Who could ever resist the drawing of God’s Holy Spirit and reject His offer of salvation? Apparently, many who have ears that do not want to hear. We who responded to our Savior’s calling on our lives cannot imagine saying no to so great a salvation.
God does not desire for any one to perish without Him. The minute we respond and say yes; our name is written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.
When we resist God; He doesn’t give up on us. He continues to woo us by His Holy Spirit. Now; if we continue to resist over and over, our heart can become insensitive to His nudging. Disregarding the voice of God is a sad state for any believer but especially for a non-believer.
I long to respond without hesitation in obedience as quickly as God asks me to do something. He’s such a good Father. I do not deserve His never ending mercy and grace. Although I haven’t seen Him face to face as yet; I just love Him more and more with each passing day and I never want to disappoint Him.
Our Bridegroom has gone to prepare a place for us, so how can anyone resist that invitation? Being betrothed to the Savior of the World, is the most exciting destination. Many of us have had a lot of years to get to know Him.
We are so blessed to have Someone who loves us so unconditionally and promises to do so now and for eternity. How else can we respond but to say yes.
Prayer in Motion:
Lord Jesus, I accepted Your invitation so long ago but I’ve never regretted this. I am so thankful I did not resist and responded with a yes on that Sunday morning. Thank You for first loving me and sealing me for my day of redemption. I love You Lord. In Jesus Name. Amen.
