IN JESUS NAME I FORGIVE AND I FORGET EVERYTHING FROM EVERYBODY AND FROM MYSELF

“This term above is healing for the soul and body.”

“When a person declares out loud those words, it is making a revelation of factual declaration to the spirit realm, of them not harbouring any bitterness, resentments or any unforgiveness towards themselves or anybody for the wrongs done to them on account of ‘unintentional’ sins (Leviticus 4:1-2). These sins are what people suffer all their lives for, like a ball and chain around their legs, impeding their freedom to walk in God’s favours of freedom to receive and freedom to give His pardon to all for their wrong doings by stating, “In Jesus name, I forgive and I forget everything from myself and everybody for everything past and for the present.” This saying is the two-edged sword of God’s word in progress as Jesus spoke also from the cross “Father forgive them for they know not what they say and do.” This term must be reapplied in our own lives, when we choose to forgive and forget ourselves and others wrongs to us, and the Father then moves Heaven and Earth to forgive and to set all the captives free as is stated in the Lord’s Prayer, which is the only prayer Jesus ever taught – but is profound and proficient in all aspects of life."

“Matthew 6:12 “Forgive us the wrongs we have done, as we forgive the wrongs that others have done to us”, which leads us now to Psalm 103:12 “As far as the east is from the west, so far does He remove our sins from us." If we can take a note from herewith those passages which God has given us – as healing from ourselves and others because God specifically explains after the verses of The Lord’s Prayer in Matthew 6:14 – as a warning, if you forgive others the wrongs they have done to you, your Father in Heaven will also forgive you.”

“So with this understanding, let’s claim our free gift from God, of His beloved Son’s sacrifice for our sins, by the forgiveness of Jesus’ shed blood at Calvary and say out daily, “In Jesus name I forgive and I forget everything from myself and everybody for everything past and for the present," and watch your healing of old ailments and new be wiped away by the shed blood of Jesus, and to choose to forget as God has all our sins, when we choose to forgive others, and He will take over to bless and heal all the wrongs from our lives with wholeness of mind and wholeness of body.”

“PS When God brings to mind any persons or things they have done to us – just say, "In Jesus name, I forgive and I forget name of person/s for everything past and for the present.”

“Also this applies to our memories of any mistakes we ourselves have done, in Jesus name I forgive and I forget everything I did to name/s past and for the present.”

“Amen! Praise God, thank you!”

The Power of Prayer

Where 2 or more stand in agreement on anything that they so desire, I will make it happen for them. They must be of one accord, in order that My perfect will can be done through them. Together, and in My name, they shall make their prayer requests known and I shall deliver it to them from the wings of Heaven, just as promised. It is written, Matthew 18:19-20 NKJV “Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.”

The Bible says that whatever we ask for in Jesus name shall be given to us. John 14:13 -14 NKJV “And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My name, I will do it.” Be sure to ask because if we don’t ask for what we want, things tend to happen by default, and we may then miss out on what we want.

Of course, we must ask according to God’s will for us, and not according to lusts and desires of the flesh that do not line up with what God wants for us. James 4:1-3 NKJV “Where do wars and fights come from among you? Do they not come from your desires for pleasure that war in your members? You lust and do not have. You murder and covet and cannot obtain. You fight and war. Yet you do not have because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures.”

So what if we don’t know exactly how or what to pray for, so that we are in line with God’s will? Jesus tells us how to pray. Matthew 6:9-13 NKJV “In this manner, therefore pray:

Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
Your kingdom come.
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
As we forgive our debtors.
And do not lead us into temptation,
But deliver us from the evil one.
For Yours is the kingdom and
the power and the glory forever. Amen.”

Matthew 6:14-15 “For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.”

The Bible also tells us that we should pray without ceasing, having all the faith that whatever we ask for shall be given to us, and we are to give thanks and be content in our current situations. This way, when the Father sees your heart, that you appreciate all He has given you already, He will reward you accordingly. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 NKJV “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”

God knows what we need before we even ask Him. All we need to do is ask, and to have the faith that whatever we ask for in faith, will be given to us. God loves you, and this is His will for you. 1 John 5:15 NKJV “And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.”

PS Matthew 6:5-8 NKJV “And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words. Therefore do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him.” Amen!

All glory as always for these words goes to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.

Ripe For Harvest

When you see the truth for what it is one comes to a certain understanding. The one thing which settles all disputes is the love of God. Arguments have a way of undermining the most beneficial of friendships. They can reap havoc in the most solid of marriages. When we see and understand this, we can do something about it. Put the love of God into any situation and see for yourself the magic begin!

I say magic because what really occurs between a couple that has the love of God between them, is to say the least, miraculous! It can turn a marriage, a friendship, a business partnership, or even a partnership of any kind into a well-watered garden, producing the ripest of fruits for harvest!

James 3:17-18 says “But the wisdom from above is pure first of all; it is also peaceful, gentle, and friendly; it is full of compassion and produces a harvest of good deeds; it is free from prejudice and hypocrisy. And goodness is the harvest that is produced from the seeds the peacemakers plant in peace.”

