He has cancelled your sin debt... if you are a child of God. Meditating on God's forgiveness can be a very beneficial reminder of how much God loves you and I. If you are a child of God, He has cancelled your sin debt. Jesus Christ took on your sins while on the cross! Meditate on these verses:
Colossians 2:13-14 says, "When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, having canceled the written code, with its regulations, that was against us and that stood opposed to us; he took it away, nailing it to the cross."
1 John 1:9 assures us, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness."
Psalm 51:1 gives a prayer of forgiveness, "Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions."
Hebrews 10:17 states the extent of God's forgiveness: "Their sins and lawless acts I will remember no more."
Daniel 9:9 says, "The Lord our God is merciful and forgiving, even though we have rebelled against him."
Colossians 1:13-14 says that forgiveness comes through Jesus Christ: "For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins."
Psalm 103:12 is one of the most encouraging verses regarding God's forgiveness: "As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us." Thank you Father God for loving me and all who read this and forigiving us all for our sins and transgressions and debts and remembering them no more as they are washed in the blood of Jesus. Thank your for rescuing us all from the dominion of darkness and bringing us into your KINGDOM. Thank you God for making me hunger and thirst for the TRUTH that I find more and more each day to give me and all who read this the Blessed Assurance we need of your AMAZING GRACE. WE LOVE YOU. AMEN

16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts unto God.
17 And whatsoever ye do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
