Seed Of Destiny By Pastor Paul Eneche by BASD(m): 8:18am On Nov 26, 2015 |
SCRIPTURE: And when you stand praying, forgive
if you have ought against any that your father
which is in heaven may forgive you your
trespasses but if you do not forgive neither will
your father which is in heaven forgive your
trespasses. – Mark 11:25-26.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: “Unforgiveness” is
one of the worst attacks on spirituality
From our anchor scripture, we understand that
forgiveness is necessary for the effectiveness
of prayer. In other words, your prayer is useless
until you forgive and get rid of offences.
Unforgiveness is one of the worst attacks on
spirituality. The bait of offence is what the
enemy uses to destroy the prayer life of God’s
people.
The truth is, whenever the devil does not know
what to do about you, he will send people to
offend you. One man who repented from the
occult confessed that whenever they wanted to
destroy Christians and did not know how to
handle them, they would send people to annoy
them and through annoyance, they could easily
access their lives.
If you want to have access to God in the place
of prayer, you must deal completely with the
spirit of unforgiveness.
Now, what does it mean to forgive?
1. It means to give up resentment. For
instance, you were resentful and angry but
decided to give it up. Forgiveness means
ceasing to feel resentful.
2. It means to cease from bitterness and
grudges. That is to say, “I was bitter before, I
was angry with you before, but now I have
stopped being bitter and bearing grudges.”
3. It means to excuse the fault of others. This
is a situation where someone says, “Okay, I
assume he must have been under pressure that
was why he acted like that,” and that settles it.
4. It means to write it off. As in writing off a
debt, you can write off the obligation of others
by virtue of their offences towards you.
Remember this: Unforgiveness is one of the
worst attacks on spirituality.
ASSIGNMENT(S):
1. Check your life if you are embittered against
anyone.
2. Release anyone you are holding in bitterness
or “unforgiveness” in your heart.
PRAYER: Help me LORD, to release everyone I
am holding grudges against in my heart in
Jesus’ Name.
DAILY READING: Daniel 2:24 to 3:30, 1 Peter 4:7
to 5:14, Psalms 119:81 to 96, Proverbs 28:15 to
16.
QUOTE: Our ability or inability to forgive affects
our lives in eternity. Culled from AM I BITTER?
