Are we ever too far gone for God?

July 16, 2024

You’ve gone far enough. Turn back. That was God’s message to the people of Judah (hear more on today’s study), and that’s the message this Christian brother in Rwanda also heard in God’s Word. Here’s his story:

“I extend my warm greetings to you in the name of Jesus Christ. Your teaching has had a profound impact on my life, transforming me in ways I never thought possible. In the past, I struggled with alcohol addiction, leading me to spend countless nights sleeping on the streets in despair. I thought perhaps I was too far gone to receive God’s grace. However, in God’s Word I have found otherwise. He has given me the strength to repent and turn my life around. I am now free from the grip of alcohol and my health has greatly improved. Additionally, I am actively involved in serving the Lord through various church ministries. I am truly grateful for the teachings you provide, and I pray that God continues to bless you abundantly.”

Praise God we are never too far gone for His mercy. As we thank Him for His mercy in this man’s life, together let’s pray for all those in Rwanda who still need to hear about the saving grace of God.

Father, thank You for receiving us in Your mercy. We’ve all been far from You at one time or another—thank You for pursuing us in love. We pray for those who are still living in the muck of sin. We pray they hear Your Word taught on THRU the BIBLE and tangibly sense You drawing them to Your grace. Give them the courage and strength to surrender their will and step toward You in faith. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Keep on going. That’s what we hear from a listener in Tanzania. Join us tomorrow for her inspiring story.
