Bridges recommends meditating on Romans 4:7-8 as one of the verses to use as you preach the gospel to yourself and I'm going to use it as my memory verse this time around.
Megan L. from San Marcos
Blessed are they whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered.
Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord will never count against him.
Romans 4:7-8 NIV
Here are more verses about God's awesome and total forgiveness:
He washes you. (Psalm 51:7)
He takes your sin far away. (Psalm 103:12)
He seals your sin in a bag and covers over it. (Job 14:17)
He treads it underfoot and hurls it into the depths of the ocean. (Micah 7:19)
He wipes it out. (Isaiah 43:25)
He chooses not to remember it. (Hebrews 10:17)
He puts it behind His back. (Isaiah 38:17)
Lord, help us live as those who know the gospel and live according to its power!

Cari (South Carolina) 14 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, 16 that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, 19 and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
