Transgression
Precious one, ‘Do you know what transgression means? In Greek and Hebrew transgression means to rebel, sin, and offend. But more specifically it is talking about conscious, willful rebellion against someone, especially God. This person knows better, but for selfish motives, does wrong anyway. This person has no fear of God. He’s the One who brought you into this world, and He’s the One that can take you out!
Transgression is a presumptuous sin – to choose to disobey intentionally or unintentionally. Transgression means to fall away after being close beside!’ Peter trespassed when he denied Jesus on the way to the cross. (Luke 22:34, 56-62)
You cross the line in your thoughts, words, and attitudes many times a day and should be quick to repent and forgive others who do the same. (Matthew 6:15)
1. Transgression is a presumptuous sin – to choose to intentionally disobey; Samson intentionally broke his Nazarite vow by touching a dead lion (Numbers 6:1-5, Judges 14:8-9) and allowing his hair to be cut (Judges 16:17) he was committing a transgression.
David was referring to this kind of sin when he wrote: ‘Blessed are those whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered.’ (Psalms 32:1) When we knowingly run a stop sign, tell a lie, or blatantly disregard an authority we are transgressing. Stop today and ask the Father to reveal to you any sin that is in your heart that you are not aware of and ask Him to create in you a clean heart and renew a right spirit within. (Psalms 51:10) Also, be aware of transgressions in your bloodline and break the power of generational curses that have come down the bloodline.
