Hello sisters!
I hope this finds you well and pressing on into the kingdom of God!
Good scriptures here that teach us about repentance (or the lack thereof)...
O Jerusalem, wash thine heart from wickedness, that thou mayest be saved. How long shall thy vain thoughts lodge within thee?Jeremiah 4:14
Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?Ezekiel 33:11
When the righteous turneth from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, he shall even die thereby.But if the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby.Ezekiel 33:18-19
And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:Acts 17:30
But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.Acts 26:20
Let us keep walking in the truth and light and repent when we need to lest we perish.
Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.Psalm 139:23-24Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD. Let us lift up our heart with our hands unto God in the heavens.Lamentations 3:40-41Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.Psalm 26:2Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?2 Corinthians 13:5
I was thinking today how even something like putting on your headcovering is so the Lord is glorified. We know a woman's hair is her glory, but we want our Lord to be glorified in all things!
Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy mercy, and for thy truth's sake.Psalm 115:1
If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
1 Peter 4:11
And we clothe our bodies in simple coverings not in that which adorns ourselves to receive any glory of man but our adorning is a meek and quiet spirit of the inner man and good works. This is of great price to God and glorifies Him!
So keep pressing on in humility and peace and joy in the Lord sisters! He has done great things for us whereof we are glad and so thankful! Hold fast to Christ who shed His blood for us and rose again that we may live also!
Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.Jude 1:21
Grace, mercy, and peace to you in His name.
