You live in a day when I do not want you to be ignorant of Satan's devices. One of his devices is to cause you not to forgive. Paul wrote this: "To whom you forgive any thing, I forgive also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ; Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices."
When you refuse to forgive someone, you are very vulnerable to Satan. He is able to develop within you a root of bitterness. When that root of bitterness grows, it will defile not only you, but also all those around you.
I exhort you to forgive others as I have forgiven them. This does not justify what they have done to you or release them from judgment. Forgiveness puts you in a position to receive the grace that I want to daily give you. If you are having trouble forgiving someone, ask Me to help you, and I will.
2 CORINTHIANS 2:20-11; HEBREWS 12:15
