Mark 11:25
Jesus said, ” When you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive them, that your Heavenly Father may also forgive your sins.
“But if you do not forgive, neither will Your Heavenly forgive you your sins.”
Devotion.
In the Lord’s prayer in Matthew 6:12, Jesus teaches us to pray.
” Forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.”
Jesus shed His precious holy blood for our salvation, and He will forgive us of every sin, iniquity and transgressions.
We also have to forgive anyone who have done us wrong, as Jesus has forgiven us our sins.
So ask Jesus to help you to forgive others and He will indeed help you to be forgiving.
When we forgive others, this is pleasing to God.
Prayer (for you)
Heavenly Father,
You are Holy, Righteous, Merciful, Compassionate, Good, Gracious, Patient and of tender mercies to us.
I give You thanks and praise for Your Plan of Salvation to save to the uttermost everyone who comes to You seeking to be saved..
Lord Jesus, thank You for Your shed blood on Calvary’s cross to save and redeem me from sin.
Please forgive me of every sin, iniquity and transgression and made me clean in Your Sight.
O Lord Jesus, I need Your help to forgive those who have transgress ( done wrong) against me in anyway.
O Lord, I want to live a holy, godly life, and be pleasing to You in all my ways.
Looking to You, Lord Jesus, the One Who has shed Your precious blood for my forgiveness and redemption.
So Lord, I forgive anyone who has ever done me wrong, and I ask You to help me to move on, and let it go.
Help me to not let anything or anyone stand in my way of being part of the family of God, and receiving the gift of eternal life, through Your great sacrifice of love for me.
I love You, and I thank You for Your Infinite love and amazing grace.
In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
Hymn.
” Forgive our sins as we forgive.”
You taught us Lord, to pray.
But You alone can grant us grace.
To live the words we say.
2.
How can Your pardon reach and bless.
The unforgiving heart.
That broods on wrongs and will not let.
Old bitterness depart.
3.
In blazing light Your cross reveals.
The truth we dimly knew.
How trifling other’s debts to us.
How great our debt to You.
4.
Lord, cleanse the depths within our souls.
And bid resentment cease.
Then, by Your mercy reconciled.
Our lives will spread Your peace.
Praise the Lord!