Peace of mind is what you can achieve when you allow the love of God into your hearts. He will deliver you from all uncertainty while you wait quietly in His presence. May the love of God fill all the aches and hurts in your hearts! I say this to you as a prayer that has just come down from the Heavens. Peace, love and enlightenment can all be yours. It is only a stone’s throw away now. Turn your hearts and minds to God and watch for the ripening. A fresh start is available for all!

1 John 4:16 says “God is love, and those who live in love live in union with God and God lives in union with them.” One must understand that from chaos and confusion, comes peace when you hand over your life to God. Colossians 3:15 NKJV says “And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.”

Allow God to transport you to a place where there is no hurt or angst. Let Him be the one to soothe your hearts and minds. Talk to God. Tell Him how you are feeling. Ask His forgiveness. He is gentle and kind and will show mercy to all who ask. Please find within you, the courage to call upon Him – you will not be disappointed! Deuteronomy 31:6 NKJV says “Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them, for the LORD your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.”

When I say that you are going to be filled with love and joy, remember His final words to you as he was dying on the cross. John 19:30 NKJV “It is finished.” Because of His finished work on the cross, we are now all free to live the joyous and wonderful lives filled with the blessings that God intended for us right from the beginning. Be free and enjoy your new life in Christ! Amen.

PS Psalm 103:8 says “The LORD is merciful and loving, slow to become angry and full of constant love.” Amen.

All glory goes to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit whom I believe as always have directed me with these words today. Amen.

Christianity In Full Swing

Regardless of our commitment to ‘the faith’, at times we need to take a look at how we conduct ourselves as Christians. There is a certain requirement as Christians, and that is to love. Sounds basic doesn’t it? Well, sometimes with all the trials in life, we allow ourselves to get bogged down with day to day living and responsibilities. If we are to become fully-fledged Christians, then we are to commit ourselves fully to this path. We must aim to walk as Jesus did.

We must demonstrate to others what the walk of faith is all about. They must see for themselves all the good reasons why they should explore a relationship with the Lord and become Christians themselves. The key here is to set the example of how one should live in union with Jesus. The key is Jesus! Colossians 2:2-3 says “I do this in order that they may be filled with courage and may be drawn together in love, and so have the full wealth of assurance which true understanding brings. In this way they will know God’s secret, which is Christ himself. He is the key that opens all the hidden treasures of God’s wisdom and knowledge.”

When we see how this works, we will have gained all the knowledge necessary on how to create a life worth living in harmony with the gospel. We will at times come into contact with those who are living a life less ordinary. It is written in Colossians 3:12-14 “You are the people of God; he loved you and chose you for his own. So then, you must clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Be tolerant with one another and forgive one another whenever any of you has a complaint against someone else. You must forgive one another just as the Lord has forgiven you. And to all these qualities add love, which binds all things together in perfect unity.”

God wants us to be a demonstration of what Christianity is really about. It requires much effort on your part to remain firm and committed to the truth. There are many distractions that are part of living here on Earth, that have a way of redirecting our attention elsewhere.

We need to constantly remember that Jesus lives within us, and we must refocus our attention back to Him. With all the noise and clutter that act as constant intrusions, it is sometimes quite challenging to do this. We must train ourselves to live in close communion with the Lord. The more we practice this, the easier it becomes. We find ourselves living more closely with Him, and coming to Him with all of our decisions and choices. Colossians 3:15-17 says “The peace that Christ gives is to guide you in the decisions you make; for it is to this peace that God has called you together in the one body. And be thankful. Christ’s message in all its richness must live in your hearts. Teach and instruct one another with all wisdom. Sing psalms, hymns and sacred songs; sing to God with thanksgiving in your hearts. Everything you do or say, then, should be done in the name of the Lord Jesus, as you give thanks through him to God the Father. Amen.

PS Colossians 2:6-7 says “Since you have accepted Christ Jesus as Lord, live in union with him. Keep your roots deep in him, build your lives on him, and become stronger in your faith, as you were taught. And be filled with thanksgiving.” Amen.

All glory goes to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit whom I believe as always have guided me with these words. Amen.

Forgiveness Of Sins

When praying in the mighty name of Jesus, we must always ask for the forgiveness of our sins. This opens the door to many opportunities for us to come to terms with whatever is going on in our lives. It gives us the opportunity to understand that many of our difficulties have come upon us as a result of sin. Be that as it may, the Lord is always willing to forgive us and wipe the slate clean.

Do not take this lightly my friends, because what it means for us is total pardon for every transgression that we have ever committed! The Lord is our friend and saviour and He is willing and able to do this for us as we live according to His word; and because of His great love and mercy for all of mankind.

It is written in Hebrews 10:17 “I will not remember their sins and evil deeds any longer.” This means that we can approach God with a sure heart, knowing and trusting that we have indeed been purified from all of our sins. He will not remember them anymore! Wow! This is available to us today all because of what Jesus did for us on the cross.

