Day 19: FORGIVE AND BE FORGIVEN

“...FORGIVE US OUR DEBTS, AS WE FORGIVE OUR DEBTORS...”

Then I acknowledged my sin to you and did not cover up my iniquity. I said, 'I will confess my transgressions to the Lord.' And you forgave the guilt of my sin. Psalm 32:5 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:

1. What is God saying to me from this prayer time? What is standing out?
2. What is God inviting me to do in response? How can I take a small step in following Jesus in this way this week?
3. 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.
