Forgiveness

Betrayal is devastating. It produces a feeling of worthlessness for trusting an untrustworthy person. We respond to betrayal in anger. We seek to get even or make our betrayers suffer for how they've wronged us. In this plan we'll look at what the Bible teaches on how we should respond to betrayals with the prayer to be victorious over your own abandonment or violation of trust and eventually move on. 

Being Betrayed

The Book of Isaiah was a prophecy written to the nation of  Israel, warning them of their impending exile because they disobeyed God. Despite His anger, chapters 40-66 reveal God's compassion for them as He comforted and consoled them through Isaiah's prophecy. During this seven-day devotional, we will discover God's unfailing love and promises of Messianic redemption, which were fulfilled through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Make the most of your Passion Week and step into the footsteps of Jesus. In this Abide plan we meditate on the events between Psalm Sunday and Resurrection Sunday where we see how Jesus willingly went to the cross on our behalf.

A Passion Week Journey

In this short epistle, Paul reminds Philemon of his faith in Christ and his love for the saints. He then asks Philemon to welcome Onesimus, his runaway slave, despite the risks. Paul concludes with the rewards of a response of faith and love: Christlikeness, koinonia, and community. This three-day plan will challenge you to practice faith and love in more profound ways.

Feeling betrayed? Have you been hurt by someone you trusted? Are you holding onto a grudge for something someone has done to you? Though these are natural and instinctive emotions, these feelings ultimately never lead to what God truly desires for us. In God's Word, we find that only through forgiveness do we find the healing, comfort and peace that we so desperately need.
