Powerful Repentance

From that time Jesus began to preach, and say, “Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
Matthew 4:17

Repentance is a powerful word with a positive result. Jesus commanded repentance because He was proclaiming the kingdom. The message of Jesus to every life is this: “You are living in darkness, come to My light; you are dead in your sins, come to Me and live; you are drinking out of muddy pools, come to Me and drink living water; you are indulging in things that do not satisfy, come to me and be made whole; you are living off crumbs, come to Me and eat the bread of life; you are existing on the least, come to Me and delight in the very best; you get things and gather things and yet remain empty, come to Me and be made full.” (Roy Lessin: His Footsteps, My Pathway)
