"Bring no more futile sacrifices; incense is an abomination to Me.The New Moons, the Sabbaths, and the calling of assemblies—I cannot endure iniquity and the sacred meeting." Isaiah 1.13Offerings, sacrifices and religious zeal cannot make up for a person's sins and they are not pleasing to the Lord. The children of Israel know this very well. It was not a difficult task for them to fulfil religious obligations. The hard part was to stay away from sin.
Wouldn't it be the same as a husband full of lovers saying to his wife, "I've given you comfort, good houses, expensive cars, jewellery, money, and everything else you need..."? But she says, "I don't have the most important thing: you."
God speaks through His Word.The challenge is clear.God wants us to change;; to alter our habits and attitudes and to fall away from sin.God is a forgiving God.No matter how grave our sins are if we are willing to repent and be transformed,HE is always ready to lift us up from the deep pit and restore us.HE is always there waiting to come back to Him.HE will erase our past and renew us by offering our life to Him.Today God offers us a second chance in life.Let`s make the most of it.HIS gracious mercies is always His way of turning our life to Him.
