Set up road signs; put up guideposts. Mark well the path by which you came. Come back again, my virgin Israel; return to your towns here.
Jeremiah 31:21
“In light of the great love and restoration of God, it made no sense for Israel to remain in their backslidden condition a moment longer.” - David Guzik
The same applies to us; with the promise of restoration through the forgiveness of our sin, it makes no sense to remain in our backslidden condition any longer.
We will backslide, however, there is alwaysÂ
Mark your path and set up guideposts of your experiences with the Lord so when you are ready to return you can find your way back to His arms full of love and heart full mercy.
I love having His instructions deep within and written on my heart! Oh, the joys of knowing His Word.
But this is the new covenant I will make with the people of Israel after those days,” says the LORD. “I will put my instructions deep within them, and I will write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
Jeremiah 31:33
“Things required by the law are bestowed by the gospel. God demands obedience under the law: God works obedience under the gospel. Holiness is asked of us by the law: holiness is wrought in us by the gospel.” - Charles Spurgeon
Mark your path, Wendy
