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.

MARY, DID YOU KNOW?

Date - December 19th, 2021 Topic - MARY, DID YOU KNOW? Bible Text - But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus.” - Luke 1:30-31 If God had asked the women of Israel who wanted to be the mother of the Messiah, every one of them would have raised her hand. If they had known what that privilege would actually involve—becoming pregnant before marriage, enduring terrible gossip, watching helplessly as their Son was mocked, ridiculed, tortured and crucified—those hands would have come down in a hurry. Mary certainly didn’t volunteer for the job. And she was stunned to discover she’d been selected for such an important role. She handled the extraordinary situation with grace and humility. She asked one question to help her understand God’s plan, then agreed to it immediately. God has a plan for each of us. Ours may not be as earth-shattering as Mary’s. Ou...

I Know Him

Date - January 25th, 2022 Topic - I Know Him Bible Tex t - Then [Jesus] asked them, “Who do you say I am?” Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.”Matthew 16:15-16 How can people describe the ocean when they have not experienced it? How would they explain the waves that crash against the rocks or the shifting of the sand as the tide tugs at the shoreline? Are they able to put into words how the sand feels between their toes or describe the majesty of an endless blue horizon? Until they have taken a dip in the salty, white-frothed ocean, their descriptions would be limited. Perhaps that is why Jesus asked the disciples to define their faith in him on a personal level rather than rely on what others had to say about him. Jesus challenged them to base their definition of who he was on the reality of what they had seen, heard, and experienced about him.  Today, many stand in public platforms and attempt to define Jesus as a good man, a teach...

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...
