THE JOY OF A LOST SOUL COMING HOME
(Nuggets from Luke 15:24)
One beautiful thing about the GRACE OF GOD that brings SALVATION is that it is all-inclusive.
No matter how deep your sins are, or how dirty your past is, EVERY LOST SOUL HAS A CHANCE TO COME HOME, WHILE THE OFFER OF GRACE LASTS.
Every sin has a beginning. On the front end, sin always looks ENTICING, FUN, SATISFYING and PLEASURABLE, but sin will always take you to places you never envisaged or intended to go.
In his dire situation, the prodigal son came to his senses and decided to return to his father, admitting his wrongs and seeking forgiveness.
He got tired of his folly and decided to repent. REPENTANCE is a powerful step towards HEALING and RESTORATION. Acknowledging your mistakes and seeking forgiveness opens the door to RENEWAL and RECONCILIATION. It shows the importance of humility and the courage to admit when you have gone astray.
The father, seeing his son from a distance, ran to him, embraced him, and celebrated his return with a grand feast, despite the son’s previous actions. The father’s response exemplifies UNCONDITIONAL LOVE and FORGIVENESS. It teaches us about the boundless grace of God, who welcomes us back with open arms, no matter how far we have strayed. It also challenges us to extend forgiveness and love to others, mirroring the father’s example.
The parable of the prodigal son typifies God's EXPRESSION towards a LOST SINNER who was eventually FOUND by God's GRACE, and the REACTION that ensues in Heaven amongst the Angels. This joy is inexplicable because the worth of a soul is INESTIMABLE, and one soul delivered from the paws of satan is a win for the Kingdom of God, hence the jubilation.
Just like the father of the prodigal son, who didn't recount the rascal life of his repentant son, God will not recount or remember your sins anymore because HE FORGIVES AND FORGETS, provided you ACKNOWLEDGE your sins, REPENT, CONFESS and FORSAKE THEM.
SPREAD THE MESSAGE FAR AND WIDE, THE ARMS OF GOD ARE WIDE OPEN TO RECEIVE EVERY REPENTANT SINNER; JUBILATION AWAITS YOU.
This is HOLINESS CHALLENGE
