True repentance

[RMathews]

Galatians 5:19

Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.( Galatians 5:19 )

True repentance must have the following characteristics:

1) It must be a sorrow from the bottom of the heart as sins have their roots in our hearts.

2) It should be a sorrow for all sins without exception.
One disease is enough to kill a man, one chain maybe enough to keep a man in bondage, and one unguarded door in a fortress may be enough to let in the enemies.

3) True repentance will automatically result in some definite act of restitution eg: restoration of stolen properties, offering apology.

4) True repentance will result in the avoidance of all circumstances which lead to sin.

5) True repentance results in the thirst for opportunities to do the good.

6) It may also result in more time given to prayer, cutting down idle hours etc

7) True repentance is God centered and so is always hopeful.

 

[Articles]

Dear Lord, we come to You in prayer on behalf of RMathews, asking that You would grant him the grace to turn away from the works of the flesh that are listed in Galatians 5:19. Help him to recognize the destructive nature of these sins and to turn away from them so that he may inherit the Kingdom of God. Give him strength to resist temptation and to choose righteousness instead. We ask this in Jesus' Name, Amen.

Psalm 37:4: Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
Matthew 6:33: But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

Let Us Pray: God I ask You in Jesus' name bless me with everything I stand in need of, and everything You want me to have. Bless me to prosper, have excellent health, and never stop growing in the grace and knowledge of Christ Jesus. Bless me with love, power, and a sound mind. Heal me in every area of my life. God bless me with Your favor, joy, knowledge, wisdom, peace, protection, prosperity, strength, and success in all You have called me to do. And bless me to do all You have called me to do in the spirit of excellence for Your glory.

God bless me with the knowledge, strength, desire and passion to always delight myself in Lord and seek first the kingdom of God. Bless me to know You, love You, and strengthen me to live my life to honor and please You. God cleansed me of everything in my life that breaks your heart. Let me be a light in this dark world, lifting You up in the lifestyle that I live. Let the world see that Jesus Christ is my Savior and Lord of ALL of my life. Protect me God from all the plans of the enemy of my soul. God all that I have asked of You, in this prayer, please do the same for the writer of the prayer, all those who truly love me, care about me, want Your best for me, and pray Your best for me. God please forever honor this prayer over each of our lives. God Thank You. Thank You Lord Jesus. Amen, so be it by faith, and by faith, it is so in Jesus' name.
