Forgiving God

Forgiving God

For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you (Matthew 6:14).”

It was challenging for me to embrace the Divine idea that there is only One Power and One Presence in the Universe, God, the Good, Omnipotence. I had two gods: The Good God, Jehovah, and the bad god, the devil. Jehovah received all the praise, and the devil got all the blame. When I stopped giving place to the devil in my thoughts, words, and actions, I had One Source, God (Ephesians 5:29). Without the devil to blame, I was forced to face my anger with God and ultimately learned to forgive God.

Although God had not sinned or done anything wrong, I still needed to forgive God because, in many cases, I felt that God had done me wrong. Because I felt that way, I needed to forgive God and “let go” of that erroneous idea so that I could be in an authentic and intimate relationship with God. When I forgave God for allowing situations to happen in my life, I was also able to forgive myself for my reaction to these situations and take more responsibility for my life. As I let it go, I was able to see more clearly God’s Divine Purpose for my life and realize that everything was in Divine Order.

Forgiveness is the cornerstone of any healthy relationship. It is important to build forgiveness in every relationship because, in every relationship, you will experience the four primary emotions: glad, sad, mad, and afraid. Don’t wait until someone does something to forgive them. Set your heart on forgiveness to prepare from the very start before it happens. Whether things occur intentionally or unintentionally, forgiveness is required for every person in your life, including yourself and God.

Using the Prayer Tool of Forgiving as symbolized by the vice grip pliers, forgive God for anything that happened in your past that you did not like.

  The Kingdom is About Growth (Matthew 13:24-30)   The kingdom is about growth, not condemnation, judgment, sin, abomination, transgression, or iniquity. The kingdom of God is about growth. Jesus said it is like wheat and weeds, or "tares," as some versions say. As you grow, once you plant a seed in the ground, you don’t just get what you get; you also get weeds. As you keep growing, you will outgrow any behavior, any way of being, seeing, thinking, speaking, or acting that is not like God; you will outgrow it. Stop trying to pull up the weeds and keep growing. Stop trying to put people out of your life because some of the people you think are weeds are really wheat, and some of the people you feel are wheat might not be. Just keep growing, and it will automatically separate. Jesus said the growth in the kingdom is like a mustard seed. It starts as the smallest seed, but it’s potent. So do not despise the days of small beginnings; keep growing. Don’t compare yourself to a...
  Are You a People Pleaser (Matthew 14:6) 06 February 2024   Who are you pleasing today? Some of us are people pleasers. We live our entire lives trying to please people, trying to get their approval and validation. We get pleasure out of pleasing other people, and so we do everything looking for people to be pleased with us.   Are you living your life for people, trying to please people? Some of us try to please ourselves, and we forget people. I AM    pleasing myself, and so all our lives are consumed with self-pleasure, and immediate gratification, and so we live our lives pleasing ourselves, or are you pleasing God? Are you living your life with one purpose: to please God? Are you concerned with whether or not God is pleased with you? At the end of the day, when God says well done, thou good and faithful servant, you have been faithful over a few things. I will make you rule over me. That’s what I Am living for.   I am living to please God; I desi...
  I AM a Good Tree and I Bring Forth Good Fruit (Matthew 12:3) I AM a good tree, and I bring forth good fruit. I was created that way. When God made everything, He spoke over the creation and said it was good. When He got to human beings, He said not only were we good, but we were very good. Affirm with me today: I AM a good tree because I was created that way. It doesn’t matter what anybody else says; I was created good. God said I was very good.   Good is the essence of who I AM. Because I AM a good tree, not only was I created that way, but I also continue in that way. My good is a continuation of how I was created. Because I AM a good tree and I was created that way, my way of being is good. The energy and aura that come from me that exudes from me are good because I AM a good tree. How I see people, places, and things is good because I AM a good tree. I can’t help but see the good in God and people because I was created that way, so I continue that way. My way of th...
