God\u00a0asked his people – Israelites – to repent from their sin so that they can qualify for his blessings.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
God said, \u201cWash yourselves, make yourselves clean; Put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes. <\/em><\/p>\n Cease to do evil, Learn to do good; Seek justice, Rebuke the oppressor; Defend the fatherless,<\/p>\n Plead for the widow. \u201cCome now, and let us reason together,\u201d Says the Lord, \u201cThough your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool.<\/p>\n If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land; But if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured by the sword\u201d; for the mouth of the Lord has spoken\u201d (Isaiah 1:16-20).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0 God is more interested in seeing his children repent from their sins than to make\u00a0them suffer terrible punishment of\u00a0hell fire.<\/p>\n He will forgive our sins if\u00a0we confess and repent from them.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, the Creator would be left with no other option than to exert his tough\u00a0judgment\u00a0if we refuse to repent from our unrighteousness.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Therefore, no Christian should take God for granted and indulge in sin.<\/p>\n We must operate in openness before God so that he can continue to take pleasure over our lives.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Dear God, my goal and aspiration is to satisfy you with holy living, so that I can qualify for your eternal kingdom.<\/p>\n Help me to genuinely repent from my sins, and empower me to improve my relationship with you.<\/p>\n Anoint me\u00a0with\u00a0the grace to spend the rest of my life in a way that satisfies you. Let me\u00a0walk uprightly before you, and let your Holy Spirit richly dwell in me so that I can remain rapturable!<\/p>\n For in the name of Jesus Christ I make my requests. Amen.<\/p>\n <\/p>\nTags: Blessing Your Pastor Scripture<\/a>, forgiveness<\/a>, God's blessing<\/a>, Lesson on repentance<\/a>, Praise God Of Whom All Blessings Flow Lyrics<\/a>, Repentance A Joyful Choice<\/a>, Repentance And Conversion<\/a>, Sin<\/a> God\u00a0asked his people – Israelites – to repent from their sin so that they can qualify for his blessings. …<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":49200,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[43],"tags":[539,149,244,353,225,540,355,270],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5661"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5661"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5661\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/49200"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5661"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5661"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jamestaiwo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5661"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Lesson on\u00a0Repentance to Enjoy God’s Blessing<\/strong><\/h2>\n
