Conviction vs. Condemnation

Abba's working on getting a new blog out from me!! ... But for now, here's another one from another awesome woman of God in my life!!! How cool is God? Let me answer that for you: WAY COOL!


A truth Abba showed me today: Conviction draws us into God's presence while condemnation drives us from God's presence.When we are truly convicted by the Holy Spirit we are then drawn into God's presence with a repentant heart to find forgiveness and cleansing. When the enemy heapd condemnation on us because of religion and legalistic mind sets it makes us feel so unworthy and so inadequate that instead of running to God's grace we run from HIM. This is exactly why the enemy uses condemnation against us, to keep us from God's presence! Religion confuses us so we are unable to tell the difference between conviction and condemnation and so as a means of survival many times people raised in religion/legalism will learn to ignore the condemnation, instead of fighting it with the Sword of God's Word, while at the same time ignoring Holy Spirit conviction. Conviction is our friend! It brings us to our Source of strength and salvation and keeps us from destructuive sin!

"Holy Spirit we need You to teach us the difference between the two!"


Oh hallelujah that we might strive towards God instead of away from Him!
