SICK? CHECK FOR UNFORGIVENESS

And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.
Matthew 18:34 (KJV)

In Matthew 18:21-35, an interesting discussion with Yahushua and his disciples ensued. It started by Apostle Peter asking Yahushua, ‘how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?’ (vs 21). The Lord Yahushua answered him ‘I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.’ (vs 22). He then went ahead to tell them that the kingdom of heaven is likened unto a certain king, which was settling accounts with his servants. One was brought to him who owed him 10,000 talents and as he did not have anything to pay his debt, the king commanded that he, his wife, children and all that he had be sold and debt recovered. This servant fell down and worshipped this king saying “lord have patience with me, and I will pay you all.”(vs 26). The lord of that servant was moved with compassion and loosed him and forgave him the debt. But this same servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him a 100 pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying “Pay me that you owe.” His fellow servant fell down at his feet begging him saying, “Have patience with me, and I will pay you all.” but he wouldn’t be persuaded but went and cast him into prison till he should pay the debt. When his fellow servants saw what was done, they were very sad and came and told their lord. Then his lord sent for him and said “You evil servant; I forgave you all that debt because you begged me, should you not have had compassion on your fellow servant even as I had on you?” His lord was angry and delivered him to the tormentors till he should pay all that he owed him. The Lord Yahushua concluded this story by saying, ‘So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.’(vs 35).

Notice that this servant’s unwillingness to forgive, secured him being delivered into the hands of tormentors. You can be sure that sickness and disease are one of those tormentors that is released upon the presence of unforgiveness. This is very critical. When you are attacked by sickness, you must check if there is any unforgiveness in your heart. Is there anybody that you have not forgiven. Is there anybody that you are still holding in your heart. The things he/she did to you is so big that you cannot let go. That unforgiveness qualifies you to be visited by tormentors. You forgive not for the benefit of the offender but for your own benefit. That is why you should not be waiting for someone to come and apologize before you forgive. Be prepared to forgive even if they are unwilling to apologize. Offer what we call “advance forgiveness”. It is for your good beloved to live in that way.

REMEMBER: Unforgiveness revokes the forgiven already given to you.

PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your Word to me today. I receive grace to forgive anyone that has sinned against me and to live in advance forgiveness from today in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

PROPHETIC RELEASE: Receive grace to forgive today and I decree every tormentor operating in your life checked back to hell now in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