He died so that we may be set free from sins. It says in Romans 3:24-25 “24 But by the free gift of God’s grace all are put right with him through Christ Jesus, who sets them free. 25 God offered him, so that by his blood he should become the means by which people’s sins are forgiven through their faith in him.” God’s love and forgiveness for us is such that we may become free of all the restraints of sin and the effects it can have on our lives.

If we only want goodness in our lives then we must face whatever is hindering us in our walk, and then submit it to the Lord. He will cover it with His blood and lay it at the foot of the cross. From this, we become sanctified thus enabling us to walk unhindered on the path that God has chosen for us. It is written in Romans 4:7-8 7 “Happy are those whose wrongs are forgiven, whose sins are pardoned! 8 Happy is the person whose sins the Lord will not keep account of!”

There are many who believe that we must not live by faith, and that we should only act upon what we see in the cold light of day. This is apparent in many lives of those who do not consider themselves worthy to receive God’s love and mercy. This is unfortunate for them as they will miss out on their true inheritance.

We are all worthy to receive God’s love, and it is given to us all freely. How? By our faith in the one who loves and protects us. Romans 8:31 says “If God is for us, who can be against us?” We know that God is for us by the many blessings we have already received. We know that God is for us by giving us the gift of His precious Son Jesus. And we know that God is for us by the great love and mercy He offers His people.

How do we obtain His mercy? By having faith in the one that supports us in our time of need. By trusting and believing in His written word and in all of His promises given to us in the Bible. We must be confident of His love for us and go to Him with all our prayers and requests. He knows what we need before we even ask Him. He knows you so intimately that He even knows how many hairs are on your head!

It is written in Hebrews 4:16 NKJV “Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” He wants an intimate relationship with His children and He wants us to come to Him in our time of need, just like a child will go to their Earthly parents for help, love and support. So, when you do pray to your Father in Heaven, ask Him for forgiveness of your sins, and you will be able to step foot upon the path to life.....Amen.

All glory goes to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit whom I believe as always, have gifted me with these words today. Amen

PS Jesus tells us that we must ask our Father in heaven to forgive our sins in the famous ‘Lord’s Prayer’ that is prayed in churches and homes everywhere across the globe today. Matthew 6:12 NLT “and forgive us our sins as we have forgiven those who sin against us.” Amen.

The Virtues of Kindness and a Sincere Heart

Charity begins in the home. See to it that you are always on the ready to provide for the needs of your family, be it food on the table, a loving welcome, kindness, a sincere attitude of goodwill, and a preparedness to give to others when the need arises. Virtually all your problems will melt away when you give of yourself unconditionally in the home. This is God's will for you.

He will make sure that you will be rewarded many times over for the display of unconditional love towards those you love. You must also show love, kindness and consideration to your enemies, especially to your enemies. It is written in Matthew 5:44 "But now I tell you: love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you." This way, your Father in Heaven is able to work miracles through you.

If this is how we conduct ourselves around others, they will see for themselves the love of God through us. It does not matter what you say to people so much, it matters more what you do and how you behave towards others.

Lead by example. Loving them when they don't deserve it is love exemplified. They will come to understand what true Christianity is all about. It is written in 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 "Love is patient and kind; it is not jealous or conceited or proud; love is not ill-mannered or selfish or irritable; love does not keep a record of wrongs; love is not happy with evil, but is happy with the truth. Love never gives up; and its faith, hope, and patience never fail."

Be alert for opportunities to show people that you are willing to give them the time of day. This is how God's love is demonstrated through you. Never miss an opportunity. Lives are transformed this way. Christian faith is love demonstrated. When others see you for who you are in Christ, they will all want a part of it.

Teach them from a humble heart what it means to truly love one another. Ephesians 4:2 says "Be always humble, gentle, and patient. Show your love by being tolerant with one another." Honour others. We do this by showing them respect and forgiveness. It is written in Matthew 6:12 NLT "and forgive us our sins, as we have forgiven those who sin against us." In fact, this is explained further in verse 14, "If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you."

How can we expect our Father in heaven to forgive us if we are harbouring judgement and blame in our hearts for the wrongs that have been done to us. We must cultivate an attitude of forgiveness and love at all times. When our Father in heaven sees this, He is able then to grant the wonderful opportunities and events He has planned for us.

We will be shown mercy and forgiveness for all the wrongs we have committted, and we will become a blessing to others. It is written in the famous 'Sermon On The Mount' in Matthew 5:7 "Happy are those who are merciful to others; God will be merciful to them!" So, not only will we be happy as promised, but we will be shown God's mercy. Let's face it, we could all do with a bit of mercy couldn't we? Amen.

PS  In the Bible is says that our only obligation is to love one another, and that by doing so we have obeyed God's Law. Romans 13:10 states "If you love others, you will never do them wrong; to love, then, is to obey the whole Law." 


Glory be to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit whom I believe have gifted me with these words for you today. Amen.
