What Holds You Back From Being The Leader God Calls You To Be? Could It Be Unforgiveness?

“Before we were even born, he gave us our destiny; that we would fulfill the plan of God who always accomplishes every purpose and plan in his heart.” - Ephesians 1:11 TPT

“Righteousness and Justice are the foundation of Your throne…” - Psalm 89:14`

“Blessed are the peacemakers…” - Matthew 5:9

“So if you are presenting a sacrifice at the altar in the Temple and you suddenly remember that someone has something against you, leave your sacrifice there at the altar. Go and be reconciled to that person. Then come and offer your sacrifice to God.” - Matthew 5:20-23

Key Takeaways:

Did you know that God moves at the speed of relationship?

Righteousness = Being “right with God and therefore committed to putting right all other relationships in life.”

Did you know that your refusal to be “righteous” can be a problem in your own relationship with God?

You can’t control other people – only you. But if you’re unwilling to forgive someone – you may be your own worst enemy. Your refusal to forgive may be a ball and chain to your being a success in God’s view.

Unforgiveness is the only poison YOU drink hoping the other guy will die!

Your next step:

First thing to remember – is that there is always a choice to be made:
1. Who do I want to be?
2. God sent us to be powerful agents of transformative change. Do I choose to change the world – or just look like it?
Is there anyone you cannot stand the thought of? That’s probably the person you need to be praying for. Ask God, if possible, to reconcile that relationship.
Go before God and ask Him to help you be righteous.
