A Favorable Reception
February 25th, 2018
Psalm 33:13-22
Asking for forgiveness can be very daunting. We are not always sure of the reception we will receive. However, because of His unfailing love, we do not have to fear coming in repentance to God.
God’s love for us is clearly revealed in the salvation He provided for us when He sent His Son to die on the cross for our sins. He not only invites us, but He also made a sure provision for our salvation and deliverance. This is why we can come to Him with boldness. We try to be independent and fix things ourselves. The only problem is that we do not have the capacity to fully fix things. Only God does.
This is why we put our hope in Him. We admit our helplessness and cry out for His intervention. We come in humility and submission, putting all our trust in Him. Even this is impossible apart from the help of God’s Holy Spirit. The Spirit reveals our sinfulness, but He also reveals God’s great love for us. In this way, we can come to God with the confidence that we will not be rejected.
