The Call To Genuine Repentance
Devotional
God calls us to genuine repentance, a turning to Him with our whole hearts. This is not about outward displays of remorse but a deep, heartfelt change. Joel's message to Judah was clear: 'Turn to me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping and with mourning. So rend your heart and not your garment.' True repentance involves a sincere transformation of the heart. Consider the areas in your life where you need to experience genuine repentance. Are there sins or habits that you need to bring before God? Allow His Spirit to work in you, bringing about true change and restoration. 'Now therefore, says the Lord, turn to me with all your heart. With fasting, with weeping and with mourning. So rend your heart and not your garment.' - Joel 2:12-13
