  1. Pursue peace and holiness with everyone
  2. Keep pace with God’s grace
  3. Let go of perceived injustice

Hebrews 12 NIV
14 Make every effort to live in peace with everyone and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord. 15 See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many. 16 See that no one is sexually immoral, or is godless like Esau, who for a single meal sold his inheritance rights as the oldest son. 17 Afterward, as you know, when he wanted to inherit this blessing, he was rejected. Even though he sought the blessing with tears, he could not change what he had done.

Healing ways to get rid of bitterness:

  1. Take a few days off.

  2. get alone with God.

  3. get a notebook and a pen.

  4. write down the names of all those who have hurt you going back to your earliest memories in your childhood up to now.

  5. Look at your list and begin with the 1st name and think about what they did, from your heart with tears forgive them, pray for them to be saved, bless that person and release that person into Jesus’s hands spiritually. Move on to the next name and repeat until you have gone through the whole list of names.

if you forgive each one from your heart and you mean it, you’re not just verbally forgiving them… this is the ONLY way to get rid of ALL bitterness.

  1. After you’ve done your healing work with Heavenly Father, forgive yourself and ask God to forgive you for all those you’ve hurt from your heart. This may take hours but you will feel the pain of bitterness and anger GONE.

IT WORKS!!!

@Kennyjoede did I miss something? Why do you ask if the two witness of Revelation are witnessing now? Did two old guys in sackcloth show up preaching? I don’t believe that is supposed to happen till the tribulation but if they showed up already then wow… we are almost out of here.
