       II   Press On: Hold on to Purpose –
       One thing I do – Forget Past, stain forward
          1.  Forget past sins:
       “Whoever conceals his transgressions will not prosper, but he who confesses
       and forsakes them will obtain mercy.”  (Proverbs 28:13) God is faithful and just
       to forgive those who repent and exercise faith in Lord Jesus Christ.  (I John 1:9)
       God has blotted our transgressions like a cloud and sin like mist. (Isaiah 44:22)
          2.  Forget missed opportunities:
       “Then Manoah prayed to the LORD and said, “O Lord, please let the man of God
       whom you sent come again to us and teach us what we are to do with the child
       who will be born.”  (Judges 13:8)
          3.  Forget past failures:
       Peter failed that he denied the Lord three times. Yet, Lord restored him,
       reinstated him in ministry and he became a great leader of the church.  (John 21)
          4.  Forget past successes:
       The Nation of Israel dwelt in their success of victory of Jericho.  (Joshua 6) They
       failed in the city of Ai.  (Joshua 7) Mountaineers do not stay in peak, they come
       down and conquer new peaks.
          5.  Forget bitter experiences
       Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh. “For,” he said, “God has
       made me forget all my hardship and all my father's house.”  (Genesis 41:51)
          6.  Forget past abundance
       “I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every
       circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance

       and need. I can do all things through him who strengthens me.”  (Philippians
       4:12,13)
