TODAY’S TURNING POINT WITH DR. DAVID JEREMIAH 16 SEPTEMBER 2025 DAILY DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE
Read David Jeremiah Daily Devotional – 16th September 2025, Tuesday Turning Point Devotional Message
TOPIC: How to Forget
And Joseph gave [his brothers] carts, according to the command of Pharaoh, and he gave them provisions for the journey. – Genesis 45:21
Recommended Reading: Ephesians 4:32
Joseph could have been a bitter man based on all the things that had been done to him—especially by his brothers. But when he was reunited with them, he not only forgave them, but he also acted as if they had never harmed him in the first place. And that is the evidence for forgiving and forgetting—acting as if the harm had never occurred. When it came time to bring his father’s family from Canaan to Egypt, he did everything possible to meet their needs. He treated his brothers as if they had never done anything ill towards him. We may never literally forget an injury done to us, but if we have truly forgiven, we will act as if it never occurred.
If there is someone you have forgiven but not forgotten, ask God for grace to act as if the injury had never happened.
God does not wish us to remember what He is willing to forget.
