MFM DAILY DEVOTIONAL 22 JULY 2024 MESSAGE:
Dealing with the root of bitterness is so important that it cannot be overemphasised. At times, you may not necessarily be the recipient but the main actor.
Jesus warned Peter to be careful of temptation from satan (Luke 22:31-34). Rather than pay attention and pray it out, his overconfidence would not allow him until he actually fell for it (Luke 22:57-58, 6061). The Bible records in verse 62, “And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.”
Yes, Peter felt really bad to have betrayed his Master’s love in a trifling moment, but he did not allow that to halt his ministerial destiny. He refused to entertain bitterness; rather, he forgave himself and moved on. Jesus, our greatest example of love, also did not hold Peter’s action against him since He had earlier forewarned him. Little wonder, when Jesus came back after His resurrection, He literally handed over the work of ministry to Peter (John 21:15-19) and he joyfully took up the challenge.
Jesus did not give up on Peter, neither did Peter give up on himself. By the time we saw Peter again in Acts of the Apostles, he had become a Spirit-filled, vibrant and fire-brand Apostle who often stood up boldly before the Jewish leaders to defend the Christian faith.
Beloved, what is that supposedly unpardonable sin you have committed, especially in time past, probably during the time of ignorance? Acts 17:30 says: “Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent.” Confess and repent of your sin(s) before your Maker, receive His forgiveness and endeavour to forgive yourself.
Yes, you shouldn’t have done it but you did! Nevertheless, let go of the bitterness against yourself or against anyone whatsoever. God has not given up on you, refuse to give up on yourself either. Exchange that bitterness with love today and you will be glad you did!
