Psalm 106:15 (NKJV) 15 And He gave them their request, But sent leanness into their soul.
This Psalm reminds us the Israelites did not understand, they did not remember and they rebelled against God their redeemer, but God still spared them for His Great Names sake. This sounds so much like us today, misunderstanding what God wants, forgetting what He has done and living a self absorbed life that has little place or time for our Maker. The Psalmist writes, He gave them what they wanted (the desires of the heart) and then allowed the work of self centeredness to destroy their relationship with the Savior.
It seems as though little time is left to correct the devastating spiral of destruction, we have embraced. God has been faithful, we have not, however, the repentant will experience forgiveness and salvation for Eternity. John the baptist preached repentance, Peter preached repentance, John the revelator preached repentance all in the Name of Jesus who also preached, "Repent or you will likewise perish." Luke 13:5
Friend, we have time but it must be today, 2 Corinthians 6:2, right now will you acknowledge that Jesus is the only way to heaven and you are willing to give your entire life to Him, trusting in Him only? Romans 10:9
Heavenly Father we are looking to You, we are looking up, You alone are God help us to see, your Glory in your Son Jesus. May we acknowledge with every breath that our hope is in You. Amen
