I have been justified.

"Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the hope of the glory of God."
‭‭Romans‬ ‭5:1-2‬ ‭NIV‬‬

It's so amazing to remember that through our faith in Jesus, we are declared righteous before God the Father. When He looks at us, He sees us as perfect and blameless, just as if we hadn't sinned! We are flawless in His eyes!

* Listen to 'Cornerstone' by Hillsong https://youtu.be/izrk-erhDdk

* Write 'I am justified' on a post it and put it in your car or somewhere where you will see it often.

* Memorise Romans 5:1-2 in your favourite version of the Bible.

* Say - I am God's Child
        - I am chosen by God and adopted
        - I have been redeemed and forgiven of all my sins
- I have been justified

Pray:

Dear God, it's really hard to imagine that when You look at me, You see me just as if I had never sinned! Thank You that I can be sure of this because Your Word tells me and thank You that because of Jesus' death and resurrection, I can talk to You anytime!

In His Name,
Amen.

"See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!"   1 John‬ ‭3:1‬a NIV‬‬
