Philippians 3:7-9; 4:1-5; 2 Timothy 4:16-21. Lack of forgiveness keeps believers away from one another. How long does it take to forgive someone? As long as self is the issue it will always cause distance between believers.

Ephesians 4:20-24; 6:10-18. As believers, when we don't put off the old and put on the new man we function in a state where now we think we have to bear someone else’s burden. Giving ourselves over to prayer alleviates the false burden we have or think we need to be for others.

Esther 4:14-17; 8:9; 9:27; John 12:31-36; John 13:31-38; 1 Corinthians 7:29; Ephesians 5:6-16; John 3:16-21. It's important to hear and submit to the Word and to be taught so that you can be delivered from the plans of the enemy. When submitting to the Word, Christ is not only delivering you from your current struggles but also from the potential of what the enemy plans to do -- that you're unaware of.
