II Chron. 30:9
For if you return to the LORD, your relatives and your children will be
treated mercifully by their captors, and they will be able to return to this
land. For the LORD your God is gracious
and merciful. If you return to him, he
will not continue to turn his face from you.
“The Lord is gracious and merciful; it you return to
Him, He will not continue to turn His face from you.” Dear friend, I don’t know your heart
today. I don’t know if you have wandered
away from the Lord or not. I do suspect
that some who read this have. If you
have, I know that you are not very happy today.
You may think you are and yet, deep down inside of you, you know you
aren’t. No matter how hard you may try
to convince yourself that things are alright with you, you know better. You cannot be away from God and have peace in
your soul. You cannot sin against God
without it bothering you. The guilt and
shame of sinning plagues you because you know better; you know that it does not
please God and keeps Him away from you.
Listen carefully to this word from the Lord; He is
gracious and merciful. If you turn back
to Him and repent of your sins, He will not turn His face from you. The Lord will welcome you back with open
arms. He longs to once again embrace you
and help you. He will forgive you if you
confess your sins to Him and accept responsibility for them. He will wash your soul with the cleansing
blood of Christ shed for you at Calvary.
He will purify your stained soul and make it whiter than snow.
Dear friend, won’t you do it right now? Won’t you turn back to the Lord and let Him
make you whole once again? Why put it
off? Today is the day of salvation. Tomorrow may never be for you. Aren’t you tired of listening to Satan’s
lies? Perhaps you are putting on a good
front. Perhaps you have others buffaloed
and they think all is well with your soul.
It is time for you to repent. It
is time for you to return to the Lord.
Do it now, while the Lord is speaking to your heart. He is waiting for you.
