For several days now I have been praying, asking God for forgiveness for all the bad things that are in my heart, I say: Father help me to please you, I want to please you, I only know that I need you and I feel a useless servant, I need urgent changes in my heart, I need changes in my character, I need changes in my way of speaking and expressing myself, I need changes in my inner being, I need more love inside of me to love my neighbor.
Because the principle of the healing of my soul begins loving and loving my neighbor as myself, because the most dangerous enemy of my soul is myself.
Leviticus 19:18 Love your neighbor, 18 "Do not be vengeful or resentful of your own people. Love your neighbor, who is like yourself. I am the Lord. [2]
God gives us a command, you will love your neighbor as yourself, but let's analyze this verse
First: He says do not avenge yourself, I believe that God wants us to forgive at all times the one who has hurt us, to forget the offenses of the past to be totally free, because when we make mistakes in the same way we need to be forgiven. Because we are human beings equal to our neighbor, we feel, we worry, we get sick just like them
Second: No, you will hold a grudge against your brothers, you will forgive everyone equally and you will forget the matter, to forgive is the best remedy to heal our wounded soul, to forgive and forget, that is why sometimes we retain the blessing of God on our lives, that is why we do not let the Holy Spirit flow in us because we do not forget how bad they have done to us, it is because the place of the Holy Spirit is occupied and that is why it is necessary to say to God: Father forgive me, and today I decide forgive the one who has hurt me, today I decide to forget and forgive to leave clean and empty space that occupied the lack of forgiveness, so that you occupy yourself, today I decide to forgive and take out of my heart, what for a long time has away from you.
Deuteronomy 19:11 who does not love his neighbor. 11 But if there is a man who hates his neighbor, and stalking him, he rises up against him, wounds him, and he dies, and then he flees to one of these cities, 12 then the elders of his city will send him out of there, and they will hand it over to the avenger of blood to die.
God tells us if we do justice by our own hand instead of forgiving, then it will be taken as sin not to have loved my neighbor and for that sin I will die, because the word of God is clear in saying that every soul that sins will die.
Proverbs 3:29 Do not intend to harm your neighbor 29 Do not make evil against your neighbor, against him who has put his trust in you.
Do not try, God speaks clearly to us, do not try badly against your neighbor, forgive him because he who lives forever, Jehovah of Hosts says: I will give the just payment to each one for his works, mine is revenge let me act to myself and you heal your heart
Zechariah 8:16 - 17 always speaks to your neighbor with the truth 16 These are the things you are to do: Speak each truth to your neighbor, judge according to the truth and what is conducive to peace, within your gates: 17 and do not plot evil against one another in your hearts, nor love the false oath; because all these are things that I hate, says Jehovah.
God wants us to behave with righteousness and integrity in our hearts, that we better fence in front of the one who has wronged us and that we speak to him with the truth, because the same word of God says: And the truth will make you free, God says: But nor in your heart think about doing wrong to your neighbor, because it becomes a sin and all that God hates.
Luke 10:27 - 28
27 And he answered and said, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself. 28 And Jesus said to him, Well have you answered: do this, and you will live.
You will love God with all your heart where the Holy Spirit of God dwells, with all your soul it must submit to God and be healed in order to love God and live subject to him because that is where all the evils lie. , with all your strength, that everything you do on this earth however insignificant it may seem is to honor, praise, adore, exalt and please God, with all your mind, because that is where Satan will rebuke him at this hour, with sweet and deceitful words, or sorrows and afflictions will want to make you blaspheme and desist from your walk in Christ Jesus, and if we love God in this way this will be perfected in us, and will help us filling us with his love, with the immense love of God for to be able to love our neighbor as myself.
