A
reminder for today
Now,
however, it is time to forgive and comfort him. Otherwise he may be overcome by
discouragement. So I urge you now to reaffirm your love for him. (2
Corinthians 2:7-8)
Forgiveness is the most powerful tool we possess. It not
only breaks the chains of the enemy; it also releases you from the power the
enemy could have on you. It also releases the other person from the same grip. Forgives
heals and builds.
So now I encourage you to forgive and let go so that the
other person will not be discouraged but rather be encouraged to do better by the
love you show. Forgiveness is all about love and it embodies the scripture where
Jesus says that you should love another like yourself. Real love sees no hate
and real love brings about freedom for all.
So today I want you to forgive just as God has forgiven
you. Hold no grudges and keep no record of the wrongs against you. Love with
compassion and speak life over all those that needs your forgiveness. Release yourself
from the bonds of the enemy by forgiving and forgetting.
Then
Peter came to him and asked, "Lord, how often should I forgive someone who
sins against me? Seven times?" "No, not seven times," Jesus
replied, "but seventy times seven! (Matthew 18:21-22)
Lord, help us to forgive with compassion and give us the
strength to release those we hold in our grudges. Help us to love completely
and set us free from the enemy. In Jesus name.
Have an awesome day dear friend of Jesus.
Cheers
