(a chapter from my book, The Turning Point: Breaking Through)
We have been forgiven much. Hence, we must also forgive others, anyone who hurt or offended us. [Luke 6:37 NLT, Luke 7:47 NLT, Matthew 6:12 NLT]
The act of Jesus, having died on the cross, created a way for all our sins to be forgiven, one act effective from then to now and forever. This is His ultimate sacrifice while He was living on Earth and doing God’s will. That’s why He is exalted to the place of highest honour in Heaven, seated at the right hand of God the Father. [Acts 2:33 NLT]
Sometimes, we may hurt too much. It may feel like we can never forgive those who have hurt and abused us in the past. Forgiveness is the key to moving forward and leaving our past behind. We can’t move forward if we do not forgive.
In the Mighty Name of Jesus, Amen.
Thank You, LORD GOD, in the Mighty Name of Jesus.
