Here’s an interesting nibble of wisdom that I wanted to share for those who have eyes to see. Apply all of this to your life and you will produce much seed bearing fruit that will multiply in abundance. All Glory To The Most High!
May The LORD extend His Grace and Love upon everyone who reads these words, for the sake of their neighbor. B’Shem Yeshua HaMashiach- Amen! (In Jesus Christ’s Name, AMEN)
“Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?
Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until SEVENTY TIMES SEVEN.” - Matthew 18:21-22
Here’s the significance of
SEVENTY TIMES SEVEN
70 x 7 = 490
“Tamim” - ( תמים )
Blameless / Perfect / Complete
Numeric Value = 490
“Thou shalt be perfect ( תמים ) with the LORD thy God.” - Deuteronomy 18:13
תמים תהיה עם יהוה אלהיך
“Tamim Tiyeh Eem Y’Hovah Elohecha”
The best I can see, Yeshua is saying that we should forgive others always and then we will be Blameless before Our Heavenly Father - I think that He makes this very clear. We simply cannot break the chains of the bondage in this physical world until we let go over any negative emotions that we harbor towards others. If we could only perceive the void that is created between ourselves and Our Creator as a direct result of negative emotion toward others. I’m telling you right now, that void and emptiness is completely out of order in our lives and all that empty space will be filled with chaos.
Believe me, I truly know how difficult this is for us, I can only share what has worked for me. I dare not speak of anything of this nature unless I know without a doubt that it will benefit others. When you pray, ask for Abba to Bless You with His Grace of Love and Forgiveness so that you can extend that Most Precious Gift of His Holy Grace of Forgiveness towards your neighbor.
You cannot simply utter those words, you must incline your heart to His and ask for the sake of everyone around you. He WILL in turn bless you with a higher perspective and will begin to show you little things that others have been through in this life. These little things revealed will enable you to understand what these people feel and why they act the way they do. You will begin to see that we are no better as our own faults will be revealed more clearly to us. It will become clear that you cannot change certain situations or people, but ONLY Through His Grace and Mercy, you CAN change your perspective of it all. See these people and situations as an opportunity to get closer to The LORD. That is EXACTLY why it is all put in your path as He Draws you near to Him through all of this. The more difficult it is to overcome, the more you will plead for His Grace and ultimately The Greater The Reward will be for everyone.
You will begin to understand why these people truly need our forgiveness. Regardless of the situation, there is always something that made them the way they seem to be. Ask for God to reveal whatever that is to you and then you will feel pity for them, instead of anger; then your forgiveness will come from your heart and won’t be given grudgingly. Allow The LORD to take away your heart of stone and Bless You with a Heart of Flesh .
“For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.” - Matthew 6:14-15
“Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.” - Luke 6:37
“And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses.
But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses.” - Mark 11:25-26
“Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.” - Ephesians 4:32
These are not merely empty words here, I know this all to be FACT from my own experience and growth. As I have said so many times before, I am nothing special whatsoever. I’ve done my forty years wandering through the desert, complaining to G*d about the woes of my life. I’ve truly been in some dark places that I would never wish on anyone. I done absolutely nothing to merit anything special and anyone can receive these gifts through The Blood of Yeshua.
I asked Him where He was while I was so lonely and miserable, stuck in that darkness - He Showed me that He was right there with me the whole time, Appointing His Angels To Encircle Me and To Protect Me. If this had not been the case, I wouldn’t be writing these words right now.
I asked Him why that I had to suffer and struggle through such pain and misery in this life - He Enabled me to perceive just how strong it all made me and then He Opened my eyes to see just how much Glory that my story brings to Him.
Only Our LORD can transform such utter darkness and despair to Pure Light and Love. This is what He Does. Examine His Word and you will see that this has always been His Way.
“But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty;
and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are,
that no flesh should glory in His presence.” - 1 Corinthians 1:27-29
חסד ושלום עליכם והרבה אהבה וברכות
May Grace and Peace Be Upon You and Much Love and Blessings!
