Let People Off the Hook

Jul 08, 2022

Today's Scripture

Philippians 4:19, NIV
And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.

Today's Word

God has seen everything that's happened in your life--the injustice, the bad breaks, the person who did you wrong. Those people cannot pay you back. They cannot make you whole. No matter how good a person is, they can't give you everything you need. Only God can meet your needs. He said He will give you beauty for ashes. He said He will pay you back double for the unfair things that have happened. Quit looking to people to make it up to you. Quit trying to get somebody to apologize, to admit they were wrong, to give you what they don't have. When you let people off the hook and quit trying to make them perform perfectly and keep you fixed, not only will their life be better, but your relationships will improve.

Let people off the hook. If you go to God, He'll bring you out better. He'll make the rest of your life more rewarding and more fulfilling than if those negative things hadn't happened in the first place.

Prayer for Today

Father, thank You that You made me to be complete and fulfilled in You alone. Help me to realize when I'm looking to others to give me what only You can give and to let them off the hook. I believe and declare that I find everything I need in You. In Jesus' Name, Amen
