If the past is the past and its over and done with then why do we still dwell on the things of yesterday. If you agree then consider yourself a perfect candidate for a lesson on forgiveness.
Because of my poor choices in the past, I’ve lost my vision, dignity, my identity, my confidence, my joy and my piece of mind. My plans, dreams and hopes were lost. I was carrying the weight of my sins for years. Though I was saved and born again in 2015, I’m still learning to really understand & comprehend what it means to be forgiven.

Everyday I am constantly renewing my mind in the word of God. But how did I learn to do that? I realized that I couldn’t renew my mind until I accepted responsibility for my poor choices. I had to ask myself, how do I receive forgiveness? How will I know I am forgiven? How do I get right with the people I’ve hurt? How can I get healed from the wounds I still have from my past? These are questions I’ve had for years.
After I accepted my responsibility for my past mistakes, I humbled myself in my quiet time and asked God for forgiveness of my sins. I then asked him to cleanse me from my sins and asked the Lord for a pure heart and to renew my spirit. I prayed in Jesus Name and shouted “ AMEN!”
I practice acceptance and forgiveness every day. In fact, above my kitchen table I have a prayer that I read every day. It really helps when you speak life into existence. One thing many of us have in common is that we hold the weight of the world on our shoulders. To walk around with past baggage is not the plan of the Most High but it is up to you to ask for your healing.
We cannot let the enemy steal one more second of our time, our dreams and our happiness. So yes ! Rebuke him in the name of Jesus! We’re going to stand firm knowing that we are forgiven and healed in the name of Jesus! Amen!
We got to start somewhere. If you’re somebody who has fallen away and want to know Jesus again or if you’re someone who has never known Jesus and wants to know him say this simple prayer with me!
“Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I look forward to this fresh start. In Jesus name, Amen!
Thank you for reading. God bless you!! Now GO and be Healed!
