Ever wish certain things wouldn’t come to your mind anymore? Things that you just don’t want to remember!

Well I do…and last night was one of those nights when I awakened to thoughts of things in the past.  Things that I thought had happened but may not have.  Things that happened which I wished hadn’t happened.  Well, God’s Word says in Isaiah 65:12, “The Lord will create a new earth.  The former things will not be remembered nor will they come to mind.”  Also, Isaiah 43:18 says, “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past.”

Today, I proclaim the Word of God over our lives.  I ask God to help us forget the past as He prepares us for what He’s going to do in our future!

If you, like me, are sometimes tormented by your past hurts, or someone else’s past; God is saying…forget it; I’m doing something new in your future!  Grab hold to God’s Word and present it back to him.

Lord, as your Word tells me to forget the past failures, hurts, disappointments, mistakes and get ready for something new that you’re going to do.  I ask that you help me not remember the past anymore.  I don’t want the thoughts that torment me to come to my mind again.  I thank you for watching over my mind and for changing me.  I pray this, Your Word, in Jesus name.  Amen
