My friends, the Bible is filled with the cries of a loving God, pleading for His people to return to Him, to trust Him, and to walk in His ways. He has proven Himself faithful in every generation, and He is calling you today. Trust God and return to Him now.
The Lord says, “Return to Me, and I will return to you” (Malachi 3:7). He has not forgotten you, and He has not abandoned you. He is near, waiting for you to turn back to Him. He promises, “I will never [under any circumstances] desert you [nor give you up nor leave you without support]” (Hebrews 13:5).
Throughout history, God has revealed His power to save and His heart to forgive. Trust and return to God, for He is merciful:
- “The Lord will fight for you while you [only need to] keep silent and remain calm” (Exodus 14:14). He delivered Israel from Pharaoh’s armies, and He will deliver you from whatever enslaves you.
- He said to Joshua, “Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified or dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go” (Joshua 1:9). That same God is with you today.
- “No weapon that is formed against you will succeed” (Isaiah 54:17). In Christ, you are more than a conqueror.
The psalmist declared, “The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear?” (Psalm 27:1). “The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit” (Psalm 34:18). My friends, if your heart is broken, if your spirit is crushed, you are not alone. God is near to you right now, and He is ready to lift you up. Trust God who is near, and return to Him for He is ready to lift you up.
Jesus Himself said, “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavily burdened [by religious rituals that provide no peace], and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28). He offers you peace—not as the world gives, but as only He can give (John 14:27).
Have you wandered away? Have you let the cares of this life pull you from God? He says, “Even if your sins are as scarlet, they will be as white as snow” (Isaiah 1:18). “I will forgive their wickedness, and I will no longer remember their sin” (Jeremiah 31:34). Trust God and return to Him, for His mercy endures.
He loves you so much that He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die for you. “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life” (John 3:16). There is no greater love!
Today, God is calling you to trust Him. To let go of fear. To turn from sin. To run back to Him. He says, “You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart” (Jeremiah 29:13). Trust God, return to Him. Will you come?
Pray This:
“Lord, I have wandered far, but today I hear Your voice. You are my refuge, my strength, my Savior. Forgive me, cleanse me, and restore me. I place my trust in You, Lord Jesus, and I surrender my life to You. Lead me, guide me, and teach me to walk in Your ways. Thank You for Your love and Your grace. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”
And remember, my friends: “If God is for us, who can be [successful] against us?” (Romans 8:31). God loves you. Trust Him, return to Him. He will never fail you!
