When we admit that we are sinners, believe in Jesus Christ and confess this truth with our mouths, GOD sends HIS Holy Spirit to live in us. And we become children of GOD, co heirs with Jesus Christ. Washed pure of our sins.
However, this also comes with the conviction of the Holy Spirit. This conviction changes our hearts and our minds to want to be more like Jesus.
This has a profound effect on the way that we think. No longer are we of this world. For we know that we are not going to spend eternity on earth. The treasures we have stored up here are fleeting and subject to thieves and moths and greed and corruption.
The treasures that we store up in Heaven are our eternity.
And this prompts us to walk in a manner that is pleasing to GOD. Our characters must change if we are in Christ. No longer can we use bad language. No longer can we be worldly and want the things of this world. No longer can we tolerate hatred and no longer are we frightened of the things of this world, because we know that Jesus is with us.
Repentance looks like something. If it doesn't or hasn't changed you. Repent again. Ask GOD to fill you with HIS Holy Spirit. Believe in Jesus!
Prayer: ABBA FATHER thank YOU for YOUR grace in sending Jesus Christ to save me. Thank YOU for my repentant heart. I thank YOU in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
Stay truly GOD blessed today!
