My heart harbors a lot of hate toward people and accepting that i am wrong is also a very difficult thing to do also.

Forgive them. If possible tell them you forgive them. Yes it is hard, but you will feel such a release when you have done it. A good way of breaking hatred is to pray for that person. Confess the word of God over them

I lack motivation and stength in my walk w/ Christ.

That is because of the extra weight you are carrying. Get rid of your burden, walk strong. Spend time in Gods word, pray in the Spirit. The word and His spirit will shatter your bonds.

My life is falling apart. My sins have become strongholds and i really need some help. Plese respond.

Rise up. Be loosed from that which holds you in the name of Jesus. Start confessing the word over your life. As you do you will pull those strongholds down. Submit to God, seek God, as you do your priorities will change, your strength will build, you will rise up to be the person God has called you to be.

Use the authority you have in the name of Jesus. Speak to the stronghold. Tell it to go in the name of Jesus. Declare who and what you are according to His word.

Feed your faith with the word. Identify what feeds your stronghold then cut off the supply. If it is hatred cut it off by acting in love. Don't go by your feelings they will change later. Go by the word.

Don't settle for living that way but don't fall into the trap that you can change yourself either. Set yourself to prayer and fasting to the best of your ability until you get a definite answer from the LORD. Use your negative emotions which your problems are causing you as a motivation for continueing to seek the Lord. I will pray for you also.

The key to forgiveness is giving up the grudge. The primary reason to give up the grudge is not because we are all sinners and only God can judge us but rather because of the tremendous harm it does us to hold the grudge.

A rattlesnake, if cornered, will become so angry it will bite itself. That is exactly what harboring hate and resentment against others is—a biting of oneself. We think that we are harming others in holding these spites and hates, but the deeper harm is to ourselves. Forgiveness is for the victim's physical and mental health, NOT the perpetrator's.

Forgiveness, in fact, is the key to freedom. By reaching past our hatred to seeing the other's humanity and releasing them from any hurts done to us, our feelings can begin to change. We are responsible for our own behavior. We are not responsible for other people’s behaviors and actions; nor are they responsible for ours.

Put your trust in God’s power. Ask God for healing. In the midst of wrong, love can be recovered whether or not justice is served. Forgiveness returns us to tranquility, wholeness and the ability to love fully. If you remain in your anger, your arrogance, your pride, or your pain, you are like the oak, which ultimately will be felled by the numerous ax blows at your soul.

Your most important freedom is your attitude, your reaction to circumstances. Choose your own way. Don’t let circumstances dictate the way. Move on. Dump the baggage. Let go..."Forgive"...Heal your soul and mind...
