never forgive, never forgiven

“If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you. Matthew 6:14 NLT

We all hear people say, "I will never forgive him/her!" Whilst this is often proudly said, it reveals they are not forgiven their sins by God, and are probably in a mess or heading for a mess.

Forgiveness sets us free, forgiveness gives God access to our hearts and the hearts of.the offender. When the scripture tells us we will be heaping coals on the heads of the offenders, it does not speak about judgement but blessing.

Offense is a trap of our enemy the devil. He wants to prevent us experiencing God's best, he even hopes to prevent us reaching a heavenly reward. Forgiveness ensures we receive our reward.

Forgive today! Make sure you are not robbed by offence. Amen!
