(PART 1)

Forgiving our own past mistakes sometimes proves harder than forgiving the sins of others. However, Jesus’ blood cleanses us, and we need to accept His provision.

READ: John 21:4-17; Rom. 8:1-4; Eph. 4:31-32; Phil. 3:7-16; 1 Thess. 5:9-11; 1 John 1:8-9.
HEART ISSUE: What past failures are you still holding onto? What is inhibiting you from receiving God’s grace?
PRAYER FOCUS: Father, forgive me for keeping a record of my own wrongs. I give it to You now and choose to trust Jesus’ sacrifice as sufficient to set me free. Amen.

(PART 2)


Many women struggle with self-hatred. When we reject ourselves, we open a door to the enemy who torments us with a false sense of condemnation.

READ: Gen. 4:2-7; Lev. 19:18; Ps. 41:11-12; Ps. 139:14-18; 2 Tim. 1:7; 1 John 4:16-19.
HEART ISSUE: In what ways do you wish you were different? Have you made peace with who God made you to be?
PRAYER FOCUS: Father, thank You for assuring me I am wonderfully made. Show me Your purpose for my life and help me to love myself as You love me. Amen.
