068 Call To Forgive Pt. 7

This Is The Day with Pastor Waid

1st) Forgiveness is Hard 2nd) Forgiveness is Complete 3rd)Forgiveness is Costly 4th) Forgiveness pursues 5th) Forgiveness is continual

How do I know I have forgiven someone properly?

When you feel compassion toward the person who wronged you, then you can be assured you did truly forgive them. Let these Scriptures impact and change you to the core of your being. Let the power of prayer be your focus, and the Scripture your heartbeat. Our standard is not that of the world, but that of God. We would not want to go through life in misery and bitterness, remembering those who wronged us, harboring grudges, and experiencing unhappiness. This is not the plan that Christ has for us! Bitter people have no impact for the kingdom of God except to cause division and distraction. They have the tenacity and drive to show everyone the hurts and wrongs they suffered. Do not let this happen to you, or to the people around you. Take your lead from this verse, not your inclinations.
