THE EVIL OF UNFORGIVENESS - 4
Please Read - Mathew 6:14-15
Unforgiveness is actually taking something that belongs to God, and
taking matters into our own hands. God's Word tells us clearly that we
should allow God to bring His wrath upon that person, and let Him have
the room to repay those who wrong us:
Romans 12:19, "Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord."
Those who have wronged us will reap what they sow. If you choose to forgive somebody, they may be off your hook, but that doesn't mean they are off God's. God's Word tells us clearly that what we sow, we shall reap.
What unforgiveness actually is
Unforgiveness is actually a form of hate against another person. If a person hates somebody, it is a sign that the person is lacking love in their heart. Why? They are not firmly rooted and grounded in the love of Christ, and Christ's love is not flowing through them. As simple as that sounds, that's how it works.
What somebody may have done against us is one thing, but if you take Satan's bait of unforgiveness to heart, it will do much more harm than they did. Do you want to continue to allow their mess to trouble you even more? Have they not done enough damage? Allowing yourself to hang onto hard feelings and become bitter is only causing your wound to become even more infected spiritually. Honestly tell yourself, what good is it doing you to hold onto the hurt and bitterness that the enemy has tried to plant within you? It is doing nothing but harm, and is holding you in bondage spiritually. Don't let this fool you, bitterness is known in the Bible as spiritual poison.
"May our hearts release those we are holding in unforgiveness"
Pray with me;
Lord help me to live above provocations and offenses in Jesus name!
It's your day of testimonies!
