Greetings in The Mighty Name of Jesus, The Christ!!!
Forgiveness–Repent-Grant
Brothers and Sisters, when was the last time that Forgiveness crossed your mind. Has it been Years, Months, Weeks, Days or Hours? Forgiveness Never Dies, Never Gets Old, Is a Brand New Start, Is a Cleaner Of Unforgiveness and Vengeance, it is something that We, The Church, Born Again, Blood Bought, must always carry with us at All Times and be Ready To Use In All Cases. Forgiveness, is a Godly Attribute, being Christ Like.
Psalm 86:5 KJV
“For thou, Lord, [art] good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee."
Romans 10:9-10 KJV
"9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."
For Every Action there Must Be a Reaction… What we Do or Say causes this… Asking for Forgiveness Requires a Reaction on Both Parties, because we Ask, Jesus will Forgive, because Jesus Forgave, We Must be Obedient To Jesus, His Word and The Holy Spirit!!! This is a Process throughout the rest of Our Lives until We Go Home!! Forgiveness is Always an Action of Asking and Doing, this will never change!!!
Jesus gave the Prime Example of Forgiveness, while hanging on the cross…
Luke 23:34 KJV
"Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots."
In my truck I made a card in Big Bold Letters, setting on my dash for ME to Read when drivers do wrong, but it is not as much for them as it is for me to Forgive Them. I usually do not have Road Rage, most of the time I let what happens, happen, but there are times when I get Angry because of Careless Driving or someone riding my bumper, that I have to be Reminded, again, I HAVE TO BE REMINDED, to Forgive Them, so that I may Remain Sinless! If I Forget and my Anger gets the better of me, then, I MUST ask for Forgiveness, because I did not Show Jesus Living In Me, but The World!!!
Matthew 6:14-15 KJV
"14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: 15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses."
One of the Hardest area’s that most Born Again have in Forgiveness, yet there are Two, the first is to Forgive one’s self of the Transgression against Jesus, the second is to Forgive those who Continue to Sin Against Us and yet Ask For Forgiveness every time they Transgress against Us… or may Not Ask!
Matthew 18:21-22 KJV
"21 Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? 22 Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven."
Many seem not to catch this, but Jesus said that we Must Forgive them 490 Times, most say that we need to Forgive if Asked, but Jesus did say they Must Ask, He did put a Limit, because He said “Until”, now most of us will not Remember the past Twenty Times, little alone 490 Times, so the Rule should Stand, if they Ask, Forgive or if they Don’t Ask, Forgive! If they have Reached that Number of 490 Times, The Holy Spirit will let us know when to Walk Away, until then, Forgive!!
Another thing that you Must Notice, that the Person who is Committing The Sin, may or may not Ask for Forgiveness! We Must have a Heart Of Forgiveness no matter what or else we will not Find Forgiveness. Jesus Died for Our Sin, before anybody Asked for Forgiveness Of Our Sins…
Romans 5:8 KJV
“But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."
Church, if you are looking for someone to Ask For Forgiveness, then You have Not Learn The Fathers Lesson in Forgiveness! The Father Commanded Jesus, His Son, to Die for Our Sins, to Grant Forgiveness Before we even Asked For It, but, again BUT, We Must Ask For His Forgiveness Before It Is Granted To Us AS AN INDIVIDUAL… Confession…
Jesus Died Once for All Sin, Forgiveness Hangs in The Balance of Me Asking. When someone Sins or does us wrong, We, Church, MUST Extend Forgiveness even though they may not ask, so that Forgiveness is Always There rather they Acknowledge the Fact or not, it Remains In Us To Forgive!!!
To be Like The Father, We have No Choice but to Forgive No Mater What Comes Against Us, that means, in a Childs Death, a Siblings Death, a Parents Death, a Friends Death or any other crime against humanity exist, We, The Church, Must Forgive, rather They Ask or Not!!!
Matthew 7:21 KJV
“Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven."
We must also realize that Vengeance is Unforgiveness In The Flesh. This could mean Not Talking to someone because they did us wrong, or Stop Doing Something because someone has done us wrong, or Wishing a Curse upon someone because they have done us wrong. We, The Church can not be Vengeful in any way, but Must have Forgiveness no matter what!!! Vengeance belongs to The Father, NOT US!!!
Psalm 94:1 KJV
“O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance belongeth, shew thyself."
Nahum 1:2 KJV
“God [is] jealous, and the LORD revengeth; the LORD revengeth, and [is] furious; the LORD will take vengeance on his adversaries, and he reserveth [wrath] for his enemies."
Romans 12:19 KJV
“Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but [rather] give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance [is] mine; I will repay, saith the Lord."
Forgiveness Walks a Lonely Path, it is something that We Must Choose To Do, it is Not Given, but is Presented To Do So. This is the One Thing that Man and Satan do not have, that is, The Power and Authority to Forgive as Jesus Did, but We, The Church, have been given so to do!!!
I want, Jesus wants, each of you to Examine Your Hearts for Unforgiveness, for Vengeance and Repent and Forgive and Move On. Unforgiveness puts you in a State of Not being able to Mature In God, but will hold you in stalemate to fester. Vengeance and Unforgiveness Walk Hand in Hand and are Equal in God’s Eyes. God will not Force you to Forgive, it Must be of a Free Will that you do so, just as The Father by His Free Will gave up His Son for you, we Must do likewise!!!
Forgiveness is to Repent of one’s wrong doing and Grant to be Forgiven when Not Deserved!!!
Amen and Amen!!!
