RELEASING OTHERS

Luke 17:1-4
Devotional:- “And if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times in a day returns to you, saying, 'I repent,' you shall forgive him” (V.4) NKJV

    It is easy to say “Away with Him, kill him” when you are not the one to be killed. Parents would bitterly discipline their children for an offence they too had committed in the past and were not killed.

The scripture we read today reveals how wicked people can be. A servant, who owed his master so much, just as we owed God so much, was forgiven but could not forgive his colleague, but locked him up in the police cell. This cruelty made his master reverse the mercy he had shown him earlier.

Friend, who are the people you have refused to forgive? No matter what they have done, you’ve done worse things to God. The truth is that you are doing more harm to yourself when you don’t forgive others. This will create tension and bitterness in your heart and make you lose strength (Hebrews 12:15). Many people’s heaven is blocked because of unforgiveness. But as soon as you forgive, your rain starts falling again. Job was badly wounded by his friends when they attempted to correct him (Job 16:2). But he began to experience restoration when he prayed for his friends (Job 42:10). Arise, take a bold step today, and forgive those who offend you. Your strength shall be restored in a double way for progress.

PRAYER: LORD, GRANT ME THE GRACE TO ALWAYS FORGIVE OTHERS.

THE GRACIOUS Exodus 34:1-8 Devotional:- “…The Lord, the Lord a God merciful and gracious, long-suffering and abundance in goodness and truth” (V.6) AMPL      For believers of this Generation to have the fullness of heaven as the word of God promised, they will need to have the right understanding of who our God is. It is the wrong concept of God that has limited the exploitation of Christians and made many lives wrongly. God’s word says those who know their God shall be strong (Daniel 11:32). If you will be stronger than your challenges you must know your God.

ONLY THE VICTORS Revelation 21:1-8 Devotional:- “He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son” (v. 7) NKJV      In this part of the world, many are not so used to taking responsibility over challenges. Instead of been proactive to foresee and prevent issues, people are used to looking out for whom to blame and who should help out (Proverbs 14:23). It is vivid that we are in a challenging season. It is also clear that we are drawing closer to the end of the age.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
