Will Not Remember Thy Sins

The Wound

God names something worth examining closely here, will not remember, worth holding as genuine, deliberate choice, not divine forgetfulness in some limited, cognitive sense, but active, chosen non-remembrance, worth trusting as this verse’s own actual, intentional promise, not incidental oversight.

Notice for mine own sake, the specific reason given, worth holding as needed correction against whatever sense you carry that God’s forgiveness is primarily motivated by your own worthiness or sufficient repentance, rather than this verse’s own claim, his own sake, God’s own character the actual, primary reason.

This is worth examining against however much you have continued bringing up, rehearsing, or anxiously revisiting sins God himself has actually promised not to remember, worth considering what it might mean to actually receive this promise, not continuing to hold onto what has genuinely, deliberately been released.

Whatever sin you continue anxiously rehearsing, despite genuine confession, receive today this verse’s own direct claim. I, even I, will not remember thy sins, this deliberate choice made for his own sake, not contingent on your own sufficient worthiness, worth actually, practically receiving today.
