Mat 11 v 20-30; Acts 16 v 16-40; Ps 26 v 1-12; Ex 7 v 1-9 v 35
The unrepentant heart

Neither Pharaoh and his people, nor those whom Jesus preached to believed and honoured God, even after seeing the miracles that were performed by Moses, Aaron and Jesus respectively, while Paul and Silas were thrown into prison for casting out the spirit of divination.

Will you say like David did in Ps 26 v 2, “Examine me, O Lord, and try me; Test my mind and my heart…” Will you ask the Lord to soften your heart today and open your mind to the meaning and understanding of His word, so that you might believe and be saved or will you harden your heart against the living God?

Jesus says that He is gentle and humble in heart, that His yoke is easy and His burden is light and that everyone who is weary and heavy-laden should come to Him, for He will give you rest. (Mat 11 v 28 – 30).

Have you walked among those who practice wickedness for far too long? Those who deceive, pretend and thrive, while doing evil? Today is the day to seek the Lord with all your heart. To walk in His righteousness and truth, just as David did.

The day of judgement is coming and God has been patient for very long. Do not be caught without oil in your lamp. Call on the Name of the Lord and seek Him while He can still be found. For a famine is coming when people will long for His word (Amos 8 v 11).

My prayer is that the Lord will save you from this perverted world. May He open your spiritual eyes and ears. May He renew your spirit so that you will become a new creation, washed in the blood of Jesus.
