The Fire of Forgiveness

The Fire of Forgiveness: How Blessing Our Enemy Breaks the Battle

A Forged in Faith Kingdom Message by Jeannie Walker

June 14, 2025

✝️🔥⚔️ Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. ~ Romans 12:14 (NKJV)

Hello beloveds,

Let’s be honest …

There are moments in this walk of faith that stretch us to our limits, not because we lack heart, but because we’ve been wounded deeply.

Wounds caused not by strangers, but often by those closest loved ones to us …

💔People who lied.

💔Who used us.

💔Who rejected or abandoned us.

💔Who spoke words that pierced deeper than any sword.

🔥📖⚔️And then, the Word of God speaks clearly and without compromise:

✝️🔥⚔️Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. ~ Romans 12:14 NKJV

That verse hits different when you’re standing in the aftermath of betrayal, rejection, deception and abandonment.

But friend, this isn’t about them!

This is about your heart healing, ❤️‍🩹 your freedom, 🕊️ and your alignment with Heaven. 👑

Forgiveness is not just a virtue ~ it’s a weapon of warfare. ⚔️🩸🛡️💪🏼

Let me explain:

Why Forgiveness Is Kingdom Warfare

In spiritual battles, the enemy doesn’t always attack through external storms, sometimes, he attacks through people - co-workers, friends and even family…

💔Through gossip and offense.

💔Through manipulation.

💔Through division.

💔Through silence.

The devil knows if he can get you to hold on to bitterness, unforgiveness, and resentment, he can lock your heart in a spiritual prison; causing strongholds and bondage to bind you up. So be aware and don’t allow the enemy to have a foothold in your mind, heart or emotions. Stay grounded in the Word of God. 🔥📖🔥

✝️🔥⚔️ But Jesus came to set the captives free (Luke 4:18), and that includes you.

✝️🔥⚔️ For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers. against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. ~ Ephesians 6:12 NKJV

The real enemy isn’t the person behind the attacks or hurtful behavior, it’s the evil spirits behind the behavior that influences the actions aimed towards you and your life.

✝️💪🏼And when you bless those who curse you, you cancel the enemy’s legal access to your life.

Forgiveness closes demonic doors, 🚪 restores your peace, 🕊️ and shifts the battle into God’s hands. ✝️🙌🏼⚔️🩸🛡️🤲🏼⚔️ All Glory to God!

Blessing Others Breaks Bondage Off You

We’re not told to bless our enemies because they deserve it; but to bless them because we are not bound to them anymore. And, in order to be forgiven of our trespasses, we must also forgive those that have trespassed against us … ❤️‍🔥🤓

👑Your calling is too costly to be chained to old pain.

🕊️Your peace is too valuable to give to people who don’t protect it.

💝👑♥️And your heart is too anointed to carry the poison of offenses.

✝️🔥⚔️ Repay no one evil for evil. If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men. ~ Romans 12:17-18 NKJV

Forgiveness doesn’t make what happened right.

💫🪽But it makes you free.

Spiritual Warfare Prayer: God, Contend With Those Who Contend With Me

✝️🔥♥️🙏🏼♥️⚔️🪽⚔️🩸🛡️💪🏼Let’s pray with boldness and fire in the Spirit but also with hearts surrendered in obedience:

Father God,

You are my Defender, my Shield, and my Strong Tower.

Right now, I lift to You every battle and person I cannot fight in my flesh.

Father God, You said in Your Word that You would contend with those who contend with me (Isaiah 49:25), and I stand on that promise today.

In the name of Christ Jesus, I renounce every curse, every lie, occult spirits, witchcraft assignments, every accusation, and every spiritual attack launched against my life, my peace, my health, my finances, my identity, and my purpose. In Jesus name, I break the power of every word curse, every manipulative scheme, every spirit of control, occult or witchcraft assignments aimed against me, or intimidation that has tried to steal, kill, or destroy anything good in my life.

I plead the blood of Jesus over my mind, body, soul, spirit, heart, emotions, my home, children, and future.

✝️🔥⚔️ I declare and decree that no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against me in judgment I condemn it according to Isaiah 54:17.

✌🏼I release those who wounded me.

❤️‍🩹I forgive those who betrayed, rejected and abandoned me.

❤️‍🔥🙏🏼And I bless those who have cursed me, not by my own strength, but by the power of Christ Jesus living in me.

Heavenly Father, I call down heavenly justice, and I trust You to vindicate, restore, and defend everything that the enemy has stolen.

I stand in authority as a daughter of the Most High God, clothed in the full armor of God from head to toe, and covered in the protection of the shed blood of our Savior Jesus.

🕊️✝️ I refuse to curse what You’ve called me to forgive and bless.

🕊️✝️ I choose freedom in Jesus name.

So continue to stand bold in Faith of our Savior Jesus and know that He is working all things out for our good and fighting battles we cannot see. In Jesus holy and mighty name, Amen and Amen. 💪🏼✝️⚔️🩸🛡️🔥♥️🙏🏼♥️🔥

Final Thoughts from My Heart to Yours

If this message met you in the middle of a deep place, know this: God sees every tear, every injustice, and every unspoken wound.

❤️‍🩹Forgiveness is hard.

❤️‍🩹Blessing your enemies is harder.

But the peace of God, true, unshakable peace 🕊️ is the fruit of choosing obedience to Him when your flesh screams for revenge.

Let God handle what only He can ... “Vengeance is mine sayeth the Lord Jesus Christ.”

You keep walking forward ~ head high, heart whole, and feet grounded in the truth of Jesus Christ.

✝️🔥⚔️ Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. ~ Romans 12:21 NKJV

🔥 You were Forged in Faith for a reason. And this battle? 🔥 It’s just proof that you’re carrying something the enemy can’t stand to see fulfilled. So continue to press in brethren!!! 💪🏼✝️🔥♥️🙏🏼✝️🔥🕊️❤️‍🔥
