Pray With Me - Letting Go of Bitterness by Liz Polat - tangle.com

Letting Go of Bitterness

Father, life seems so unjust, so unfair. The pain of rejection is almost more than I can bear. My past realationships have ended in strife, anger, rejection, and seperation. Lord, help me to let go of all bitterness and indignation and wrath (passion, rage, bad temper) and resentment(anger, animosity). You are the One Who binds up and heals the brokenhearted. I recieveYour anointing that destroysevery yoke of bondage. I recieve emotional healing by faith, and I thank You for giving me the grace to stand firm until the process is complete. Thank You for the wise counselors. I acknowledge the Holy Spirit as my wonderful counselor. Thank You for helping me work out my salvation with fear and trembling, for it is You, Father, Who work in me to will and act according to Your good purpose. In the name of Jesus, I choose to forgive those who have wronged me. I purpose to live a life of forgiveness because You have forgiven me. With the help of the Holy Spirit, I get rid of all bitterness, rage, and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. I desire to be kind and compassionate to others, forgiving them, just as in Christ You forgave me. With the help of the Holy Spirit, I make every effort to live in peace with all men and to be holy, for I know that without holiness no one will see You, Lord. I purpose to see to it that i do not miss Your grace and that no bitter root grows up within me to cause trouble. I will watch and pray that I enter not into temptation or cause others to stumble. Thank You, Father, that You watch over Your Word to perform it and that whom the Son has set free is free indeed. I declare that I have overcome resentment and bitterness by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of my testimony. In Jesus'name, Amen.

  “Lord I pray that you set Liz free from the prison of unforgiveness. Give her a revelation about your death on the cross due to our sins, make it so real Lord in her spirit. I pray that you would help her to release all that have hurt her and shower her with your love. Father give her a new beginning. In Jesus' name Amen”

  “Lord touch Liz and touch her heart and cleanse it and make it pure allow the revelation that people are people and all of us have issues and fears and some even have no love in there heart. Show her that is why You have called her, so she can separate herself from this world and to be the example of unconditional love, that You require of us, to be an example to the lost and to offer her body as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to You..Show her Lord that forgiveness is a "feeling" and we control feelings they are not truth Your Word is Truth continue to help her to stand on all that she knows and has quoted in this prayer, Lord help her to choose and to apply Your Word to her life, not to just have knowledge of Your Word remind her, blessings from You are in our application and obedience to You and Your Word. Lord I stand together with my sister and ask that Your Spirit continue to fill her and that You make her one with You, helping her to see as You do and to feel toward the people, that are not right with You, what You feel toward them, that they are in need of the great Physician, and they are also people You have died for and seek to serve You and that LOVE covers all things and that is what people respond to..in Jesus name..I speak with such boldness because of my testimony, as one who lost all my "family" to a divorce I decided to get. For 8 yrs. My children, my parents, aunt, uncles friends did not speak to me, my son got married without me being there and still does not respond to me and my calls...I lost my job because someone decided to speak lies against me.. I was also homeless for 3 yrs and lived with a true friend sent from God. In that time I was raped for 3 days by several people, drugged and hurt very badly, but it was just my flesh..NO ONE can take my spirit because I have surrendered that to God, I can only give that willingly to whom I choose! I even forgave all those people who raped me, because Jesus loves them and died for them also..When I think of my story and see what He has done for me I KNOW I am favored, and He has never and never will leave me or forsake me. My character and my integrity will not be compromised because of a feeling that I may put into my own head..Oh no sister, I have learned it's nothing to do with me in my story, it's ALL about Him...YSIC Ann”
