Refreshment

Acts 3:19-20

Scripture:
Repent then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, tat times of refreshing may come from the Lord, and that He may send the Messiah, who has been appointed for you-even Jesus.

Application:
When we repent, God promises not only to wipe out our sins, but to bring spiritual refreshment. Repentance at first may seem painful because it is hard to give up certain sins. But God will you a better way.
See Hosea 6:3

Do you feel the need for refreshment? What do you need to do stop doing to experience this refreshing from God?

My take on all this....it is so hard to give up certain sins. We all lie to ourselves and say well these really aren't sins right? I mean, I'm not breaking the law, or anything of that nature. But anything that takes our focus off of God and is displeasing to Him is a sin. I honestly need to sit and think, and make a list of what I need to stop doing so I can refreshed in Him!

My prayer list tonight:
I'm asking God to shake things up in my life! I want to experience a fire for Him again, and while I love love love Him to the deepest, darkest depths of my soul, I have grown stagnant in my prayer and bible study life. I need to be awoken again. I am praying for my sweet friend Nancy and her walk with the Lord. I pray she grows a deeper relationship with Him and finds His will for her life. I pray for her children that they would find Jesus to be their Father and Savior! I pray for balance in my life, I need to prioritize things so I make more room for Him and less of me.

Can I pray for you? Send me a message or comment here and I will add you to my prayer list!



-Glory be to God
