TOPIC: The Power Of Forgiveness (Seeds Of Destiny 7 September 2025)

SCRIPTURE: But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses. Mark 11:26

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The release of the offender is the release of the offended.

Seeds Of Destiny For Today 2025 MESSAGE:

We live in a world of offences. That is why the scripture makes it abundantly clear that for as long as you are in this world, offences must come (Matthew 18:7). The only person who is not offended is the person in the mortuary or grave.

No wonder, it has been said that to err is human. So human beings must permanently err and offend. The first thing to note is that offences must come. The second thing to note is that offence is a satanic trap for destruction and damnation.

That is why it is crucial to deal with the issue of unforgiveness. Today, we shall be looking at some of the negative consequences of offence and the power of forgiveness.

Now, when offences are not forgiven, what are the consequences?

  1. Iniquity remains unforgiven where there is unforgiveness (Mark 11:25-26). Until you have forgiven your offender, you have not been forgiven your own offences. Whatever makes you to hold the sins of other people against them makes God to hold your own sins against you.
  2. Access to God in prayer is hindered by unforgiveness. (Mark 11:25). Unforgiveness blocks people’s access to God.
  3. Access to grace is hindered by unforgiveness (Hebrews 12:14). And it is grace that is the reason for ease in the race of life. Where grace is removed, struggle is established.
  4. Bitterness and unforgiveness trouble the system (Hebrews 12:14). Bitterness or unforgiveness is a poison that troubles the system of man. It gives access to afflictions.
  5. Unforgiveness and bitterness defile the spirit of man (Hebrews 12:14). So, a person who is bitter and unforgiving is moving about with a spirit that is defiled.
    Now, forgiveness on the other hand is pregnant with power.

What is the power of forgiveness?

  1. The release of both the offender and the offended: The release of the offender is the release of the offended. When you release the one who offended you, no devil can succeed in holding you. For example, the captivity of Job turned when he prayed for his friends (Job 42:10).
  2. The restoration of the offended: The release of the offender through forgiveness is the restoration of the offended (Job 42:10). Release is key to restoration.
  3. The Presence and Power of God: The Presence, power and working of the Almighty are activated by the action of forgiveness. For instance, God stepped into action, the moment Job forgave his offenders (friends) and prayed for them. You will never be able to know what it means to feel the power of God in your life if you harbour bitterness and unforgiveness.
  4. The Amplification of the power of prayer: The power of prayer is amplified by the action of forgiveness. Prayer becomes more forceful, and resultful when you forgive.
  5. The Guarantee of Eternity: Eternity is guaranteed by the action of forgiveness provided a Godly, holy and upright Christian living is in place.

Remember this: The release of the offender is the release of the offended.

ASSIGNMENT (S):

  1. Release from your heart, those who offended you.
  2. Ask for grace to forgive when you find it difficult to do so.
  3. Pray for those who hurt you.

PRAYER: Lord, I receive grace to forgive my offenders. Help me to guard my heart against the spirit of bitterness, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
