Episode 360 - Show Notes:
- The Bible tells us what happens at our conversion. We were dead spiritually, but have been given new life. We were lost in our sins, but we have been found. We were the enemies of God, but now we have been made friends, and sons and daughters of God.
- What a powerful thought. Heaven rejoices over you! There is a celebration in Heaven over every person who repents of their sins and is saved by the grace of God. Heaven does not merely rejoice in general at the idea of sinners repenting, but specifically over the each individual who turn away from the way of death to the way of life.
- Shouldn’t you and I as believers celebrate the same thing that is celebrated in Heaven? Shouldn’t the church be a place of rejoicing over every person who was lost and is now found?
- What if we learned to pay attention to what God is doing? What if we begin to take note of testimonies, praise reports, and the evidence of God being at work in people’s lives? Imagine if we routinely celebrated along with Heaven! Imagine the joy we would begin to experience!
Luke 15:10 - “There is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”
Zephaniah 3:17 - “The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.”
