Forgiveness is more than l=
etting go, it is also a tactic we use in the fight against evil. Paul=
tells the Corinthian Church to readmit someone back into their ranks who i=
s repentant of an act that is unknown to us. Paul says to “reaffirm y=
our love for him (v. 8)” by forgiving him. Satan uses the pain and re=
sentment of an unforgiving spirit to manipulate our lives. To forgive=
and let go takes away that power, and we “outwit” the deceiver as a result=
. Remember Satan can’t control what you don’t hold onto. Reaffi=
rm the love that you have in your heart today, and practice forgiveness…
O God, I let =
go of all resentments and bitterness stored up in my heart. Wash me clean. =
Forgive me for all the condemning judgements I have made. Give me a new and=
right spirit that will help enable me to hate sin but look with Your compa=
