Hello Bro,
God has blessed you with knowledge of a particular weakness....your X.
Dear brother, it is indeed at times difficult to fight the spirit of unforgiveness without taking its suggestions captive to the obedience of Christ....don't give them a foothold brother. Unforgiveness crouching at your door desires to have you friend.
The Apostle Paul says, "we do not wrestle against flesh and blood..."(Eph 6:10-18) and the Lord says, "And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. [u][b]BUT[/b][/u] if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses"- Mark 11:25-26(kjv)
Yes brother, when Christ called you, He also called you to war against the powers of darkness. We must take heed and guard our hearts.
Many people do things that they have no idea why...evil things that seem to just come naturally to them. Jesus prayed, "Father forgive them, for they do not know what they do". Sin is blinding friend. Cast it out brother in the Name of Jesus. You are called to holiness, to Him, therefore walk in the Spirit and you will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh.
A popular 20th century parable: If you have a problem with donoughts, then don't drive past the donought store.
Myself, I've brought many problems upon myself in the past thinking I was strong enough to be around certain temptations. Well, I was wrong...In ways, I continue to pay for sins I committed along time ago friend.
Please know brother I speak in Love...Abide in Him brother, and He will abide in you.
