My children, what does repentance mean to you? Is it just something that you do to clear your conscience, words that you just automatically say, it is something that you feel you are required to do, think that if you say it then you are clear, or are you really saying it with your heart? Are you really meaning what you say?
My children, I am preparing you and been preparing you for all that I am about to do. But if you do not understand what true, real repentance is then how are you going to tell others what repentance is and what it really means?
Oh My children, you really do not understand how important true, heartfelt repentance means and how important it is that you know it and live it. When you repent from your heart, you will do what ever it takes to not do it again. And if you slip and fall into it again, it causes you pain that you have done it again and you fight even harder to turn away from it. When you are truly repentive then you do not just say the words but you do them immediately. You come out of your repentance clean, pure, and holy because a heart that is repentive is a clean and pure heart.
Too many of you are taking for granted My love, My grace, My forgiveness, My mercy, and My long suffering. Too many of you have given Me lip service over and over and over again. I will not accept lip service. I will only accept repentance from your heart that will turn from your sinful ways. When you repent, truly repent from your heart; you will feel a washing go on from the inside out. You will feel a lightness because I will have taken off the burden of sin because My Son carried that burden on calvary for you.
Do you not understand yet what My Son did for you? Do you not understand he only did it because of My love for you and his love for Me? He sits beside Me interceding for you still over and over. But I do have the say when enough is enough. I want you to see I have given you the greatest thing I could give you and that was the token of My love which was My Son. I gave you that so that you can have life in Me fully and eternally. I did this just because I love you. But most of you still take it so lightly.
Yes I am a God that forgives. Yes I am a God of mercy, grace, hope, love, peace, long suffering, understanding, and goodness. But I am also a God that does not stand a liar. I am a God that does not put up with sin. I am also a God that expects My children to respect Me, honor Me, and obey Me. I am a God that expects My children to come to Me with their hearts and not take for granted the gifts that I have given them.
Oh My children, search your heart today. Are you really repenting or are you playing a game? Are you really ready to turn completely to Me and never look back or are you only doing what you think will keep you out of hell? It is time for true repentance.
It is time to get before Me and study true repentance and let your life be changed from this moment on. And as you learn true repentance, then you can pass your experience, your testimony to others and they too will understand what true repentance is.
This starts with you My children. Search, seek, and find Me. Search, seek, and find the truths and learn the very depths of Me. True repentance of the heart is what I require My children. True repentance and turning away from those sins that you repent of, to not return to them again.
True repentance of words that come from your mouth that came directly from your heart and allow the washing to begin. Time is too short to play games little ones. Get serious with Me today and find true repentance. Do not take for granted My Son’s blood that was shed for you. Do not take for granted the love that I have shown you. True repentance of the hearts little ones.
