THE DAILY BLUEPRINT FOR 11-6-06
IF YOU FORGIVE
MATTHEW 6:14
For if you forgive men their trespasses, your Heavenly Father will also forgive you!
There is something cleansing about forgiveness -Both for the forgiven and for the forgiven - we all expect God to forgive us - but are we so willing to forgive others? Jesus says that if we will only forgive other's the sins they have committed against us -will He forgive the sins we have committed -its easy to judge others - but when it comes down to it -do we have the same standards for us - for us sins? We all sin -this is fact- there is not any way around that - you can say you have no sin -but God will call you a lair -and that is just what you would be - now the goal is to sin less and to become more and more like JESUS - we should no longer want to sin -but sin happens - all have fallen short says Paul! None of us always do right - and apart from Christ living in us -we cannot do it right at all -as ive said lately- given the right set of circumstances -all of us can sin -and all of us will! Jesus Christ our LORD is the only one without sin - yet became Sin for us! He saved us by HIS blood - not by our effort! God tells us we must forgive other's sin against us if we expect Him to forgive us - if you want to be free -forgive -if you want to have joy -forgive and if you want to honor God - forgive!
Forgiveness must be in the life of the Christian! If we chose not to forgive others -it will effect our relationship with The Lord!Lets forgive others so God will forgive us! Thank HIM that we have been redeemed and set free from sin! Praise GOD!
A side note: If you have ever been in trouble with a credit card company - you would discover how un-forgiven they are - I moved and forgot to give my new address to a credit card company and when they found me I owed much more then I had charged -but they wanted me to pay it all back -right or wrong I had to - I paid 10 times what I charged but to have a debt forgiven in this world - you have to pay for it - thankfully our sin debt has been paid for by JESUS - HIS forgiveness should compell us to forgive others! Forgive to be forgiven!
With CHRIST there is forgiveness of sin!
PRAYERS-PRAISES-&-PREVIEWS:

Daniel<><
