FATHER CLEANSE OUR HEARTS

Forgiveness is about how God forgives us, but also about how we forgive each other. Forgiving can be hard when someone hurt us. This is why we must give it to the Lord because we cannot do it on our own.  "Ephesians 4:31-32 Get rid of all bitterness, passion, and anger. No more shouting or insults, no more hateful feelings of any sort. Instead, be kind and tender-hearted to one another, and forgive one another, as God has forgiven you through Christ." (Y'all pray for me so I can release the devil's toehold)

The Word is a place of relationship, a place where we bring our hearts to be cleaned and put in line with God’s will.  A place where we release: anger, pain, malice, and hate; to receive guidance on how we should forgive:  A place where God’s love observes kindness, toward us when we do wrong.  A place, where we learn how to mirror that same love and kindness, to those who wronged us.  A place where we can leave vengeance in His hand.

Father, give us Your strength and courage to find those with whom we have a grievance and straighten it out.  Then Lord, when we have done our best to mend our broken world; we can return to the altar and offer praise and thanksgiving because our hearts are clean.  So, Lord, right now we leave vengeance in Your hands because we can trust that You will judge those who sin against us, so cleanse our heart right now in the name of Jesus.  Father, we know You love everyone, even those with dark-hearts and when we allow ourselves to carry a grudge toward anyone, we cannot meet with You in open communion.  So, we decree and declare that we will forgive, be still, and let You order our steps, in Jesus name, Amen
