Forget What Lies Behind
|
Posted By: Dr. Teresa Tee Bolden on September 25, 2009 Forget What Lies Behind Today’s Verse: “…but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead,” (Philippians 3:13, NLT). Today’s Word: Are you focused on forgetting what lies behind? I know many people don’t fully understand what it means to forget the past. They wonder, “How can I forget something that’s happened to me?” But one definition of the word forget means to disregard intentionally or to overlook. You have to intentionally disregard your past so that it doesn’t keep you from moving forward. That means the good and the bad. Sometimes our past victories keep us from rising higher as much as past failures. If we don’t let go of the old, we’ll never be able to embrace the new. It doesn’t matter what’s happened in your history, it’s time to forget what lies behind. Make the choice today to press forward. Trust that God has a better future in store for you. Trust that He’s working behind the scenes on your behalf. As you press forward, you will move forward, and you will embrace the life of victory God has in store for you. Prayer for Today: Father in heaven, I choose to forget the past today. I don’t want anything to hold me back from the future You have prepared for me. I choose forgiveness and ask that You help me by Your Spirit to press forward in every area of my life. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
