in my hand is a clean crisp ten pound note it's worth ten English pounds okay but now watch this I've scrunched it up into a ball but what I'm about to do next will really gross you out can you see what I've done I've made it icky I've made it dirty I've made it gross at the beginning when it was clean and it was crisp the value of this note was 10 pounds now it's creased now it's dirty now it's filthy what is the value of this note in still 10 pounds dear precious believer you
might think you're creased you might think you're dirty you might think you're filthy but you've still not lost your value in God's eyes why because you are washed in the precious blood of his son the Lord Jesus Christ but I know what you're thinking you're thinking Joe you don't realize how many times I've committed sexual sin I really have made a mess I've been doing this for years we'll see you my friend let me just show you something in the scriptures in Romans 8 verse 38 says this for I am persuaded that neither death nor
life nor angels nor principalities nor powers nor things present nor things to come nor height nor depth nor any reiated thing shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord did you catch that it said nor any created thing so in other words you and I we've been created and we ourselves cannot separate ourselves from the love of God he will remain faithful when we are faithless he loves us deeper than we could ever imagine and you need to know this believer this is so much deeper
than you and I this is about God and his attributes of mercy of grace of love I hope you're not misunderstanding me in any way we are to be ruthless with sin could I ask you a personal question are you a pig or are you a sheep well what do you mean by that Joe well let me put it another way to you imagine there's a big muddy puddle in front of you you see the Sheep might get a bit curious it might come towards the edge and then accidentally it falls down into the muddy
puddle as soon as it falls it climbs out of the mud it runs away it scrambles out and gets as far away as possible from that dirty muddy puddle it's ashamed it's a sheep for the pig on the other hand when the pig sees that muddy puddle its eyes light up it'd be lines and it goes straight to that mud it loves the mud it looks to wallow in the mire it settles itself in and in its free will it decides to stay there with no thought of ever getting out it's there this is its
home its nature is to be dirty because it's a pig so let me ask you again are you a pig or are you a sheep do you feel ashamed when you fall into sin do you try and get as far away from sin as possible when you do fall you feel angry you feel frustrated you know this is not your home you know this is not right well if that's you you are a sheep and you need to keep fighting and I think the fact that you're watching this video today is very strong evidence that
there is a battle going on that you're not contempt in the mire and that you want to beat this sexual sin forever but I'm guessing you're watching this now because you have actually committed sin recently and you're thinking what should I do now Joe well do you remember when Jesus wanted to wash the disciples feet and he came to Peter and Peter said you're not washing murfi anyone can wash my feet but not you there's no way I am letting your Lord wash my feet what did Jesus say to him he said unless I wash
your feet you can have no part with me so then Peter quite that dramatically said well not just my feet my hands on my head also in other words Jesus give me a full bath but Jesus turns him and says you don't need a bath you don't need fully washing because you've already been washed whilst Jesus trying to say here Jesus was saying that you've already been born again you've already been converted you've already been fully washed when a man or woman puts their trust in the Lord Jesus Christ the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses
them it washes them it saves them from their sins but every now and then probably a bit more often than every now and then as we walk through this world we define ourselves we get stains from lies from anger from loss from pride and we need to come to the Lord Jesus Christ and say Lord Jesus would you cleanse me again would you make me clean again I know I'm already saved but I need to be clean again do I have permission to give you just one last warning King David once said restore to me
the joy of my salvation he just committed adultery he just had sexual intercourse with a woman who was not his wife Bathsheba you see when we commit sin we don't lose our salvation but we lose the joy of our salvation so let that be a warning to us all next time you're tempted to tap on a wrong image next time you're tempted to go to a sexual sin remember this dear friend God blesses obedience and if you're going to be disobedient sometimes the Lord will come for you sometimes the Lord will chastise you he'll cut
you down and it will be severe so I plead with you humble yourself so the Lord God doesn't have to humble you yes He loves us yes we never lose our value with we hide behind the riches of the Lord Jesus Christ but the same time we've got to be ruthless with sin we've got to be children of God that are obedient and live for our holy father who deserves only the best three things before you go first thing please do subscribe I'd love to see you again second thing I've got a playlist all unforgiveness
and conquering sin I think you'll find it very helpful and the third thing is this don't worry no 10 pound notes were harmed in the making of this video so I'll be using that 10 pounder game thank you for watching
