When the enemy tries to remind you of why you shouldn't. Rebuke his tail. Then, tell him that old memory is exactly why God said YOU should!
Three things : Past, Present, Purpose
Past
Our past, is our past. We all have one. And Sin is one thing we all have in common. However, the sin in our past does not define Gods vision for our purpose. The people who had your ear, are no longer an influence. And their opinions do not matter. Remember this: There is a reason why they were removed from you. God, is God, alone. And, he needs the help of no man. He forgives, protects and grants mercy to whomever he chooses.
Therefore, pay no attention to the people satan sends to remind you of your past. Rebuke him and stop allowing the enemy to distract you. His attack actually means, you are on the right course. So keep walking, smiling, and praising forward in the Will of God.
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord , “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jeremiah 29:11 NIV)
Present:
Be thankful for the lessons you learned from your past. They will assist with the opportunities to help others.
Listen, Your past can also be reffered to as your experience. And just like many other professions, experience levels the playing field by giving you the knowledge and wisdom required to go forth and accomplish great works.
The work that is required: God's Will.
We must find a way to reach the wounded. Our siblings, who are hurting need our help. In most cases, the burden and down trotten may think, no one understands, cares, or can relate. Sadly, they may feel alone.

However, God called You to strengthen your brothers and sisters. So, I say embrass all of you. The new you; forgiven, and loved by Christ Jesus. You are unique and God loves you, flaws and all. We are covered by the blood. You are saved. Again, I say rebuck the enemy. Shame and doubt are not of God. They are a distraction Satan wants to use that trips you during your walk.
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. (1 John 1:7 NIV)
Purpose
Purpose
When God calls you into your purpose, he will give you everything you need to succeed. He is not a sometimes or almost God. He makes no mistakes. Be encouraged and stay focused. There is much work to be done.
Just as Paul wrote:
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. (2 Corinthians 12:9 NIV)
Guess what? Satan sees my sin as a weakness. I declare, I will use my repentance to bring people to Christ! I will remain strong and in the will of God. Taking comfort in this: everything works together for the good of those who love the Lord.
So every time Satan surfaces with a new scheme, stand strong in truth. Be prepared. Unfortunately, he will try. But he is a lie!
You are destined! Keep looking to Jesus!
"For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.” (John 6:40 NIV)
Do not be discouraged. Continue on your path.
Solution for the enemy reminding you of you past:
(Matthew 13:57-58 NIV)
And they took offense at him. But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his own town and in his own home.” And he did not do many miracles there because of their lack of faith.
