Love for the unlovable. Hope for the hopeless. Peace for the restless. Freedom for the captives. Jesus is the One who carries the solution to all brokenness permeating the earth. He is our joy, our life, our song. The only One who redeems.

Jesus goal is to uplift His people. Jesus does not condemn the ones He came to save. He died for the ones He came to save.

“There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” Romans 8:1

Condemnation is not found on His lips.

Love is found on His lips.

Jesus’ lips express Heaven’s love.

Godly leaders cheer on their people instead of discourage their people. Criticism and debasement comes the from devil. Edification and inspiration comes from our great God. He is the only God there is, which means He sets the standard. His Holy Spirit undergirds everything He says. His Holy Spirit teaches us the truth.

Love looks to esteem the other. Jesus lives with a full heart of love for you, which compels Him to honor you with love. You do not have to earn this love and honor. Jesus freely bestows it upon you by the Holy Spirit.

“And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who are spiritual.” 1 Corinthians 2:13

We need the Holy Spirit of God to encourage one another. There is no love apart from Him.

Jesus inspires, empowers, leads, and believes in His people to accomplish great things for Him. Jesus knows that His own Spirit is inside of His people, and thus, we are powerful because of Him.

If He were to condemn His own people, then He would be condemning Himself. Jesus does not condemn Himself, so He cannot not condemn you either.

Condemning voices are heretical voices. Silence voices who speak against the authority of scripture’s truth of God’s grace over you.

“Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.” John 3:18

This is good news because Jesus takes away all condemnation. He takes away all guilt. He takes away all sin. Give your life to Him and this peace is yours. Humanity is condemned without Jesus, but with Jesus it stands redeemed.

You can belong to Jesus if you want to.

Jesus says… invite me in and I will love you as My own.

“The words of the Lord are pure words, like silver refined in a furnace on the ground, purified seven times.” Psalm 12:6

Jesus’ heart is pure. His love is pure love and His words are pure. Therefore, everything He says is right.

“The unfolding of your words gives light; it imparts understanding to the simple.” Psalm 119:130

“So shall my word be that goes out from My mouth; it shall not return to Me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it.” Isaiah 55:11

God speaks with purpose. Every word has a mission and a reason for Him saying what He says. We want to listen to everything the Lord has to say.

Jesus speaks love over you.

Jesus speaks hope over you.

Jesus speaks joy over you.

Jesus speaks blessing over you.

Jesus speaks honor over you.

Jesus speaks joy over you.

“Instead of your shame there shall be a double portion; instead of dishonor they shall rejoice in their lot; therefore in their land they shall possess a double portion; they shall have everlasting joy.” Isaiah 61:7

Shaming people for their sins is wrong theology. Jesus came to erase sins and take away His people’s shame, not put shame on them. Satan, however, lives to shame God’s people. Satan would love nothing more than to tear you down and remind you of past sins, but He can’t because God’s voice is louder than the devil’s. God’s grace over you will never be usurped by the devil’s rants.

The devil loses every time. Jesus wins.

“I sought the Lord, and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears. “Those who look to him are radiant, and their faces shall never be ashamed.” Psalm 34:5

Trust the Lord’s words over you. Forget the words of naysayers and critics. Don’t listen to the voice of those who esteem the law over grace. Jesus’ grace is yours. Do listen to God’s voice when you don’t understand what He is doing, because people will not always understand what God is doing and they will dissuade you from God’s plan for your life. God is greater than people and He will have His way and He does not need to cut you down in order to speak to you and guide you. God leads you by His Holy Spirit with kind words and a loving spirit.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.” Proverbs 3:5-6
