What God Does With Forgiven Sin #1 of 2
September 29, 2009
When we're faced with the long-term consequences of our sins, it can be hard to believe that God has really forgiven them. Many who struggle with guilt find it returning to haunt them even after they've sought forgiveness from God. We need to realize that God will help us deal with sin's consequences once we reckon ourselves clean in His sight through Christ.

Living With Your Passions
In a hyper-sexualized culture, sex is either reduced to pleasure-seeking or conflated with our identity. But God designed us as sexual beings for emotional and spiritual intimacy whose highest calling is to worship Him. In this revised edition, Pastor Erwin Lutzer draws on forty years of ministry experience to present a rationale for sexual purity. He gives an honest answer to the sexual pressures we face like extramarital relationships, self-gratification, same-sex attraction, and more. As desire-driven creatures, we don't have to pursue happiness at the expense of character. With our identity grounded in Christ, we can live victoriously with our passions.

Many people carry a paralyzing burden of guilt for past sins. What's worse, they see no way out of their predicaments. These people don't run in the race of life, they plod at best.

When we sin greatly, many of us flee from God, thinking there's no way we can ever get back into the Father's good graces.

When we get weary enough, some of us make the crucial choice to return to the Father, no matter what. Today: the journey home begins.

All around us are people with long-term health issues...issues that seem to have no resolution, short of divine healing. But when these people pray for healing, the answer appears to be an ongoing "no." They hear the verse, "my strength is made perfect in weakness," and wish, sadly, that their answer had been "here's the healing you seek." Are you disappointed with God today?

When Christians find themselves in a time of need, they naturally pray to God to provide. Sometimes the answer is "no..." How we then react is crucial. We must come to understand that even the "no" answers are still answers, and that God is fully aware of our needs and what is best for us. Today: why our faith can grow even when the answer is no.

It's tough taking "no" for an answer. As children, we all felt those "no's," when our parents denied our requests. There are times when the answer to a believer's prayer is a clear "no." We have a choice: these times can either make us resentful, or, they can increase our faith. Today: how to react and respond when God denies a petition we make to Him.

Habakkuk the prophet might as well have been writing in our day. Many of his observations belong on the front page. It's easy to feel trapped with no way out. Evildoers are having a field day and the foundations of the nation are being torn apart. Yet in the midst of turmoil, the prophet has a burst of faith that God is still in charge, just as He is for the USA.

Our nation seems to be heading toward more government control and less freedom. So, what should Christians do? It's not unlike the scenario painted by Habakkuk the prophet: things were bad and getting worse. He was asking God "Where are You?" in all that was happening. Disaster was near, and it seemed God was not concerned. Today: lessons from a prophet on prayer.
