Has God rejected us?
Is He so angry with us, with you and with me, that there is no hope?
Have we passed the point of no return?
"“Woe to the rebellious children,” says the LORD, “Who take counsel, but not of Me, And who devise plans, but not of My Spirit, That they may add sin to sin;"(Isaiah 30:1 NKJV)
God made a way for His children to walk in health and to have security in the midst of the storms, but because of our unrepented sins, we are cut off from His provisions! Because of the hardness of our hearts, we seek anything and everything, but Him, in our quest for deliverance!
He is our last resort! If all else fails - pray!
"Give us help from trouble, For the help of man is useless."(Psalms 108:12 NKJV)
If we would but turn to Him!
"For thus says the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel: “In returning and rest you shall be saved; In quietness and confidence shall be your strength.” But you would not," (Isaiah 30:15 NKJV)
If you cry out to God for help in your time of need, He will be there! However, you must turn or turn back to Him. There is no help for those who refuse to follow Him! For Him to rescue you from destruction, you have to, MUST, surrender to Him! If you turn to Him with your whole heart and make Him your LORD, He will deliver you, but it MUST be on His terms! He is God, you are not!
He wants to be your Provider, but you MUST humble yourself and become obedient to His WORD! You MUST repent of your sins; the hidden sins you think He can't see! The ones you have stuffed so far down in your heart, that even you have forgotten! Confess and repent of the unforgiveness, the bitterness, the fear, the anger, the judgments that you have held onto, that separate you from Him!
"Now go, write it before them on a tablet, And note it on a scroll, That it may be for time to come, Forever and ever: That this is a rebellious people, Lying children, Children who will not hear the law of the LORD; Who say to the seers, “Do not see,” And to the prophets, “Do not prophesy to us right things; Speak to us smooth things, prophesy deceits. Get out of the way, Turn aside from the path, Cause the Holy One of Israel To cease from before us.” Therefore thus says the Holy One of Israel: “Because you despise this word, And trust in oppression and perversity, And rely on them, Therefore this iniquity shall be to you Like a breach ready to fall, A bulge in a high wall, Whose breaking comes suddenly, in an instant. And He shall break it like the breaking of the potter’s vessel, Which is broken in pieces; He shall not spare. So there shall not be found among its fragments A shard to take fire from the hearth, Or to take water from the cistern.” For thus says the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel: “In returning and rest you shall be saved; In quietness and confidence shall be your strength.” But you would not,"(Isaiah 30:8-15 NKJV)
"Turn us back to You, Oh LORD, and we will be restored!"
Even so - MARANATHA!
