True Repentance III

 ‘Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, “I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life.” John 8:12

‘Then Jesus stood up again and said to the woman, “Where are your accusers? Didn’t even one of them condemn you?” “No, Lord,” she said. And Jesus said, “Neither do I. Go and sin no more” John 8:10-11. That means the power to sin no more is resident in anyone that follows Jesus because the Word of God says anyone that follows Jesus does not live in darkness. ‘Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, “I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life” John 8:12. That is the key! Jesus didn’t say, “these things will go gradually. You were sleeping with twenty men in the past but now they are just five. You are trying”. Jesus didn’t say, “you previously had five sex partners but now you have one that you are maintaining. You are trying, you have come a long way”. The reason a lot of people remain in the captivity of sexual sin is because they excuse themselves. God is saying to you today, “Go and sin no more”. But I have good news for you. If you continue God will expose you, embarrass you, and He will make you a public spectacle. He will do that just so you can find true repentance. I can give you several examples, when God exposed their sin then they fell on their faces. But as long as they keep doing it, they will say a short prayer that usually reads something like this ‘God forgive me, I cover myself with the Blood of Jesus. You say that if we confess our sins, You are faithful and just to forgive us’. They say this prayer before going to church because they know that church is dangerous and something can happen to them but they don’t want to change. They step out of church and continue in sin. Who are you deceiving? You will find repentance today, in Jesus name. After God had dealt with David, he said to God ‘Have mercy upon me, O God,
According to Your lovingkindness;
According to the multitude of Your tender mercies,
Blot out my transgressions. For I acknowledge my transgressions,
And my sin is always before me. Against You, You only, have I sinned,
And done this evil in Your sight’ Ps.51:1, 3-4.But you see God is saying to you today, “are you going to find true repentance or are you going to linger and wait for the explosion”.

Prayer:Have mercy upon me, O God,
According to Your loving kindness;
According to the multitude of Your tender mercies,
Blot out my transgressions, in Jesus Name.
