Isaiah 55:7

"Let the wicked forsake his way, And the unrighteous man his thoughts; Let him return to the LORD, And He will have mercy on him; And to our God, For He will abundantly pardon" Isaiah 55:7

Some things are predictable. I flip the switch in my bedroom... and the lights come on. I turn the key in my door... and the door opens.

Isaiah tells us of one thing that is very predictable. When a person seeks the Lord, he abandons his evil ways. How does this happen? Why is it predictable? Simple. Only those who truly desire to have their sin-burden lifted will seek God. Only those who truly seek God will have the burden lifted. And only those who truly have their burdens lifted will desire to walk in a new way. We call this process "conversion." Conversion involves "repentance." And repentance is indicated by a complete change in direction.

Isaiah tells us that God will have compassion on him. Our heavenly Father is longing to receive new children into His household. His "adoption agency" is never closed. He has already filled out all the paperwork and has paid all the fees. Nothing is left except for individuals to "seek Him and forsake their evil ways." God's love will overflow any such individual and cleanse him from the sins that have stained him from birth. God will "abundantly pardon" those sins. They will be wiped off the books and there will remain no trace of them on Judgment Day!

My friends, if you know you are walking in the wrong direction, turn around. Repent. Seek God. He is waiting for you. He has been waiting a long time. His arms are open wide longing to hold you close. Call on Him. The time has not yet passed. Amen and Amen.

Now, I have a question for You.

Are YOU Right with God?

True Christianity is not about attending a particular church, or how your parents raised you, or what country you were born in. Being a Christian means that you have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, that He is your Savior. It's not good enough that your priest, pastor, mother, or aunt knows Jesus, you must know Him for yourself. They cannot believe in Him for you, you must believe for yourself. They cannot repent for you, you must repent for yourself.

Jesus is everywhere all the time. He can hear you now if you ask Him for forgiveness. Please turn your life over to Him NOW. Time slips by so quickly, don't miss this opportunity. If you want to pray and ask Jesus to be your Savior, you can say a prayer something like this:

"Jesus, I know that I have sinned against you. I know the truth is that I have sinned by my own choice, and I am the one responsible for it. I know that I have earned punishment from You, and that the fair punishment would be death. Jesus, I believe that You died in my place. Forgive me for my sin. I cannot cover or take my sin away, I am relying totally and only on You. You are the only one who can save me. I reject my sin, I turn away from it, I repent. Come into my life, take away my sin, and show me how to live my life in a way that is right and pleasing to You." Thank You Jesus, Amen

If you have prayed this, YOU ARE SAVED! You are now completely forgiven, a new creation, innocent in the eyes of God, please e-mail me and let me know and I will guide you toward Fellowship and Baptism. Welcome to the family of God! Hallelujah, Amen and Amen.
