Forgive
My kingdom is at your feet if only you ask Me to forgive
All your trespasses and bless your walk a new life to live
Ask it in My name and whatever troubles you put aside
Your life and heart are open to Me and evil cannot reside
My will in your life will be done if you also forgive yourself
And place your hard days full of trouble upon the shelf
Where you leave your past and take up your new walk
Those who know who you were will now have something new to talk
To the heavens about, the change you received when you did forgive
Yourself and those around you for you have a new message to give
That this day is special and all those that follow will be too
My love will flow through you in all that you will do
Surrender to Jesus My Son upon His life all forgiveness lies
Look to the heavens and the grace and glory given to you to help you survive
The trespasses placed against you that you must forgive tonight
Will secure your future and remove the temptations to your delight
All evil will not have access to you now or forevermore
For you live now and forevermore in My kingdom for sure
(Mat 6:9 – 15 NIV) 9 – After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10 – Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 11 – Give us this day our daily bread. 12 – And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 13 – And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. 14 – For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
15 – But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
(Mat 9:6 NRSV) But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”— he then said to the paralytic —” Stand up, take your bed and go to your home.”
(Mark 11:25 NRSV) “Whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone; so that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses.”
(Luke 23:34 NRSV) Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing.” And they cast lots to divide his clothing.
