people in the Bible. Every one of them messed up and sinned in some way or another. But God forgave them. And that is what we have to remember, that our Guilt, our Sins were paid for by the Blood of the Lamb, Jesus Christ! God puts our sins behind his back, He sees them no more. So today if satan is pounding you with the hammer of guilt. Remember who held the nails. In his hands and feet so we don't have to feel the guilt. And if we are feeling guilty about something. Chances are it is something we need to address. See what it is, ask for forgiveness, repent and move forward. Satan wants to keep you away from the forgiveness of God with his hammer of Guilt. But remember he already hammered the nails once into Jesus. So he can No Longer hammer the nails of Guilt in us. Always remember, God loves you and will forgive you for anything you have done! HABD!
