The Five Keys to Freedom and Healing
Key Number One
The first key is “Repentance and Faith.” We must repent and ask for God’s forgiveness, just as the Prodigal Son did when he returned home. However, we must remember that God’s mercy is greater than our greatest sin.
Key Number Two
Forgiveness is called the “Master Key,” as it opens the door to God’s mercy. Saint Faustina wrote in her spiritual Diary, “We resemble God most when we forgive our neighbor.”
Forgiveness doesn’t not erase memories, and it is not a feeling. It is an act of the will. Lack of forgiveness is a major stumbling block for many.
Key Number Three
Renouncing the work of your enemies is important. We must remember that where evil abounds, grace abounds all the more. We reject Satan and all his evil works, and place our faith and trust in Jesus Christ.
Key Number Four
Standing in the authority you have in Christ! Remember as baptized we are children of God and heirs to the kingdom. God is love. Anger, lack of forgiveness, resentment, confusion, discouragement, and exaggerated anxiety are not of God.
Key Number Five
Receiving God’s blessing of your identity and destiny. This is important as God has great plans for you.
We must try to stay close to Him through prayer, reading Scripture, going to Mass as our station in life permits, frequent Confession, and daily prayer.
We must always remember that God loves each and every one of us in a special way!
