You’ve Got The Power

In Matthew 18:21—35 we noted that the power to forgive for a Christian is based on the realization that we can forgive others because God’s forgiveness of us has been so great and so complete. Paul notes this in such passages as Ephesians 4:32 “Forgive one another as quickly and thoroughly as God in Christ forgave you;” and Colossians 3:13-14 “Be even-tempered, content with second place, quick to forgive an offense. Forgive as quickly and completely as the Master forgave you. And regardless of what else you put on, wear love. It’s your basic, all-purpose garment. Never be without it.”

I cannot tell you how important it is for true biblical forgiveness to be practiced in relationships for them to be what God & we desire for them to be. There are relationships of friends, spouses, family members that are ebbing away or have already died because this type of forgiveness is not practiced.

I pray that today will be the first day of your letting go of past hurts or resolving to live in an attitude of forgiveness so that you will never let an offense take control of your life.
