A Call to Repent

 


    God calls out to everyone to repent.  That means acknowledging sin as sin, agreeing that it is wrong, and asking for forgiveness.  It requires change on our part.  That is not easy.  Once you find salvation, repentance only begins.  Even Christians sin, but we should be quicker to repent because sin should no longer be a part of our lifestyle.
    When you repent and return to God, He will heal your soul.  He will revive and restore your life.  His desire is to give you mercy, but when you live in sin He will allow things to wound your life.  He can't show mercy unless you repent sin because sin can't be in His presence.  Jesus died and rose again on the third day because of sin.  He did this, so we could have a bridge to be able to know God.  Do you strive to know God?
    He has watched horrible things occur and people defile His world.  God's judgment can come swiftly, like lightning.  God wants faithful love, not sacrifices.  Faith is not a ritual.  It is an inner worship.  Violation of the covenant is why the harvest of wickedness has an appointed time.  Make sure that you repent and find salvation (if you have not already) before that day.

Hosea 6
