AN UNFORGIVING SPIRIT



Nothing will hinder prevailing prayer more than an unforgiving spirit.

A child was walking along a street & a large dog came out barking. She stood terrified.

Soon a stranger came to her & said: "Come on, little girl, the dog has stopped barking."

"Yes, she said, "but the bark is on the inside." She saw in the eyes of the dog an unfriendly spirit.

We Christians are too civilized today to quarrel outwardly, but is there not sometimes a bark inside - an unforgiving spirit?

Mat 6:15 (ERV): “But if you don’t forgive others, then your Father in heaven will not forgive the wrongs you do.”

“Do you have a prayer that needs answered - then forgive.” -  Rod Parsley.
