Hello Family pray with me,
Heavenly Father I am thankful for You being in my life, I pray that I may be better at living as you wish me to live today than I was yesterday and if I have slipped Father I pray that I be guided to understand my faults and helped to correct them. Father God protect each of us, for we all have troubles of one sort or another and only Father know the deep-rootedness of those problems, be they health, finances, marital, only You know what they are and if our faith is strong enough in You Father and our prayers are genuine and from the heart I know You will provide the answers to each one of Your children. Father God I pray for the blessing that came with Jesus, Your Son, when You brought Him to earth. He walked among us and offered bold, brave and wise teachings. From Him we saw miracles as not seen before. I accept Jesus as my Lord and Savior and I give my sins to Him, asking in return for the forgiveness that will help me to an eternal life. I give my old life to Him and pray for new life…a life that will be filled by the Holy Spirit so that I may be guided in some way to help others find Jesus as their Savior. Jesus thank You for the great sacrifice and Your fruitful teachings. Father God I pray in the name of our Lord, Christ Jesus…..AMEN
Welcome again Family, we are poised on the precipice of something really big….do you know what that might be? “The Blessing”……yes that is true, but we are also on the very cliff’s edge today and everyday….God’s forgiveness of us as His servants…as His children. Yes He can and does forgive….but what is asked of us first….not in return…but first. We must forgive those who have sinned against us. It is amazing that when we realize we have committed a wrong that most will want to immediately apologize for it. But it is up to us on the receiving end of the wrong to be equally open about receiving the apology and allowing for our own forgiveness towards the brother or sister who committed the wrong-doing. How quickly we ask God’s forgiveness might be measured at times in milli or even micro seconds of the deed. I know that I may utter a word that I instantly regret and I am asking God’s forgiveness. However, when it is on a more earthly level, man to man, servant to servant of the Lord, why do we seem to be so much more resistive to extending forgiveness? Would the speed of the forgiveness change if we thought that God might do something generous in return? Well I hope that wouldn’t be the entire truth, for He also looks into our hearts to determine our sincerity, yes He can do that. Don’t just make motions with your mouth, but instead let your offer be heart-felt and I believe God will be quick to forgive as well.
We have to remember that there are many facets to sin; not just things that are addictive; we need to walk the walk that Jesus taught us, we must follow the path that God provides us, we must strive to not have vindictive actions…as much as we would like to throw a verbal barb back….or spread gossip about someone….God sees the sin for what it is and how it works against us to our own undoing. Forgiveness is a blessing, being able to say we truly forgive someone can be life-changing and worth the test.
For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins. Matthew 6:14-15
Go in Peace
Blessings to you all
Aloha
Randy
