LET FORGIVENESS COME FORTH

LET FORGIVENESS COME FORTH
Let forgiveness for your enemy's assaults come forth and cleanse you of your
pain. Wherein ye hold on, know it shall only embitter your soul. If you wait
to forgive,
for them to ask you for it, you will wait a long time, wrapped in a chain of
unforgiveness;
thus in pain because of it. Thus I call thee to release thyself and the
other victim of the
TRUE ENEMY'S design to sink BOTH OF YOU in depression and doubt. I want you
to
be able to rise above this. To come into and to know the freedom this
release of
forgiveness brings.
Many a man; many a woman harboring secret resentment makes bitter their own
lives and the lives of others because they won't let go of the pain. They
relive the
memory of it over and over to stoke the flames of resentment and bitterness
into hate.
The vow is that neither side will budge first. Who is the winner in such a
situation? And
who loses? And is it not better to show My Love by releasing your enemy
through
forgiveness? Behold, unto you will come peace, and forgiveness wherein I saw
YOU do
wrong.
The power of Loving unto forgiveness even of thy most hardened enemy shall
show itself in most surprising-to- you ways. Offer them a second chance to do
well. Keep
them not bound to their mistake because of their trespass against you.
Release it and them
to Me, who shall indeed deal fairly.
Come, lay thy enemies at My feet; even thy enemies. For behold, unto thee I
give
the power to release them of their guilt through forgiveness -- YOUR
forgiveness. But
whoso cannot release shall remain bound in and to the trespass along with
the guilty. And
in not forgiving them, know that I cannot forgive thee, saith He who loved
and forgave
all, even unto death. Selah.
My lessons today are unto all, everywhere, who harbor resentment against
their
brother or sister. Know it works as poison in thee. For know that the
binding of the
enemy's chains in thy unforgiveness is no different than being bound by any
of his other
chains. You are still going to be the hearer of his wicked taunts and bitter
words to further
enflame you. Best to set it free, thus you set yourself free from it's
besetments and
powers to further ride and deride you. Give it not this allowance of power.
Take it's
power away from it through My forgiveness, which I give thee. Even so, give
ye unto
them. For wherein ye harbor not bitter words, thoughts, feelings toward
them, they must
again seek to destroy your peace or leave you alone, which is often the
case.
Hear Me. It is better to suffer wrongs than to fight back. It is better to
forgive than
to defend and justify self's reasons for staying angry at any man. Behold,
before Me ye
all are responsible for your own thoughts, deeds words. And how you forgave
or held
onto offense at your brother's mistake. Behold, offenses to one may not be
offenses to
others, thus live your life in humility before Me; thus even your enemies
will be at peace
with you.
The story goes like this: He or she who harbors resentment and bitterness,
refusing to forgive, will themselves become products of bitterness and
complainers they
will be. Forgiveness washes the slate clean for you both, and may save the
soul of your
enemy one day. Best to show Love to your enemy's attack; love and respect.
So forgive;
it is a most powerful defense. Call not unto yourself a further harsh
response by your
own attack in retaliation. What good is that? Hear thou Me. Submit unto
forgiveness for
MY sake, thus you spare your soul the effects of bitterness.
