How to Be Free From Unforgiveness
How to be free of unforgiveness when someone has hurt you badly. I wish that it was something very easy to do, but it’s not. It takes time, patience and a willingness to forgive. I think many people hold unforgiveness as a way of trying to hold the person or persons captive to what they do.
But many times the only one that is held captive is you. The person that caused the pain is going on and living their life free and happy. Sometime they may not even know that they hurt you. But you are the one that is sad, angry and depressed. Unforgiveness will make you mentally sick causing deep depression and in turn will make you physically sick. It can even lead to death.
Is it really worth feeling this way? I would say no. Now I do realize that they may deserve to be unforgiven because of what was done. But let me ask you a question. How many people have you hurt in your life that you needed to forgive you?
I can speak on forgiveness. I have had an aunt murdered and this really tore up everyone in the family. But my uncle may have been the one that took it the hardest. Not only was this her brother but he is also a Pastor. So he teaches and believes in forgiving people for what they have done.
But he stated that he struggled for many years in forgiving the people that was responsible for his sister’s death. So how was he eventually able to give, and I have 1 word for you and that one word is God. A lot of times that the pain is so bad that we just don’t have the power ourselves to forgive and we need help and God is there to help us.
My uncle stated that once he was truly able to forgive he felt so much better. It was as if a huge weight was lifted off of him. So are you ready to be free from the bondage that you are in and live the life that God has for you?
Then just say these words. Heavenly Father:
I come to you in prayer asking for the forgiveness of my Sins. I confess with my mouth and believe with my heart that Jesus is your Son, And that he died on the Cross at Calvary that I might be forgiven and have Eternal Life in the Kingdom of Heaven. Father, I believe that Jesus rose from the dead and I ask you right now to come in to my life and be my personal Lord and Savior.
I repent of my Sins and will Worship you all the days of my Life!. Because your word is truth I confess with my mouth that I am Born Again and Cleansed by the Blood of Jesus! In Jesus Name, Amen.
Now if you believe that then you are SAVED. The next step is to find you a good bible based church so that you can grow. This is not optional but mandatory. Pray and ask God and he will lead you.
