🙏🏼 The Meaning and Importance of Repentance

Repentance is more than a quick “sorry” or a moment of regret. In Scripture, it means turning away from sin and turning toward God with a surrendered heart. And it’s rooted in His love—Romans 2:4 tells us, “God’s kindness is intended to lead you to repentance.” Our Father calls us to repent not to condemn us, but to restore us. Jesus began His ministry with the words, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near” (Matthew 4:17). Repentance is essential for salvation—it is the doorway to forgiveness—but it is not a “hall pass” to keep sinning. God is omniscient. He knows our thoughts and motives. We can’t fool Him with empty confessions. True repentance is marked by genuine remorse, a willingness to change, and a heart that seeks His ways. King David wrote, “A broken and contrite heart, O God, You will not despise” (Psalm 51:17). This kind of humility is not self-pity—it’s love for God and grief over anything that separates us from Him. Even after salvation, repentance remains part of our daily devotion. Jesus taught us to pray, “Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors” (Matthew 6:12). Confession keeps our relationship with God vibrant. Like in any relationship, unaddressed wrongs create distance—repentance clears that distance. Think of repentance as a lifeline. Without it, we drift; with it, we remain tethered to God’s heart. Repentance is not about shame—it’s about freedom. It’s not condemnation—it’s restoration. And it’s a gift from a loving Father who calls His children back when they wander. Prayer: Lord, thank You for Your kindness that draws us near. Give us tender, honest hearts that truly desire to turn from sin and walk in Your ways. Keep us anchored to You until the day we see You face to face. In Jesus’ name, Amen. #Forgiveness #Atonement #Repentance #God #Jesus #Prayer #Salvation

Prophecy Fulfilled: The Life of Yeshua (Jesus) – Episode 52 “The Beautiful Offering & The Betrayer” (Matthew 26:1–16; Mark 14:1–11; Luke 22:1–6; John 12:1–8) The teachings on the Mount of Olives had ended. The warnings had been given. The call to readiness had been spoken. Now the final movement of Yeshua’s earthly mission quietly unfolded like the closing of a curtain. Passover was only two days away. Jerusalem was filling with travelers, families, and worshippers, unaware that history was turning beneath their feet. ⸻ ⚠️ The Plot in the Shadows While the crowds prepared for the feast, the mood inside the home of Caiaphas the high priest was tense. The chief priests and elders gathered in secret. Their voices low. Their minds fixed. Their hearts hardened. “Not during the festival,” they whispered, “or the people may riot.” They didn’t want justice. They wanted control. They wanted silence. They wanted Yeshua removed before His following grew beyond their reach. And in that quiet meeting, the plan was sealed. Across the city, another heart was growing dark. Judas Iscariot—one of the Twelve who walked with Yeshua, ate with Him, learned from Him— made a decision that would echo through eternity. He slipped away to the chief priests and offered to hand Yeshua over. They were delighted. They counted out silver. And Judas accepted. The betrayal had begun. 🌿 The House at Bethany While the leaders plotted His death, Yeshua walked toward a small home in Bethany— a home filled not with schemes, but with love. It belonged to friends: Martha, always serving. Lazarus, alive because Yeshua called him from the grave. And Mary… whose heart understood Him more deeply than most. They prepared a dinner in His honor. The atmosphere warm, gentle, grateful. Then Mary did something unexpected— something extravagant, costly, and breathtaking in its devotion. ✝️ CONTINUED IN COMMENTS ⬇️⬇️⬇️ #Bible #God #Jesus #Devotion #Faith #Love #Salvation

Romans 8.1 "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." #JesusLovesYou #Heaven #Hell #Salvation
