"Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus."
Devotion for June 27, 2024
One of the most profound and comforting truths in all of Scripture is found in Romans 8:1. This verse declares that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Let’s take a moment to let that sink in: No condemnation. None. Zero.
We all have moments when the weight of our past mistakes and sins tries to drag us down. It’s easy to feel unworthy and burdened by guilt. But Romans 8:1 reminds us that when we accept Jesus as our Savior, we are set free from the penalty of our sins. We are forgiven and made new in Him.
How can we live out this truth daily? First, we must remind ourselves of our identity in Christ. We are not defined by our past mistakes but by God's grace and love. Start your day by speaking this truth over yourself, "I am in Christ, and there is no condemnation for me."
Secondly, forgive yourself. If God, in His infinite mercy, has forgiven you, then you must also forgive yourself. Holding on to guilt and shame only hinders your walk with God. Release it to Him and embrace the freedom He offers.
Lastly, extend grace to others. Just as we have been forgiven, we are called to forgive those around us. Let the freedom you have received in Christ overflow into your relationships, reflecting His love and mercy.
Remember, our walk with Jesus is a journey. Some days will be easier than others, but the promise of no condemnation is steadfast and unchanging. Let this truth encourage and inspire you to live boldly and confidently in His love.

Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude for the incredible gift of grace and forgiveness through Your Son, Jesus. Thank You for the truth that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ. Help us to live in the freedom this promise brings, shedding the burdens of guilt and shame.
Lord, remind us daily of our identity in You. Give us the strength to forgive ourselves as You have forgiven us. Open our hearts to extend the same grace and mercy to others that we have received from You.
Holy Spirit, guide us in our walk with Jesus. When we stumble, lift us up and remind us of Your unwavering love and grace. May we live each day boldly, reflecting Your love to the world around us.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
