— Micah 7:19 (ESV)

If you’ve ever felt haunted by the sins of your past, you’re not alone. But the gospel doesn’t let our past define our future. The Lord, in His covenant faithfulness, does not merely cover our sin—He casts it into the ocean floor. Gone. Forgotten. Irretrievable.

That’s not therapeutic language. That’s redemptive reality.

Audio Adrenaline captured it like this:

"𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘥 𝘺𝘰𝘶, 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺’𝘭𝘭 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘥 𝘺𝘰𝘶, 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺’𝘳𝘦 𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘤𝘦𝘢𝘯 𝘧𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘳..."

This echoes Micah’s Spirit-inspired confidence:

God pardons iniquity (v.18)

God delights in steadfast love

God does not retain His anger forever

God tramples our sin beneath His feet

God casts it to the ocean floor

The wrath we deserved was satisfied by Jesus. Justice was not ignored—it was fully executed on Christ in our place. And in Him, we are 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗻—𝘄𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗱.

𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝘀, 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀, 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀—𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗮 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘁.

Your sin has been drowned in the depths because your Savior conquered it completely. If you are in Christ, your failures are not your identity—His righteousness is (2 Cor 5:21).

Walk forward not in guilt, but in 𝗴𝗼𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗹-𝗳𝘂𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲.

He has hurled your sin away—𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗶𝘁.
