Good Morning Monday....
Thank You Father for this NEW DAY!
Today,“(we will) TRUST in You Father with all (our) hearts and lean not on (our) own UNDERSTANDING; in all (our) ways (we will) acknowledge (You), and (You) shall direct (our) paths” (Proverbs 3:5-6). May we CHOOSE to follow our FAITH TODAY! In YESHUA, JESUS CHRIST's Name. Amen!
- Forgiving Ourselves. Start With The Word.
We have all done things we may be ashamed of, especially after seeing through The Lens of Our Messiah. While we may be ashamed, feel guilty, or are saddened by whatever the self disappointing thing we have done, we must remember: Our Father Sent His Son For Just That Reason!
We have all been dejected, down, and vulnerable at some point in our lives and I am sure we have all done something so shameful, so low, that we wonder if our Salvation was lost. This is faulty thinking. Are you doubting that God Can Forgive you? Or are you doubting that God Will Forgive You? Either way... your doubting God Your Father, and it is important to remember, Nothing Is Impossible For Him And His Love Is Infinite.
Today, before we take a closer look at self forgiveness, let's take a look at what God's Word has to say about His Forgiveness and how we are supposed to forgive others. Certainly, this will be a good start the process of self forgiveness. After all, Our Father's Infallible Word Is The Beginning and The End, The Aleph And The Tav, And Our Salvation Is Found Here With Him. With that said, let's take a look at ten verses from God's Word all about forgiveness.
God Bless Everyone and have a Wonderful, Set-Apart, Forgiving Day!
The Word Of God, Where We Find Our Forgiveness:
“Purge out the old yeast, that you may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened. For indeed Messiah, our Passover, has been sacrificed in our place.”
1 Corinthians 5:7
“Therefore let’s keep the feast, not with old yeast, neither with the yeast of malice and wickedness, but we with the unleavened bread of sincerity and Truth.”
1 Corinthians 5:8
“in whom we have our redemption through His Blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His Grace,”
Ephesians 1:7

“He who conceals his sins doesn’t prosper, but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy.”
Proverbs 28:13
“My little children, I write these things to you so that you may not sin. If anyone sins, we have a Counselor with The Father, Yeshua The Messiah, The Righteous. And He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world.”
1 Yochanan (John) 2:1-2
“If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and The Truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He Is Faithful and Righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we haven’t sinned, we make Him a liar, and His Word is not in us.”
1 Yochanan (John) 1:8-10
“Forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors.”
Matthew 6:12
