Jeremiah 31:3

No matter the miracles God performed, the blessings He bestowed, or the rescues He delivered, Israel repeatedly turned against Him. Yet though they were disloyal and disobedient, God never abandoned His chosen people. And all because of His everlasting love. A love that He generously gives to all who love Him, including us.

And just like Israel, when we turn away from God, He never turns away from us. He may discipline us, distant Himself from us, or allow us to suffer the consequences of our actions. But He will never forsake us or stop loving us. For His love is perfect, true, and everlasting. And out of that love, no matter who we are or what we do, when we come to Him in repentance, Go will always restore us back to Himself. So in the midst of troubles and trials, we can find joy knowing that when we run to God, He will welcome us with open arms.

Acts 17:31

We’ve all heard the phrase, “Ignorance of the law is no defense. ”With all of their culture, reasoning and education, the Athenians were ignorant when it came to the one true God. And so along with the gospel, Paul gave them a stern warning. Soon God’s Son, Jesus Christ, would be returning to judge the earth and its people. And no longer would God overlook the ignorance of those who reject Him. This warning Paul gave to the Athenians, he gives to us as well. The time for ignorance is over. Now is the time for repentance. For the days are growing darker and the appointed day will soon be upon us. Christ in all of His glory will be retuning to judge the world in righteousness. And ignorance of the Lord will be no defense.

Job 22:21

When Job was in the middle of his suffering, his friend Eliphaz tried to give him some sage advice. “Repent and return to the Lord.” However in this case, sin wasn’t the cause of Job’s problems. Yet even though Eliphaz’s words of wisdom didn’t apply to Job, they are great advice for us. When we have sinned against God and strayed off His path, broken fellowship results. But when we come to Him in confession and repentance, our hearts can once again find peace and joy. And by remaining in the Lord, establishing His Word in our hearts, and walking in obedience, we can experience the eternal goodness of Jesus.

Psalm 51:2

If there’s anyone in the Bible that shows even the greatest can fall, it’s king David. Even though he was personally chosen by God, David committed horrendous sins. But what David’s story also shows, is God’s never ending love and forgiveness. For when David truly wanted to make a change and come back to Him, God eagerly welcomed him back. And God promises to do the same for us. When we return to God in true sorrow and repentance, He will forgive our sin, welcome us into His open arms, and faithfully cleanse us of our iniquities!

Acts 2:38

Change is hard. And real godly change is impossible on our own. But out of His great love, God never expects His children to go it alone. That’s why the moment we receive Jesus as our Savior, the Holy Spirit indwells us, becoming our permanent Helper in all things. Now the once seemingly impossible becomes possible, through the strength of the Spirit. He guides, teaches, and convicts us of our sin against God. The Holy Spirit is our divine gift from God, and is our eternal source of revelation, wisdom, and power.

Psalm 32

Most Biblical scholars agree that Psalm 32 was written by David after he was confronted by the prophet Nathan over the sin he had committed with Bathsheba. When reading David’s words, you can feel how his heart aches with the pain of his sin, and in turn his joy and thankfulness at the forgiving nature of God. …
