Today's Devotion:
"Godly Sorrow"
In the classified section of the newspaper an
ad appeared that read:
"I would like to announce that the ad I put in
this newspaper last Saturday was an error.
I WILL be responsible for any debts incurred
by my wife.
And I will begin payments as soon as I'm out
of the hospital."
_______SCRIPTURE____________
2 Cor 7:10
For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation
not to be repented of:
but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
KJV
_______THOUGHT______________
Godly sorrow is produced when God works
conviction in a person.
God's Holy Spirit works on the heart to show
a person they are outside of God's will because
of sin.
Godly sorrow also convinces one that Jesus is
the ONLY one who can bring forgiveness and
eternal salvation.
Godly sorrow results in repentance.
The hurt and pain in a person heart is because
of conviction and convincing by God's Holy
Spirit.
This is spiritual pain, and leads one to plead
with God to forgive.
Godly sorrow is wrought BY God FOR man!
It is by God's grace that those three things
happen, because "salvation is of the Lord."
(See Jonah 2:9)
This sorrow brings salvation (forgiveness and
eternal life) when one genuinely repents to
God.
And, this sorrow is PERMANENT in the
saved person's life.
The sorrow "of the world" works DEATH.
It produces stress, anxiety, destruction of peace,
and ruins happiness.
But, Godly sorrow brings LIFE!
I said all that to say this:
Repentance is the FIRST step to receive
REVIVAL!
If you would be revived daily, repent daily!
Love ya!
