You don't have to live in shame, your shame is nailed to the old rugged cross.

Main message: You don't have to live under shame or keep punishing yourself for sins Christ paid for; when accusations come, take them to the cross, call on Jesus, and move forward. In times of wilderness, worship and reliance on the Savior are practical ways to be lifted out.

Key points:

• Shame is nailed to the cross; you can refuse to live under it.
• When the enemy accuses, don't defend yourself—take the accusation to Jesus and the cross.
• Christ died and was buried for your sins, so you shouldn't continue self-punishment.
• In times when pain is louder than promise, call on Jesus for help.
• Worship is a powerful way to get through the wilderness and refuse to stay where God has delivered you.
