Matthew 4
17From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say,Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
This verse is not uncommon to most believers, but truth be told not lived out in their lives. Repentance what is it?
What does it mean to be truly repenttive?
Do believers live understanding that the Kingdom of heaven is at hand?
Do we realize that we know NOT the hour that a Savior will return?
Do we live our lives with that belief and understanding in our fore front?
Or do live in sin today not thinking about when or if we will see tomorrow?
True repentance brings someone to a point where they do not want to do whatever they were doing again. They turn from it without ever looking back.
Is that how you live? Or do you continually live in a state of sin? Does that sin control you instead of you controlling it?
Dear Ones,
Sin sneaks up on all of us. We think that we can keep control of it. Truly we can not control sin. It controls us. When stress welds up in your life, what do you turn to?
When things seem to not go your way, what do you turn to?
We must have a understanding that we are to live in a constant state of repentance. Humbling ourselves constantly before the eyes of God with an understanding that The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!
Thank you Lord for your Word ever lasting. Help us to live in a state of repentance, confessing our sins, and seeking accountability in our lives if necessary.- In Jesus Name- Amen
