LOVE AND FORGIVE THEM LIKE HE LOVES AND FORGIVES US

Jesus is love and everything connected to Him knows and gives love to all, not just family and friends.  Scripture tells us not to just help those we love, that is expected of us.  God wants us to give to and help those we do not know or care for, yes, even our enemies “that’s the test.”   We cannot pick and choose the commands we will obey or the people we will help; because if we do we are walking on our own will, not His.  This is why unforgiveness and love are so important in our walk; we have to give up self-rightness in order for His will to be done.  What if the person we cannot forgive is the person God placed in our lives for a reason; but we push them away, along with our blessings because of unforgiveness.  We cannot expect God to give us mercy if we do not give mercy to others.  We cannot expect God to help us if we do not help others.  God bless us so we would bless others; God loves us so we would love others, and God forgives us so we will forgive others.  You can always tell who's close to Christ, they are the ones that act like Him.

Psalm 25:4-5 Teach us Your ways, O Lord; make them known to us.  Teach us to live according to Your truth, for You are our God, who saves us, we will always trust in You.

Father, reveal to us the knowledge and wisdom of Your Word and help us develop Fruit.  Father, give us eyes that see and ears that hear the Truth, no matter how it is written or what book we read, let us hold to what is good.  Jesus, remove everything from us that is not of You, every generational curse, every demonic Spirit; and replace it with the things of the Spirit.  Lord, thank You for the revelation of forgiveness so we will be forgiven; Lord, thank You, for the revelation of patience, so we will not walk ahead of You and out of Your protection.  Father, thank You for guidance as we walk through the valleys of death and evil, and thank You, Lord, for our Guarding Angles who protect us from the fiery arrows of our enemies.  Lord, thank You for grace and help us give that same mercy and love to others.  Jesus, help us overcome self-righteousness so we can walk in Your will and not our own.  Father, give us the self-control and faithfulness of Daniel so we will have Spiritual and moral discipline, and we will be submissive to the Word.  In Jesus name Amen
