#KnowingJESUS Daily Devotional – COME BACK HOME

The Love of the Father is one that is unique in all stance. One that leaves the ninety nine and wont stop until it has brought home the one that was lost.

The Love of the Father is one that is unique in all stance. One that leaves the ninety nine and wont stop until it has brought home the one that was lost.

Hosea 1:10. Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people, there it shall be said unto them, Ye are the sons of the living God.

The devil and the Worldling have given God the Father, our loving, caring and compassionate God and Father, a name that is not His. God has never been and will never be a tyrant. He is not just a God who is interested in sending people to hell, without giving then long privilege to repent.

THE REASON WHY MANY PEOPLE HAVE GONE TO HELL AND HAVE BEEN DAMNED, WAS BECAUSE, THEY HAVE TAKEN GOD’S PATIENCE FOR GRANTED AND DESPISED HIS LONG SUFFERING.

Romans 2:4. Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

2 Peter 3:9. The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

Never listen to the deception of the devil, there is no height or dept anyone has gone in sin, if such will truly repent and turn, to God, such people shall obtain pardon.

Micah 7:18-19. Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in mercy. He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.

THE CHILDREN OF ISREAL HAD PROVOKED GOD SO TERRIBLY AND ALL EFFORTS TO BRING THEM BACK TO RECTITUDE PROVED ABORTIVE.

Hosea 1:6. And she conceived again, and bare a daughter. And God said unto him, Call her name Loruhamah: for I will no more have mercy upon the house of Israel; but I will utterly take them away.

Hosea 1:8-9. Now when she had weaned Loruhamah, she conceived, and bare a son. Then said God, Call his name Loammi: for ye are not my people, and I will not be your God.

BUT NOW, SEE WHAT HE TOLD HOSEA, THE PROPHET AGAIN, BECAUSE OF HIS LONG-SUFFERING AND FORBEARANCE.

Hosea 1:10. Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people, there it shall be said unto them, Ye are the sons of the living God.

SETTLE IT IN YOUR HEART THEN, IF ANYONE SHOULD BE DAMNED AND END UP IN HELL, IT IS NOT THAT GOD WAS TOO HARD, IT WAS BECAUSE SUCH PEOPLE DESPISE THE LONG SUFFERING OF THE LORD.

This shall never be your portion in Jesus name, please take advantage of His time bound willingness to pardon sincere and penitent sinner or backslider.

Isaiah 55:6-7. Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

See how the scriptures affirmed the long suffering of God on people that were not people of God previously, but obtain His uncommon pardon and mercy and now have become people of God.

No doubt this is referring to you, an alien to God before, but now a member of commonwealth of Israel . Hallelujah .

Hosea 2:23: And I will sow her unto me in the earth; and I will have mercy upon her that had not obtained mercy; and I will say to them which were not my people, Thou art my people; and they shall say, Thou art my God.

Romans 9:25: -10. As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved. And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living God.

If the lots of saints of old were like this, what happens to believers of all ages and you in particular under a better covenant and better promises?

Hebrews 8:6 But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.

SEE THE MOST GRACIOUS AND BETTER PROMISES.

John 6:37. All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

Ephesians 2:11-16. Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;

That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;

Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:

1 Peter 2:9 -10. But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.

SEE EXAMPLES OF BENEFICIARIES OF THIS PROMISE, WHOEVER COMES TO ME, I WILL NOT CAST OUT.

1. David, after committing immorality and killing Uriah

2 Samuel 12:9-13. Wherefore hast thou despised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in his sight? thou hast killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.

Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thine house; because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy wife.

Thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thine own house, and I will take thy wives before thine eyes, and give them unto thy neighbour, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun.

For thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun. And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the Lord. And Nathan said unto David, The Lord also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die.

2. Peter after publicly denying Him three times.

Mark 16:5-7. And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted.

And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.

But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you.

3. The malefactor crucified with Christ.

Luke 23:39-43. And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.

But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.

And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise.

4. Paul after fiercely persecuting believers.

1 Timothy 1:12-13. And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry; Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

Beloved, what are you waiting for, take advantage of this better covenant and better promise and smoothen every soiled relationship between you and the Lord.

JESUS’S UNCHANGING PROMISE TO SINCERE AND PENITENT SINNERS AND BACKSLIDERS. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT.

Friend, I am sure you are persuaded now about the true picture of our loving Father in heaven. So why are multitude still trooping to hell today? Or why will many missed the dawning rapture?

The answer to this is very simple and clear. Impenitence, unrepentant and hardness of heart. . This can never be you and will never be in Jesus name.

Romans 2:3-6. And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?

Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

Romans 1:28-32. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents.

Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

But for the likes of you getting ready for the coming of the Lord, see the right attitude.

Luke 15:14-24. And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want. And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.

And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him. And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father’s have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!

I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.

And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.

And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.

But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:

And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry: For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.

The hand of the Lord is still stretched towards you, waiting for you to come back home fully.

Isaiah 1:18-19. Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:

2 Corinthians 6:2. (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)

Hebrews 3:7-8. Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice, Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

see you at the top in Jesus name.
