Book Cover & Preview Text
Matt: 18:33: Should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you?
Matt: 18:34: And his master was angry, and delivered him to the torturers, until he should pay all that was due to him.
Matt: 18:35: So my heavenly Father also will do to you, if each of you from his heart does not forgive his brother his trespasses. NJKV
Did you get that? Our heavenly Father has forgiven us so much but we have trouble forgiving small offenses. Unforgiveness also opens the door for the enemy (the torturers or tormentors in another translation), to come in. It gives the enemy access to torture or torment us in many ways or forms – sickness in the body, depression, anger, etc.
The following is a testimony of a woman that the Lord healed after she repented and forgave: “In October of 2004 around the 11th day, I felt very ill. My heart started to race as if I had run a marathon. I was at work so I went to the nurse, she alarmed me; she told me that I had to get my heart to slow down. After medication and exercises it slowed down a little. Later that day I felt sick, sick, sick. I drove myself to the hospital. I was admitted. Test after test, I was sent home days after that with a heart monitor.
At this time I had in mind to still go to the Women’s Retreat hosted by Peggy Key Ministries (PKM). However, my mind said yes and my body said no, but I persevered and persevered and I attended the conference ill.
Oh, but when you have praying saints the unexplainable happens, the unthinkable happens, and during that first night I felt when I would leave on that weekend I would have my healing. Upon my arrival Sis Key prayed for me. Later that night, one of the Elders’ laid hands on my chest not knowing my problem.
During the deliverance night, God gave Sis Key a word of knowledge for me about forgiveness. I listened and repented for something I didn’t realize I was still harboring. I received my healing the weekend of October 15th through 16th 2004 at the Retreat.
I went to the doctor on October 18th to take a test again. The test I took on October 12th showed a blockage; the doctor said, the test I took on October 18th showed nothing! Hallelujah! Thank you Jesus by His stripes I’m healed!”

About the Book
Many people feel a loss of control when they are offended and believe that unforgiveness will allow them to regain power or control. However, it is just the opposite, when you do not forgive it gives the person who caused you pain power over you. There are others who do not realize they need to forgive. Many have moved on and forgiven with their mouth but not with their heart, and many have hidden the offense inside and have not dealt with it because it was so painful.
Our ability to forgive will be put to the test many times. The author shares some of her own testing times in this book and the path she had to take to forgive and be free. This book will challenge you to realize where you are and reveal how you too can stop giving your pain power and forgive. It will help you to stand victoriously when offenses come and be free.
