Why Can’t I Move Forward From This Offense?
Do you ever wonder why someone who is no longer in your life still has control over you? Does the very mention of their name trigger insecurity, fear, anger, shame, or bitterness? You might have set wise boundaries with this person because they were not safe. They might be out of your life entirely through divorce or death, but you are still bound to them because when someone maintains mental real-estate in your head, they still control you.
This is because a message is sent into our hearts when we are wounded. And when we don’t deal with the wound God’s way – that message becomes a drumbeat creating a rhythm in our subconscious that impacts our life.
Until you process the pain with God, you cannot put the past behind you. The triggers remain, and we live out the lies that make their way into our hearts through the wound.
In addition to the lies from the wound that the enemy of your soul can trigger to keep you trapped, there is a relationship between forgiveness and faith that ties you to your offender.
But your great God is waiting for you to come to him so he can heal you! In today’s podcast, we are talking about how to process your pain with God so you can put the past behind you and live free.
