Bible Reading: Isaiah 43:18-19 

Memory Verse: But one thing I do: forgetting the things that are behind, and stretching forth myself to those that are before. Philippians 3:13b (DRB)

Life is a journey and only those with a sense of focus will reach their destination gloriously. You are created to marvel your world. You are no longer in darkness because God has brought you into His marvelous light. Lack of knowledge of your inheritance in Christ Jesus can make you a cheap victim of the devil’s trick. Satan is subtle; one of his subtle ways is to make you remember the things that happened to you in the past so as to put your present and future in bondage, but I see you free this hour, in the name of Jesus.

Many cannot fulfill their glorious future because of the memory of their past failures and mistakes. They just can’t forget their past. The painful memories keep recycling itself in their mind. The jilt, the business deal that went sour, the miscarriage, the oppression, the retrenchment, the financial embarrassment, those harsh words, etc. God is admonishing you not to remember the mistakes and failures of your past. He is set to do a new thing in your life for all men to see. You must not remember the old things. Those who embrace the failures of yesterday can never see the brightness of tomorrow.

Every successful man or woman you see today has once failed or had a terrible past, but did not allow that situation to keep him/her on the floor. There is no man who has never made a mistake in life; not one. Every great man has made one mistake or the other.  Late Dr. Myles Munroe said, “Some people are too busy trying to get over their past that they don’t have time to live their future.” God does not use your past to determine your future. Let go of the past and pursue the bright future ahead of you. Let go of the past; there is something bigger in the future. Let the dreams of your future be so big that it will consume you and make your past failures and mistakes look inconsequential.

Put the picture of a big dream for your future in front of your mind that you may not see your past mistakes anymore. The reason you are still seeing your past failures is because there is no dream of your future placed before you. When the dream in front of your mind is too big, you will not remember what happened in the past. Nature abhors vacuum. May every past negative memory be wiped off by the blood of Jesus.
