Scripture:
Joel 2:12-13- "Now therefore," says the Lord, "Turn to Me with all your heart, with fasting , with weeping, and with mourning>' So, rend your heart and not your garments. Return to the Lord your God for He is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and He relents from doing harm.
Observation:
God is telling the people that the day of the Lord is coming to earth. He wants the people to be in right standing with Him by repenting of their sins. Joel 2 ends with the promise that whoever calls on the Name of the Lord will be saved.
Application:
Being truly sorry for my sins, seeking forgiveness from God Almighty, and repentance is very important to my loving Father.
Prayer:
Father, just as Joel says, You are gracious, merciful, slow to anger, of great kindness. You don't want to harm us, Lord. You want to bless us. Father, thank You that we can return and turn to You in repentance and for forgiveness. Jesus, please help Your Church and my country to do just that. Holy Spirit, please light Your Holy Fire in us, and change our lives. Father God, nothing is impossible with You. Bless You, Lord. In Jesus Name. Amen.
