You look through the scriptures. What is it that you don’t see? You do not see anywhere in the Old Testament or the New Testament the word unforgiveness. That is because unforgiveness is not even an option.
Ephesians 4.31 The Mirror Version. Take up the strongest possible position against every form of distorted behavior in your own life. Do not allow yourself to be spiteful; outbursts of violent emotion and rage do not become you. You don’t have to shout in order to make your point. People must feel safe in your conversation; therefore, slander and hurtful words (blasphemy) are out! 32 Be inspired by kindness and compassion; your forgiving one another when you might feel irritated and frustrated demonstrates the way God graciously treated us in Christ.
Unforgiveness, bitterness is something that Jesus doesn’t even know how to do. Yet those of us who do it seem to let what matters at the moment matter more than what matters most.
What is not permissible in heaven is not permissible on Earth
Colossians 3:12-13 (ESV) 12 Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, 13 bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.
Forgive ἀφίημι aphiēmi; in the greek means to send away to let go, let alone, let be, to disregard
Be who you are you! You have Jesus in you, there’s no room for unforgiveness.
Stop right now close your eyes and ask Holy Spirit. Who do I need to forgive?
Stop giving that person power that they don’t even have.

Taste the glory of being forgiven so you can become forgiveness to others
