Here's a rewritten version of the message in a simple, captivating, and interesting way:

Revenge or Forgiveness: The Choice is Yours

Have you ever been hurt or wronged by someone? Did you feel the urge to get even or seek revenge?

That's natural. It's our instinctual response. But here's the thing: revenge might feel good for a moment, but it can lead to a lifetime of bitterness and pain.

Forgiveness, on the other hand, is a choice. It's not always easy, but it's always worth it. When we forgive, we're not saying that what happened was okay. We're saying that we trust God to handle the situation and bring justice.

So, what's holding you back from forgiving? Is it pride, anger, or fear? Whatever it is, know that forgiveness is possible. And it's the key to unlocking a life of freedom, peace, and joy.

Choose forgiveness today. Choose to let go of the past and trust God with your future. You won't regret it.

FORGET NOT HIS BENEFITS !!!

TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
"Praise the LORD, my soul, and forget not all his benefits."
Psalm 103:2, NIV

TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria:

God has given us many benefits today! He’s given us so much to be thankful for. When you meditate on His goodness, faithfulness and blessings in your life, it will change how you see the world. When you focus on the fact that He saved you and set you free, the challenges and obstacles in your life will begin to fade away. Psalm 103 goes on to say that He "crowns you with love and compassion and satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed.”

No matter what you may be facing today, forget not His benefits! God wants to satisfy you with good things. If you need healing today, healing is a benefit. If you’ve made mistakes in your life, forgiveness is a benefit. If you feel tired and overwhelmed, strength is a benefit. As you turn your thoughts toward the Father today, He will fill you with His peace and strengthen you to live as an overcomer in every area of your life.

PRAYER FOR TODAY:
"Father, I humbly come to You today. Thank You for receiving me just as I am. I choose to focus on Your goodness and believe You have so much more in store for me. I honour You and bless You in all that I do in Jesus’ name. Amen."

— Joel & Victoria Osteen

Too Close to Where You Got In
I like the story of the little boy who fell out of
bed. When his mom asked him what happened,
he answered, “I don’t know. I guess I stayed
too close to where I got in.”
Easy to do the same with our faith. It’s
tempting just to stay where we got in and never
move. How does your prayer life today compare
with then? How about your giving? And Bible
study? Can you tell you’ve grown?
2 Peter 3:18 says, “but grow in the grace and
knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”
If a child ceased to develop, the parent would
be concerned, right? Doctors would be called
and tests would be run. If you’re the same
Christian you were a few months ago, be
careful. You might be wise to get a check up.
Not on your body, but on your heart. Not a
physical…but a spiritual.
From When God Whispers Your Name

Suppose Bill Gates walked up, handed you a
book, and said, “This book contains every secret
that I have learned in the software industry, in
the information Technology business, and in the
stock market. It has been tried and proven over
a period of years to produce absolutely if you
will read it one hour each day and meditate in
it.” Would you trade an hour’s sleep for the
financial success Bill Gates has enjoyed? This
and so much more is available to you by
reading and meditating in the Word of God. A
greater than Bill Gates has given us the Book
that contains the secrets that created and
sustains the entire universe and He has
commanded us to meditate on it day and night.
Let us bow our hearts in meditation.

Revenge is Natural, Not Spiritual
When we are mistreated, our animalistic
response is to go on the hunt. Getting even is
only natural. Which, incidentally, is precisely the
problem. Revenge is natural, not spiritual.
Getting even is the rule of the jungle. Giving
grace is the rule of the kingdom.
You may be thinking, easy for you to say, you
have no idea how hard my life has been. You
are right, I don’t. But I have a very clear idea
how miserable your future will be unless you
deal with your anger.
X-ray the soul of the vengeful and behold the
tumor of bitterness; menacing, malignant.
Yesterday you cannot alter, but your reaction to
yesterday you can. After all, don’t we have
enough things to do without trying to do God’s
work too? Forgiveness is not saying the one
who hurt you was right. Forgiveness is stating
that God will do what is right.

I grew up near a bakery. Each time their bread
is done and coming out the oven, there's this
sweet aroma that fills the air. One a day they
are not baking, you'll not perceive such aroma.
That didn't mean the ingredients
( # RawMaterials ) are not all there - the flour,
the nutmeg, the butter, etc. they are all there
but will not smell nice as the processed one.
In the same vein, we are God's .
We'll be of no use if we don't allow God to
process us into the final produced that will be
sweet smelling and appetizing.
Remember, there's nothing an unprocessed flour
will do for a hungry man or a log or wood
sitting in a timber shop can do for tired man
that needs to sit down.
Don't take wood to a baker because that's not
his area of specialization or flour to a civil
engineer, he wouldn't know what to do with.
Bring yourself as raw as you are to God
almighty and He'll make the best finished
product from you that will bring about the much
desired change.
He is waiting...
Okay Udo

FOR ALL THE WOMEN, here is WISDOM FOR
YOU ALL!
Beauty attracts men but wisdom keeps
them. Elegance catches men's attention, but
intelligence convinces them. Nagging
irritates men but constructive silence
weakens them. the 'boy' in everyman
pumps out occasionally, your ability 2
handle this is a woman's truest maturity.
Men have secret struggles and silent pains,
Should you ever find them out you exhibits
the greatest maturity. In the long-run your
'words' matters more to a man than your
'looks'. So invest the right words. Earn a
man's respect then he will consider you the
yard stick in all his actions. Learn to mold
the moods of your man. Men will naturally
give you their futures if they can recall your
maturity in yesterday's issues..Women are
every where but Queens are scarce.Let the
Queen in you come alive and he'll hold you
in high esteem. . . . . . Stand strong, be a
virtuous praying woman. GOD BLESS ALL THE
WOMEN!

are you not guilty of this?

You are the only Christian some people will ever know, and your mission is to share Jesus with them. You must warn them so they may live. If you don't speak out to warn the wicket to stop their evil ways, they will die in their sin but God will hold you responsible for their death. (Ezekiel 3: 18)
