it's time to pray.

We need to pray like we’ve never prayed before.

Listen to today’s devotional
Walk In The Truth

Luke 23:34. Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, they don't know what they do."

I once met a missionary who had served for almost three decades in a war-torn country. He came home with certificates, medals, and accolades, but he ended up stuck in his basement and wouldn't come out. He had had a church wounding from almost 40 years earlier, and he had never forgiven the people who had done it. He knew what to do and would not do it. He had covered it all with activity, but eventually the bitterness came to the surface and ruined what should have been wonderful years.

You and I represent a kingdom of forgiveness and the One who went to a cross so that we could be forgiven. It is a kingdom that we are called not just to be ambassadors of forgiveness, but we're called to forgive ourselves. If there's somebody that you need to forgive, don't let bitterness steal your inheritance.

It's time to pray.
