In our verse today, Jesus instructed you to consider forgiveness when you pray. And if you sense you have an offense against someone, release them from it, simply because when you do, the Father also releases you from your faults. Is there a relationship in your life that needs mending? Unforgiveness is self-imprisonment. As long as you hold on to unforgiveness, you are chained to the wound that bleeds from your soul or builds a wall of denial from which you can't escape. But you can escape the pain and live freely.
Today's One Thing
As you spend time in prayer today:
- Thank the Lord for the ministry of reconciliation.
- Thank Him for the bridges you've not burned.
- Ask Him to help you take the necessary steps toward reconciliation.
- Ask Him to intervene in a relationship you thought was beyond repair.
- Pray He will soften your heart and help you to forgive.
- Expect Him to plant forgiveness in your heart.
- Ask Him to give you a humble heart so you can make amends and let go of grudges.
