Forgive

DATE
24th February, 2023

TOPIC
Forgive (The Way of Peace)

LIVING SCRIPTURE
Mark 11:25-26 KJV
And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. 

[26] But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.




Forgiveness helps a believer in so many ways, when we forgive scripturally which is the only recommended way, we find peace first with God then with ourselves and our neighbors. When someone offends us, it's okay to be annoyed or feel angry or upset in the moment but it should not linger on in our hearts and minds. We need to forgive them whether they apologize or not. Knowing that forgiveness helps us more that have found a way of peace in Christ Jesus which cannot be found anywhere else.

Jesus Christ teaches in the book of Mark 11 a common hinderance to our speaking power and praying power. When we speak as children of God we should possess God's speaking authority but when we fail to forgive we lack the power of God, likewise when we pray, we should possess our decrees but are often hindered. Let's break free from unforgiveness and let love reign in us. Jesus Christ would have chosen to be offended by John the Baptist but rather He spoke well of him and testified of how great he was. 

We have a choice this morning, to either forgive and let go of all offenses or stay hindered and limited. Remember those who fail to forgive have lost contact with God's mercy and such is not welcome in the Kingdom of God. Let's live and teach forgiveness in the way of peace.



TO-DO
Search your hearts and minds and see who you kept there by offense and by the grace of God forgive them in Jesus name.

PRAYERS
Heavenly Father I thank you for your word this morning on forgiveness, please help me to let go and be more like you.

Lord Jesus Christ I no longer want to limit my speaking power and praying power, increase my faith in Jesus name.

THINKING GOD’S WAY

JULY 9TH – CAPSULE 9  TOPIC: THINKING GOD’S WAY  BIBLE TEXT: EPHESIANS 4VS23 – Be renewed in the spirit of your mind. How you process information and arrive at conclusions must always be subject to the will of God. Listen, “……….be made new in the attitude of your minds”. When you first start thinking Gods way, it will feel strange to you. It may even feel like a “put-on”. But it’s not. It works like this: you have to  (a). Practice being nice until you automatically become nice.  (b). Practice going to church on Sunday, until going anywhere else seems strange to you.  (c). Practice giving to God until it be comes as natural to you as shopping at the mall.  (d). Practice speaking the truth until even the smallest lie tastes bad in your mouth.  (e). Practice speaking kindness until every cynical, negative word is purged from your vocabulary. Its all a matter of practice! But you ask, “ isn’t that hypocritical – feeling one way and speaking an...

IT RUBS OFF

AUGUST 9th - CAPSULE 9 TOPIC: IT RUBS OFF BIBLE TEXT: Exodus 34 vs. 29 – His face glowed from being in the presence of God. You can only talk convincingly about the God you know, the one you’ve spent time with. Any other God belongs in a theology book, and you will have a hard time selling Him. When Moses came down from the mountain, his face shone. He had been in God’s presence, and when you’ve been there it shows in the way you look, the way you walk and talk, the way you treat your family, the way you spend your money and the way you respond to hurting people. It rubs off!   Paul Cain says “most of us are as close to God as we want to be”. Think about it “Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you” (James 4 vs. 8). How could you possibly be the same when you’ve been with Him? He transforms everything He touches. Listen – He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty” (Psalm 91 vs. 1). He didn’t say “visit” or...

THE FIRST WITNESSES

Date - December 22nd, 2021 Topic - THE FIRST WITNESSES   Bible Text - When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. - Luke 2:17-18 As anyone who has ever been part of a living nativity can tell you, the shepherds played an important role in the Christmas story. Angels announced Jesus’ birth to them. Since angels only do God’s bidding, it’s safe to say God wanted the shepherds involved. Naturally the shepherds were overwhelmed and frightened at first. But the angels calmed their fears. They headed off to Bethlehem, as the angels directed, unsure of exactly why they had been summoned by God. They had no gifts to give the baby or the young couple. They really had nothing to offer at all. Yet they went to see all that the angels had told them about. As a result, the shepherds were the only witnesses, besides Mary and Joseph, to Jesus’ first hours on ea...
