Blocking Deception

DAY 4 OF 5

Repentance Changes Everything

Repentance is about making peace with God, getting back into right standing with Him, and getting back into His perfect will.

Godly sorrow produces repentance that leads to salvation and brings no regret, but the sorrow of the world produces death.—2 Corinthians 7:10, MEV

To walk as a champion for Jesus, you have to walk in total repentance. Every unconfessed sin gives the devil legal grounds for him to remain and own real estate in your walk with God. To repent means to turn away from that place, that location, that part of our life and never go back to it. We break the powers of darkness completely and fully. I believe that the mark of a true champion is in Christ and Christ alone; not in us or our achievements. Be filled with the Holy Spirit. Be filled from the crown of your head to the sole of your feet. That is the mark of a champion.

But go and learn what this means, ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.—Matthew 9:13, MEV

Now I rejoice, not that you were made sorrowful, but that your sorrow led to repentance. For you were made sorrowful in a godly way, that you might not suffer loss in any way through us.—2 Corinthians 7:9, MEV
