Are you constantly reminding yourself of past failures and past sins, We all have a regretful past to some measure. Our regrets may include a lost love, a missed opportunity perhaps you did something morally wrong and you are ashamed and refuse to forgive yourself. Is there someone in your past that you have not forgiven? These things hinder our progress in life.
Our past may have indeed taught us some hard lessons but once learned can we then move on in life. Do not let your past tell you what you can and can not do and neither let the past tell you who you are and who you are not. What occured years ago will not frustrate our future. Today be free from your past and embrace today and everyday ahead of us.
Forget about the past
Phil 3:13 I do not consider, brethren, that I have captured and made it my own [yet]; but one thing I do [it is my one aspiration]: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead
A concerted effort to forget about past disappointments will launch you forward into what the Lord has ready and prepared for you.
Ex 23:20 Behold, I send an Angel before you to keep and guard you on the way and to bring you to the place I have prepared.
Forget about the past
Luke 9:62 Jesus said to him, No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back [to the things behind] is fit for the kingdom of God.
The Lord has removed the stains of our past He has literally made them vanish, and your past only stays alive in your mind.. This is what Jesus says about YOU.
2 Cor 5:17 Therefore if any person is [ingrafted] in Christ (the Messiah) he is a new creation (a new creature altogether); the old [previous moral and spiritual condition] has passed away. Behold, the fresh and new has come!
FORGET ABOUT THE PAST AND HAVE FAITH IN GOD
Eph 3:20 Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the [action of His] power that is at work within us, is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think [infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams]--
Eph 3:21 To Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations forever and ever. Amen (so be it).
