Why do we keep going back into the past. What draws us backwards? The hurt, the regret, the disappointments? Why if those things are so hurtful we insist on going back? For example, if you are driving in a car and you continuously drive in reverse you will not make it to your destination. As long as we keep looking back we will never reach our destiny. Just like in Genesis 19 when Lot's wife looked back when God told her not to, she turned into a pillar of salt. If we continue to focus on what was we will become bitter just like salt. When those thoughts rises up into your mind, tell the devil you don't have time to look back because you are moving forward. Let go of what was. You will never be able to grow nor that person that you have never forgiving if you keep back paddling. Just like time changes so do we. Give it all to Jesus and set yourself free. God is the key to your chains that has been keeping you in bondage.
Prayer: Lord today I set myself free from all the pain and anger that my past has brought me. Today is a new day with new experience. I will not allow my past to dictate my destiny. Lord, cause my feet to stumble every time I want to back track. Order my steps, so that I will be able to walk the path that you desire for me. I know that my past shaped me and mold me for my future. I have no use for it anymore. Loose my chains and set me free. In Jesus Mighty Name. Amen.
