LET GO!

LET GO!

There is a saying that goes thus “To err is human to forgive is divine”. To let go is to stop holding something. All beings commit sins and make mistake. No one is perfect save our GOD. We are all walking towards that, JESUS enjoined us in Matthew 5 vs. 48: Be ye therefore perfect even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. GOD forgives us, He is a merciful GOD. He is longsuffering. Forgiveness is divine. Men find it difficult many a time to forgive their fellow being. Mistakes and offences are inevitable you have to cultivate the habit of forgiving easily. Many like holding grudges; many have no heart to forgive. Many have no heart to show mercy. Many believe they are not in position to let go when offended physically or emotionally. There is possibility you might not forget when someone hurts you, but letting go and forgiving helps you move on. If GOD can be merciful unto us, despite our debts of sin; he didn’t condemn us; yet he still sent his only begotten son JESUS CHRIST to die for us, then we should forgive those that offend us. His love for us is immeasurable. Romans 5 vs. 8: But GOD commendeth his love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners CHRIST died for us. Forgiveness is exhibiting love. A man that has GOD’s love will find it easy to forgive those who offend him. GOD’s love for us made it easy and possible to forgive us. I observe little children forgive easily. Little children might quarrel with each other now and in an hours’ time they start playing together again. It is we adults that hold grudges and keep malice. No wonder JESUS said in Matthew 18 vs. 3: And said, verily I say unto you, except ye be converted and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. An unforgiving heart will be adamant and can’t receive anything from GOD. If GOD is an unmerciful GOD and unforgiving GOD no man will stand till date. The Psalmist says in Psalm 130 vs. 3: If thou mark iniquities, O LORD, who shall stand? But GOD in his mercies forgives us easily. Unforgiving is the work of the flesh, a man of the spirit will let go and forgive easily. Matthew 6 vs. 14-15: For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly father will also forgive you; but if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your father forgive your trespasses. Let go of that grudge, it will only be a burden to you and will cause hindrances to your prayer. It might hurt you when you are offended; but you hurt yourself more when you do not forgive. It continues tomorrow. Kindly, share with others. It is well with us…

AN OUTCAST

AN OUTCAST An outcast is one that has been excluded from a society or system. He is labeled a beggar. He is an outsider. An outcast is a person that lacks care. An outcast is neglected and overlooked. He is demoralized. He is wounded in heart. He is labeled whom no one cares. He is one that has lost hope. He is one who is frustrated and dejected. He is one who is always deep in thoughts and sorrowful. He is one who lives like a foreigner in his own land. He is one who is distressed. He is one who gets dispossessed of his possessions. He is one who is perplexed. He is one who is troubled on every side. He is one who is despair. He is afraid of tomorrow. CHRIST came that we might have a restored hope. He came to bare that burden of ours. He came to give us that expected end. He came that we might have peace. He came that we might be healed . Isaiah 53 vs. 5: But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and w...

OUR DAYS.

OUR DAYS Greetings to all reading on this platform worldwide. I write on this topic OUR DAYS even as   my twin sister and I are a year older today. Glory be to GOD for a new year and a new day. A song says great is thy faithfulness, Oh LORD my father, morning by morning new mercies we see, all we have needed his hands have provided, Great is thy faithfulness. Truly great is his faithfulness toward all men. Many are not convinced of these, many don’t see something special in GOD’s faithfulness towards them. David said “Then I lay down and slept in peace and woke up safely, for the LORD was watching over me. He GOD never sleeps nor slumber over us, we just find out we sleep and before you know it, you open your eye to a new day. This is the LORD’s doing and it should be marvelous in our sights. We are to see reasons to always appreciate and thank GOD for his goodness, mercies and faithfulness. That you are alive shows He is faithful. The gift of life which is the greatest of...

TRAPPED BY YOUR OWN DESIRES 1

TRAPPED BY YOUR OWN DESIRES 1 Everybody has a desire and some desires glorify GOD, while some do not. Desire is a strong feeling of wanting something. Many get trapped by their desires. The LORD our GOD knows our needs, desires and expectations; we are to delight ourselves in the LORD, commit our ways unto the LORD so he can give us our desires. Psalm 37 vs. 4-5: Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. Many have desires that are against GOD’s will. Many have desires that will take the place of GOD. Many have desires that will lead to disobedience to GOD’s will. Paul said in 2 Corinthians 10 vs. 5: Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalt itself against the knowledge of GOD, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of CHRIST. There are imaginations and desires that will repel a man from GOD’s plan and will for his life. W...
