FORGIVE COMPLETELY

If your mind's attention is repeatedly drawn in a negative way to a person you have chosen to forgive, take authority over your thoughts. Command your mind, in Jesus' name, to dwell on thoughts that are true, honorable, right, pure, lovely, excellent and worthy of praise (see Phil. 4:8, 9). Order the enemy to be silent, and cut off the power to your old memory circuits by refusing to listen to the devil's voice. Change direction by believing what God's Word says. It is helpful to quote Scripture verses aloud until you have the victory. You can also begin to thank the Lord for the positive qualities He has placed in that person and in the situation; pray God's blessing upon these positive areas.
