Take Your Life Back - PRINCIPLES 1-3


In each of the incidents which occured in my life I choose to forgive and relinquish my choice to nuture any spirits which affected my relationship with Jesus and aide in my complete restoration.

Bearing with one aother, and forgiving one another, if any have a compliant against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you must also do. (Col. 3:13).

Herei, are the principles you can practice to take your life back and be healed.

  1. Acknowledge how you feel - Our feelings can be fragile and when we are hurt our emotions have us go haywire. This is the prime time when we should not allow our emotions to control our reactions. Emotions are irrational and cannot be trusted. Now, it's imperative to recognize how you feel and admit your true feelings. It's alright if you become angry, mad, upset, vexed, outraged, etc; as long as you don not act out those feelings in an unappropiate or unlawful manner. Ephesiabns 4:32 states; "When anger, do not sin". Refuse to seek revenge as a means to make the offender pay.

  2. Choose to forgive- The world we dwell in is plagued with sin and this guarantees whether intentionally or unitentionally, you will suffer some type of harm. You have a choice to forgive or entertain the fruit of un-forgiveness. This doesn't mean to act as though nothing happened or to ignore that you have been wounded. You forgive for you, setting an example for the person(s) whom hurt you. In order to be healed and set free, the wrong done to you must be cancelled. Find a means to forgive, whether through a letter, email, text message or phone call. Still be sincere and compassionate when you make the intent to forgive. If you refuse to forgive, you give thm power over your life. No human has the right to have that kind of control over you!

  3. Forgive yourself - This was not your fault! You're not reaping what you sowed. Whether you got involved with the wrong person, or ignored major warnings, etc; you gave of yourself unselfishly and you definitely didn't deserve being treated in such an unhumanly manner.

Again, in my own personal experiences and in yours, we must realize that we didn't turn this individual into a wreckage soul overwhelmed with anger and bitterness. They were shattered before we meet them. Despite what happened to them to make them the way thy are, we all have choices to either be loving and kind or mean and hateful. They choose not to change their lifestyle. Therefore, stop beating yourself up, and forgive yourself.

Do you agree or disagree that forgiveness is the best redemy to use to take your life back and be healed? Why or why not?
