Day 5: FORGIVE AND BE FORGIVEN
“…FORGIVE US OUR DEBTS, AS WE FORGIVE OUR DEBTORS…”
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.
1 John 1:9 NIV
When we turn away from our sins and receive His forgiveness, our hearts are more prepared to forgive others as well.
Ask God to check your heart and life and show you areas where you might need to ask for His forgiveness. Ask Him to forgive you and to help you forgive others. We can even choose to forgive people in advance!
— PAUSE & PRAY —
End your time with the 3 most important questions for every Jesus follower:
- What is God saying to me from this prayer time? What is standing out?
- What is God inviting me to do in response? How can I take a small step in following Jesus in this way this week?
- Who is God putting on my heart to share this with? How can I reach out to them today?
Closing Prayer
Father, help me to live this day to the full, being true to You, in every way.
Jesus, help me to give myself away to others, being kind to everyone I meet.
Spirit, help me to love the lost, proclaiming Christ in all I do and say.
Amen.
