  Hello, and welcome to today's episode of divine
• 1:08
  five one five.
• 1:09
  I wanna start today's episode by
• 1:12
  discussing how unforgiveness
• 1:14
  blocks our prayers.
• 1:16
  The scripture I'm coming from today comes from
• 1:18
  Mark eleven twenty five.
• 1:20
  And when you stand praying,
• 1:23
  if you hold anything against anyone,
• 1:26
  forgive them so that your father in heaven
• 1:28
  may forgive you your sins.
• 1:32
  Unforgiveness creates a barrier between our hearts and
• 1:35
  God.
• 1:36
  When we refuse to forgive,
• 1:38
  we carry a weight that God never intended
• 1:40
  us to hold.
• 1:42
  Unforgiveness
• 1:43
  quietly hardens the heart and clogs the flow
• 1:46
  of our prayer.
• 1:47
  When we hold on to bitterness,
• 1:50
  it creates a barrier between
• 1:53
  us, our prayer, and God.
• 1:58
  Jesus teaches us that unforgiving
• 2:02
  is dangerous,
• 2:04
  that forgiving others opens the door to our
• 2:07
  own healing and freedom.
• 2:10
  Prayer flows best
• 2:12
  through a heart that is willing to release
• 2:14
  what hurts.
• 2:15
  Doesn't mean it's going to be easy.
• 2:19
  Forgiveness doesn't excuse what was done.
• 2:23
  It frees us from carrying it.
• 2:27
  Let's pray.
• 2:30
  Heavenly father,
• 2:31
  I have wronged and disobeyed you many times,
• 2:36
  yet you chose to forgive me of every
• 2:38
  sin.
• 2:40
  Reveal any unforgiveness
• 2:41
  hiding in my heart.
• 2:44
  Give me the strength to release pain and
• 2:46
  bitterness into your hands.
• 2:49
  With your help,
• 2:51
  heal my heart as I forgive
• 2:53
  so that I can be forgiven.
• 2:55
  Today, I choose
• 2:57
  obedience
• 2:59
  so that I can be free.
• 3:02
  May you be blessed always
• 3:03
  in Jesus' name.
• 3:10
