IMPLICATION OF UNFORGIVENNESS AND UNFORGIVEN SIN

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. 

DATE: FRIDAY 14TH JANUARY

TOPIC: IMPLICATION OF UNFORGIVENNESS AND UNFORGIVEN SIN

TEXT: MATTHEW 18: 21 – 35

Key verse: Matthew 18:33 Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellow servant, even as I pitiedr refuses to offer forgiveness:He is displaying ingratitude for the forgiveness he received from God. He is putting offenders in prison. 

Forgiveness gives liberty, freedom, peace and rest. Ensure you forgive to remove that yoke from others. Even banks cancel bad debts and lift burdens on their customers; Ensure you work for the forgiveness of the offended. 

If you refuse to forgive, it means you are keeping that man in prison; If you do not forgive, you will receive condemnation; In this text, the man grasped his fellow servant on the throat. The people around gave an evil report to him. 

Some people are too proud to say sorry to their wives or husbands [Spouse]. Don't give indirect forgiveness; speak out the offences from your mouth; When you refuse to forgive, you will face divine judgment; If you are forgiven, can you not be merciful to others too? The judgment of God will certainly catch up with you if you don't learn to forgive;

Scriptural instances on forgiveness 

a. Jacob solicited and received Esau’s forgiveness, (Genesis 32: 3 – 11),

b. Joseph forgave his brethren when they came to Egypt. (Genesis 50:15-21)

c. The prodigal son received his father's forgiveness (Luke 15: 11-32

)d. Paul wrote Philemon to forgive Onesimus (Philemon 10-18)

.Learn to apologize to your others where it is required

Thought for today: To forgive, drop your pride

Song for the day: Mercy Oh Lord (2x) Father show as your mercy…..

Bible reading for the day: Genesis 33-35; 
Matthew 11.

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING  _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA*  Int'l Director        (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018  _TOPIC:_    *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER*           TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
