POWER OF FORGIVENESS IDENTIFIED MARK OF SALVATION

THEME SCRIPTURE: THEN CAME PETER TO HIM AND SAID LORD,HOW OFT SHALL MY BROTHER SIN AGAINST ME,AND I FORGIVE HIM?TILL SEVEN TIMES? JESUS SAITH UNTO HIM I SAY NOT UNTO THEE ,UNTIL SEVEN TIMES;BUT  UNTIL SEVENTY TIMES SEVEN(MATTHEW 18:21-22).
             Forgiveness is an identified mark of salvation; God initiated it. In the book of Luke 23:34 Jesus Christ our savior makes a remarkable approach towards the work of our salvation,On the way to the cross, at the point of torment, beating and severe suffering He said; Father, forgive them for they know not what they do.
       How do you react to trespasses? Pain, sorrow, wrong accusation, as a Christian and child of God are you quick to forgive? Discharge, forget, and move on. If you identify yourself with God and the works of His Spirit; then forgiveness will mean a lot to you, unforgiveness is the work of the flesh and a very dangerous tool of unrighteousness and destruction In the hand of the devil. You cannot be friend with the devil and his work and pray to an Holy, ever Righteous God, water and fire can never be friend.
                         So many prayers, supplication are unanswered as a result of these tool of destruction. In the book of Matthew 18: 15 – 35 Jesus laid several emphasis on forgiveness in so much that our prayer, the use of authority and power, open heaven and presence of God depend on it. In verses 15- 17 Lord encourage us to make several effort to ensure scores are settled between us and our offender.
A man who find it difficult to forgive and forget, cannot command  the heaven and earth to function on its behalf, in verses 18 the bible says verily I say unto you, whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven and whatsoever ye loose on earth shall be loose in heaven. The promise, power and authority of this word can only be activated with forgiveness and only a person with forgiving heart can have access to it. Forgiveness is synonymous to power, authority, answered prayer, healing, blessing, etc. You cannot bind neither can you lose anything  with a grudge in your heart, Salvation and redemption is Inimical to unforgiveness.
The Lord Himself who ask us to forgive; forgave us and never remember again, So many Children of God has failed at the altar of forgiveness, they find it difficult to let go, this is not only dangerous to faith, prayer, blessing, it can hinder our eternal life in the Kingdom of God. So many homes, family, marriage, etc are not working as a result of unforgiveness, the eyes of the Lord is closed against people found in the act.
There are so many gifts, sacrifices, seed, offering that are not acceptable by the Lord, as a result of unforgiveness,in the book of Matthew 5:23-24. The Lord emphasised how essential forgiveness is connected to gift, offering, sacrifices, seed etc we bring to the altar of the most high God. The bible says if thou bring thy gift to the altar and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee; leave there thy gift  before the altar and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother and then come and offer thy gift. This is a great revelation from the word of God. Forgiveness have vital role to play in our Christian faith and life as a Christian. Heaven can be closed, prayer can be unanswered, our sacrifices can be in vain, we will not experience the presence of God, and even our faith will not work as a result of unforgiveness.
Your healing, blessing, breakthrough, progress, elevation is waiting for your obedient to the word of God, our father is a righteous judge, he does not joke with forgiveness of sin, He sacrifice His only begotten son to have your sin erased, the bible say we are before him justified, he want you  to do the same to your offenders , in the book of Matthew 18:21-22 Peter ask Jesus how many times can a sin be forgiven the Lord told him seventy times seven, This is synonymous to the fact that you can never be offended, how on earth will someone offend you four hundred and ninety times in a day.The Lord only avenge the weak people if you want God to vindicate you, provide for you, bless you, reside with you, perform sign and wonders through you, you must carry a forgiven heart, the unforgiving spirit is a tool of destruction don’t be deceive by the devil go down on your knee and pray for your offenders. The lord has forgiven you and he his waiting for you to do the same to avoid the danger of losing all; the battle, the blessing, breakthrough and even your eternal life.
