It is today that the actor dies,
It is today that God exposes our demons in broad daylight,
It is always today that the dirty laundry is washed in the family,
God unpacks our closets and puts each of us face to face with our responsibilities.
Don’t dare say it doesn’t concern us, let’s pull out our chairs and get settled.
We all have an opportunity to free ourselves today, we have an opportunity to unburden ourselves this morning, the Lord also wants us to understand why we are not heard, why the promises are slow to be fulfilled, why so much frustration?
Dad organizes this family meeting to tell us that we must learn to let others leave our lives, we must know how to put things into perspective, know how to calm down to let him help us.
Where is the place of resentment? Grudges? Hate in our little hearts?
We sink because we haven’t understood that we all waste time resenting others, carrying heavy weights that aren’t worth it, not letting Jesus tear us down to build us up, not giving of our precious moment of love and sharing with the dogs.
Brothers and sisters, let’s be honest for once in our lives, let’s not even try to say to take care of our appearances that we gave up a long time ago, let’s not even dare to say that we no longer manage the details yet we died in we are vulnerable, sensitive, weak.
The Lord tells us today and now, let us be quick to forgive.
Forgiveness !
Forgiveness !
We have lost our graces because we hold people back in our lives, they take up too much space.
How can the Lord put new wine into old wineskins?
We have all taken the habit of saying that we have forgiven but we have not forgotten but imagine that Jesus Christ retorted to us too?
What would we have become?
Jesus carried our infirmities, our condemnations, our accusations, our curses, he accepted everything and he took it upon himself yet it was we who betrayed him, accused, rejected, humiliated… But he forgave us all the same and he continues to do so despite our disappointments.
The Bible tells us that we are to forgive seventy-seven times.
The book of Job tells us how much he suffered, abandoned by his wife and his friends who betrayed him, criticized him.
No one was loyal to him, no one supported him but God restored Job because he did not give in to revenge and he even prayed for those he offended him.
The lack of forgiveness destroys families, breaks couples, weakens destiny.
Jacob fled, forced to separate from his family sooner than expected because of his cheating.
Isau was very angry and promised him death.
During the years, Jacob went to lock himself in servitude because his brother had not let go of the piece, he could not forgive him.
Until the Lord meets us, breaks us, changes our identity, and radiates his glory into our lives, we cannot successfully shed our cloaks of reproach.
Absalom made it look like he forgave his brother Ammon who raped his sister.
He waited two years, he gave everyone confidence and he hit very hard.
He brought disgrace and shame to the royal family.
Absalom was also angry with his father David who did not know how to manage the problems and ignored such a delicate thing and his son harbored a lot of hatred and he grew up with it.
Bitterness sabotages our character.
So if we are angry with a wife, a mother, an uncle, a child, a neighbour, a fiancé, a friend, a sister, we must go and draw the strength within ourselves to let him go, we must empty our attics and to clean.
These pains do not help us, they rob us of our peace and joy.
They prevent us from moving forward and savoring the moments of happiness that the Lord offers us.
So let’s take our phones and call these people that we put in our drawers,
Let’s write to them, go to them and tell them that we have forgiven them.
Let’s make peace.
It’s hard,
It’s humiliating
But let’s just know that it’s our flesh that’s hurt.
We need this reconciliation to be ourselves.
It is for Jesus that we do it, it is Jesus who wins, it is Jesus who reigns.
Mark 11:25 – And when you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive, so that your Father in heaven may also forgive your trespasses.
Mark, 11:26 – But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father who is in heaven forgive your trespasses.
Pray to be quick to forgive.
How can we go to God with loads in our hearts?
How do we want to be heard when our mouths speak words our hearts don’t mean?
In any case, here is what God says: We love God, he is liberal, he always gives us the choice.
Our decision is his.
He advises us to forgive before placing ourselves in front of him, make peace with our environment otherwise we hope for nothing and expect nothing from the Lord as well.
His condition is clear and it is up to us to position ourselves.
Love forgives everything and knows no offenses.
Love and value each other.
It’s about forgiveness.
Hello beloved
Good day
