Be Willing to Repent When Wrong


Revelation 3:19

Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and repent.

Our God is a just God. He loves everyone with the greatest love ever known to mankind. However, God chooses to correct his own children who have accepted Jesus, his son, in their heart at times.

Here's a list of things that the Bible tells us is important to God in following him:

1. So many talk about humility these days. Humility is admitting when you're wrong and repenting of wrong. This is one big character trait that comes with humility in the eyes of God, to repent when he corrects.

2. Loyalty is agreeing with God in every way. When God's children disagree with him it grieves his heart, and whatever seed they sow in disagreement they will reap the consequences the Bible tells us.

Galatians 6:7
Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.  

3. Godly love is loving God FIRST, then we're able to love all others through him
(I John 4).

4. Obedience is doing all that God asks us to do.

I Samuel 15:22
But Samuel replied: Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as obeying the Lord? To Obey is better than sacrifice..." 
5. Growing in Christ is seeking a transformed mind through the washing of the WORD - believers read it (Romans 12:1-2).
6. Forgiveness is done through the perspective of God and the power of the Holy Spirit.
7. Relationship is not about religion, it's about communication with our Father in heaven and yearning to remain in contact through constant prayer.

When we fail to love God by obeying and fostering good relationship with him, eventually it leads to his discipline.
Remember, God disciplines his children whom he loves, and when he does, the heart that loves God repents and seeks personal heart change.

God loves a humble heart that follows after him closely and repents when there is wrong doing.

Heaven's Influence

  Psalm 121:1-2 I lift up my eyes to the mountains— where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord , the Maker of heaven and earth. Psalms 121:1‭-‬2 NIV January 8, 2024 Vision and Word of Prophecy received Jan. 7, 2024 by Laura Bovard The Lord has released me to share the Word I received yesterday, and, in addition, he told me to share the vision that I received as well. VISION - HEAVEN'S INFLUENCE I saw 2 oblong windows or openings with jagged edges. One was a view into earth's activities. One was into heaven's activities. Both looked dim, and momentarily, I saw into earth's opening where people were talking and moving around involved in earthly activities. Then I could see a few people inside the open heaven window standing and looking out and observing and there were angels flying back and forth in the heavenly, blue sky behind them. Then my sight was drawn back to a wider scope, and I saw that the heavenly oblong window overlapped the earthly one some, l

Be Free to Receive all That God Has for Me in 2023

 I received a word from the Lord about this year on January 22, 2023  " Be free to receive ALL that God has for me 2023!" That word is for you too! How are we free? We become free when we know the truth from God's Word.  Galatians 5:1 AMP It was for this freedom that Christ set us free [completely liberating us]; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery [which you once removed]. God is moving forward and the time is upon us to take our land back from the bully of darkness - the enemy, the devil.  Believers do not need to be ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  Romans 1:16 NKJV   For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. IT HAS THE POWER OF GOD TO SALVATION FOR EVERYONE WHO BELIEVES. The Greek word "salvation" in Romans 1:16 is Soteria (Strongs # 4991) It means salvation, deliverance. God's rescue whi
