Forgive and Be Renewed (9.1.20)

My Dear Child,
In order for you to find that joy again, and in order for you to see the road ahead of you clearly; you must break through the walls that you've built around your heart. 

This is a new season, and it is My Desire for you to let 'the pain of the past' - go.  I Know, most of it was not fair.  However, it happened.  Now it is over.  And so you must move on.

I Saw what happened. 
I Was there when you were hurt. 
I Was there when you were rejected,
     but most importantly..... 
I Was there to bring you through it. 

Now, I Am asking you to release those painful memories.  For they are only stumbling blocks in your way.  And they are holding you back from the many blessings ahead.

Do not allow the words or deeds of others to destroy you, or hinder your walk with Me.

Do not hold onto the pain and hurt. 
Do not bring what can’t bless you, into your future. 
Do not let the enemy keep you bound behind those walls.
Break free of them right now.  

Let go of the hurt, and forgive.  Yes, I Want you to forgive those who have not cared for you.

Forgive those who have left you alone,
     in your time of need. 
Forgive so you can be released from
     the stronghold they've held over your life. 
Forgive and allow Me to reach in and
     heal those wounds.
Forgive and let Me do a new work in you. 

Allow Me to wipe away your tears, and open your eyes; so that you can see clearly the new road ahead of you.  This new road ahead is filled with excitement; it is filled with passion; and it is filled with My Joy. 

Now, trust in Me.
Believe in Me.
And pick up your sword, afresh. 

Lift your head up; shake off the ashes that cover you; break down those walls that bind you; and enter into this new season renewed, refreshed and relentless. 

For it is My Desire that you receive abundant blessings, that you walk in your life's purpose and that you live peacefully with everyone.

Read and Meditate on God's Word

Mark 11:25-26 - And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.

Ephesians 4:31-32 - Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:  And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as GOD for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.  

Colossians 3:10 - And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:

Colossians 3:12-13 - Put on therefore, as the elect of GOD, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
