God Wants To Forgive You

Micah 7:18/19 “Who is a God like You, Pardoning iniquity And passing over the transgression of the remnant of His heritage? He does not retain His anger forever, Because He delights in mercy. 19 He will again have compassion on us, And will subdue our iniquities. You will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea”  Micah asks here in reverence, ‘how come is it that we do all these things wrong against you and others, yet you bestow on us mercy & grace’?

V19 [NIRV] “Once again you will show loving concern for us. You will completely wipe out the evil things we’ve done”

   What an awesome God we have, that He will do this for us, that we can have a personal connection Him. V18 “Who is a God like You” Seriously, I feel what a God we have, that He is willing too, just like you, Think of it like this your trying to write a letter and you make a mistake half way through and have screw up the letter this what God is doing for us here, He gives us a fresh page to start again. As is ..V19 “He will throw all [yes all] our sins into the bottom of the Sea” .. just let that sink in for minuet.

OK??

Let the following remarks ring in your ears in the coming days ..

~ What do you imagine about God after you’ve sinned?

~ Do you imagine an angry God, quick to you away?

~ Do you imagine Him indignant that you failed yet again?

   The Bible assures that His anger & disappointment in us passes quick.. Psalms V6:1 “O Lord, do not rebuke me in Your anger, Nor chasten me in Your hot displeasure.” .. Our plea to God to with hold only His anger towards… V30:1 “For His anger is but for a moment, His favour is for life; Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning” His displeasures does abait here, that does not mean we are to repeat our sins, hence why we turned away from our old sinful lives...V85:4 “Restore us, O God of our salvation, And cause Your anger toward us to cease” ..Isaiah 12:1  "And in that day you will say: “O Lord, I will praise You; Though You were angry with me, Your anger is turned away, and You comfort me. He actually delights in giving His Mercy, to humble and repentant heart .. Psalms 31:7  “I will be glad and rejoice in Your mercy, For You have considered my trouble; You have known my soul in adversities”

   God really takes no joy in judgement, that is if we truly want to please him, we need to stop trying to hide our sins & failures from Him. Instead bring them out and lay them at His feet, in the light of day and forsake them, so God can help us deal with them. Then, after this, showing us His tender mercy and grace.

For he is Good

For he is Good

Ezra 3:11

“For He is good, For His mercy endures forever”

   Friends I have this short message from God put upon my heart to share with you. This must come as no surprise to you, in that God only wants to do good by us. This means having a firm foundation to build our faith upon, and that is on our Lord and Saviour Christ Jesus, for without Him we might just as well build our faith on sand.

Matthew 7:26-27 “But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.”

   There will come a time, maybe for a nano-second, or altogether, that you let go of God because you have become despondent, so you have thrown your hands up, declaring ‘you don’t want anymore to do with Him.’ If so let me assure, just because you have. . .

. . . God is still holding onto you

. . . God still cares about you

. . . Gods arms are wide just waiting for you to come back home.

So my Brothers & Sisters always remember..

“His mercy endures forever”
