Joel 2: 13 “And rend your heart, and not your garments…”
Don’t gamble with God concerning your time and your heart,
both are too valuable. Procrastination and Justification can have painful
results both spiritually and physically. That’s the power and promise offered
in repentance; the Father does not hesitate in His restoration of our spirit. Don’t
deceive oneself with religious acts of the heart, deep remorse was often shown by
tearing one’s clothes. The Father does not call us to outward displays of penitence
without true inward repentance (1 Sa 16:7). Even Assyria was willing and able
to respond to Jonah’s warning and got their heart right. Make sure your
attitude towards the Father is correct, and not just your appearance. Remember,
man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart.
Failure isn’t final, but lack of repentance keeps the wound
from healing… HSAY
