Forgiveness is a decision of the will not the (mind or emotions), meaning you must “will” to forgive. It is impossible to forgive in your “will” if you do not comprehend Jesus works on the cross of calvary. When you received Jesus Christ as Lord of your life you exchanged your life for His life, therefore you live in His righteousness, for no human is good and righteous except God. To live in His righteous requires you to embrace His ways on the earth, He was innocent without guilt and took on all human guilt and sickness on the cross. Therefore you have no choice but to forgive whether you are innocent or guilty from being persecuted. It is no longer you who live but Christ in you, therefore you must forgive all people irrespective of your emotions or thoughts of the persecutors. You need to recognise that forgiveness is an unconditional action. Just like love is unconditional so too is forgiveness.Whether innocent or guilty You are too forgive those who have trespassed against me, so that our Father can pardon you of your trespasses.
Luke 6. 46But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do the things which I say? 47Whoever comes to Me, and hears My sayings and does them, I will show you whom he is like: 48He is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently against that house, and could not shake it, for it was [j]founded on the rock. 49But he who heard and did nothing is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation, against which the stream beat vehemently; and immediately it [k]fell. And the ruin of that house was great.”
What does forgiveness look like in practical application?" It’s a heart matter, and must be dealt with from a right heart.
Forgiving with a wrong heart is deception of the heart. It must to be a heart attitude. Jeremiah 17.10 [ I, the Lord, search the heart, I test the mind, Even to give to each man according to his ways, According to the results of his deeds.
Psalm 44.21 Would not God find this out? For He knows the secrets of the heart.
The importance of discernment etc.
1 Corinthians 2:14 “The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit.”
Hebrews 5:14 “But solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good and evil.”
Proverbs 28:2 “When a country is rebellious, it has many rulers, but a ruler with discernment and knowledge maintains order.”
Deuteronomy 32:28-29 “They are a nation without sense, there is no discernment in them. 29 If only they were wise and would understand this and discern what their end will be!”
What is discernment and how do we apply guard our hearts
Romans 12:9 “Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.”
Proverbs 14:8 “The wisdom of the prudent is to discern his way but the folly of fools is deceiving.”
John 7:24 “Do not judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment.”Proverbs 1119:66 “Teach me good discernment and knowledge for I believe in your commandments.”
Forgiveness starts with a decision to have a right heart towards God
Self-awareness toward your heart state[Psalm 139.23-24 Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties;24And see if there is any wicked way in me,And lead me in the way everlasting.]
1 Samuel 16.7But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at the height of his stature, because I have rejected him; for God sees not as man sees, for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”
