Bitterness is defined as the anger and disappointment at being treated unfairly

I am currently reading a book by Rick Joyner, the vision, the final quest. This book is taking me forever to read but has been insightful thus far. I would recommend this book to every believer.
Bitterness or unforgiveness is a vehicle by which demonic forces travel into your life and relationships. When you do not forgive, you invite hell into your life. When you forgive, you ask heaven down into your life. Bitterness is a monster; it will destroy your life. Bitterness is practically poison to your soul. It hurts you physically, spiritually, and emotionally

Bitterness/ unforgiveness are weapons the enemy uses to pin God's children down. It can come in uninvited, great the Bible says we have to stay alert, be watchful and pray so we don't fall into any of Satan's trap. When we are bitter and hold things against people , it blocks us from gaining access into Abba's presence.
Knowing the truth from God's word has helped me a lot. Though sometimes it's hard to wrap your mind around stuff that people do and you wonder if they are considerate or not. I have learnt not to take things so personal. I pray for grace to handle any unpleasant situation that I may encounter. Being offended i…
