“God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.” (Psalm 46:1)
This verse tells us three important promises about God.
1) He is our refuge (a condition of being safe or sheltered from pursuit, danger, or trouble).
2) He isour strength (the quality or state of being strong, in particular).
3) He is our ever-present help in the time of trouble (assist, aid, lend a helping hand to, give assistance to, come to the aid of).
“For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.” (Matt. 6:14-15)
Two promises
This passage of scripture has two promises, one is positive and one is negative. The one you get depends totally on you. It has to do with forgiving others who have sinned against you. If you do forgive them your Heavenly Father will forgive you (positive), and if you do notforgive them, your Heavenly Father won't forgive you (negative). It's a very simple concept. Forgiveness is a choice you choose to make and non-forgiveness is a choice you choose to make. Choose wisely!
“To be a Christian means to forgive the inexcusable because God has forgiven the inexcusable in you." - C.S. Lewis
