🎹🎻 *_GOOD AFTERNOON, BELOVED and ANOINTED, as you receive a key to your greatness right NOW, in Jesus’ Name!_* 🌹
🍇🍒👍
Let us sing this melodious hymn together before our Exhortation;
*_I Hear Thy Welcome Voice_* Methodist Hymn 351.
1: I HEAR Thy welcome voice
That calls me, Lord, to Thee,
For cleansing in Thy precious blood
That flowed on Calvary.
*_Refrain:_*
*_I am coming, Lord,_*
*_Coming now to Thee:_*
*_Wash me, cleanse me, by the blood_*
*_That flowed on Calvary._*
2: Though coming weak and vile,
Thou dost my strength assure;
Thou dost my vileness fully cleanse,
Till spotless all, and pure.
3: ’Tis Jesus calls me on
To perfect faith and love,
To perfect hope and peace and trust,
For earth and heaven above.
4: ’Tis Jesus Who confirms
The blessed work within,
By adding grace to welcomed grace,
Where reigned the power of sin.
5: All hail! atoning blood!
All hail! redeeming grace!
All hail! the gift of Christ our Lord,
Our Strength and Righteousness.
🦅 *_Exhortation:_*
Implicitly, God does not keep a record of sins. As he promises through 🦅 *OUR TEXT:* Jeremiah 31:34, concerning “the least to the greatest”:
💕 *_“And I will forgive their wickedness, and I will never again remember their sins” -*(Jer 31:34).
💕 *_“God is too righteous to keep Himself constantly unhappy over the contents of your sin that He has magnanimously forgiven… So, He deletes the records of wrong!_*
💕 *_“If we are His children, we must unlearn bitterness, eschew hatred, forget the wrongs of neighbours, and learn the steps of mercy!_*
💕 *_“That the Kingdom of God is the good reward of the True Christian is not a denominational wisdom… We are saved by God’s grace, by the shedding of His Son’s Blood!”_*
🦅 THEME:
*“The Transformative Power of God’s Forgiveness”*
The text, Jeremiah 31:34, promises a new covenant where God will forgive the people’s wickedness and remember their sins no more. This aligns beautifully with the hymn’s message of cleansing, forgiveness, and the transformative power of Jesus’ atoning blood.
Beloved, God speaks expressly to us – whichever group we belong to or whatever our focus echoes:
*On the worth of a Human Soul,*
Jeremiah 31:34 reminds us that every human soul has immense value in God’s eyes.
Despite our sins and shortcomings, God is willing to forgive and restore us, affirming the inherent worth of each person.
*On the Salvation of Humankind,*
The hymn’s focus on the *_“precious blood that flowed on Calvary”_* speaks to the reality of Christ’s sacrifice for the salvation of all people. Through faith in Him, we can receive the forgiveness and cleansing promised in Jeremiah 31:34.
*To the Anti-theist,*
For those who reject the existence of God, Jeremiah 31:34 and our chosen hymn serve as a powerful testimony to the reality of God’s love and forgiveness. The transformative power of this message can challenge the scepticism of the anti-theist.
*To our World Government:*
As governments strive to maintain order and justice, Jeremiah 31:34 reminds us that all humans can only find true and lasting peace in the forgiveness and restoration offered by God’s new covenant. Please do not lean on your understanding as you are not wiser than God. Proverbs 3:5-6 New King James Version (NKJV) *_“Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.”_*
This is a message of hope for a world needing divine intervention.
*For Business Success:*
Colossians 3:23: *_Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men._*
Proverbs 10:4: *_A slack hand causes poverty, but the hand of the diligent makes rich._*
Proverbs 12:24: *_The hand of the diligent will rule, while the slothful will be put to forced labour._*
In the toils of our hands, the message of forgiveness and transformation inspires ethical practices, fosters healthy relationships, and encourages forgiveness and reconciliation when conflicts arise.
Do your work daily as if you are doing it for God, not for wages!
*For your Finances:*
The hymn’s call to be *_“washed, cleansed, and made spotless”_* can be applied to the management of personal finances, encouraging stewardship, integrity, and the restoration of financial health. Let us work hard in the right endeavour and live with godly fear, and poverty will run away from us.
*Concerning Human Relationships:*
Jeremiah 31:34 and the hymn’s message of forgiveness and cleansing can empower individuals to extend grace and reconciliation in their relationships, leading to deeper connections and the healing of broken bonds.
What is the need to enjoy hymns, being liberal enough to read and hear, without heeding the call to salvation?
Please give your life to Jesus Christ today… Do not postpone your salvation, Beloved.
Only accept him as your LORD and Saviour (John 3:3-8). Confess your sins and ask Him to come into your life to direct your path… Find a Jesus-Christ-believing fellowship. And You Will See Wonders in your life!
*_May this inspirational message, rooted in the power of God’s forgiveness and the transformative hymn, bring hope, encouragement, and a renewed sense of purpose to all who hear it, in Jesus’ Name._* AMEN. 💕
