EMPOWERING LIVES WITH PURPOSE:
One of the most disheartening things we can feel is when someone betrays us, especially ones so very close to us. There is no way to justify gossip, lies, slander or hurtful division. It just stinks!
God will set things in order. He promises.
“All who rage against you will be ashamed and disgraced. All who contend with you will perish and disappear.” (Isaiah 41:11)
Please release the person or people who have wounded you so deeply. I understand this is not always easy, but please do not harbor bitterness or resentment toward the offending party. Something has their soul shackled, please realize this! Just imagine… You could be the one who prays for them and asks God to set them free. Can you do this in the mighty Name of Jesus? I believe we all can!
Ask God to build the POWER in you to release your pain and show them love. I’m not asking you to do anything I haven’t done myself. I know your heart will feel better. It’s something we may have to repeat several times to really solidify what you are actually doing, but trust that it will be done in Jesus’ name!
Freedom from such pain will not only set them free with your prayers, it will set you free! As tears roll down my face when writing, I oftentimes understand it’s because of a “word” that God gives to me, which hits so very close to home, but I can rejoice in its “freedom”; praise God! My heart is grateful for the truths I’ve learned over the years, and now I can only be transparent as God’s leads, in the hopes of encouraging you while writing what God has taught me.
My outcome has presented, and the other person who has wronged me has done a 100% turnaround this past year! They apologized for the strong, bitter heart of unforgiveness that they wrongfully inflicted and held on to for over 10 years. It was a family member. It’s truly a miracle of God that this has happened, and God brought the wrong to right in the Name of Jesus.
When we always do what’s right in obedience to our Lord, even when the pain hurts beyond belief, He takes care of the issue in His time. He never stops working on our behalf when our hearts are right before Him.
This beautiful story, well, when God tells me it’s time, I may write about it one of these days.
