FORGIVE US AS WE FORGIVE

 
Matthew 6:12


"And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors." NIV


"And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors." KJV


Being forgiven by our God is grace and mercy, not an automatic privilege. Do we have His mercy and grace? Without His mercy and grace, we cannot forgive others. With unforgiveness in our hearts, our prayers are hindered and God cannot pour His grace and mercy of forgiveness on us. Do we have His grace and mercy? God's forgiveness of our wrongs will not happen unless we show the grace and mercy of forgiveness to others. Are there resentments, grudges, and bitterness against others locked in our hearts? Forgiving is the key to God forgiving us. Do we have His grace and mercy of forgiveness?


Heavenly Father, we stand before You in need of Your forgiveness each and every day. Bring to our attention any unforgiveness we hold against another so that we can show grace and mercy to forgive. We cannot be holy and acceptable to You with unforgiveness in our hearts. We pray in Jesus' name, Amen.
