Healing thru Sanctification

WHAT IF GOD DIDN’T WANT YOU?
There are many reasons why God would not want you–but don’t worry.
You’re in good company.
Moses stuttered.
David’s armor didn’t fit.
Hosea’s wife was a prostitute.
Amos’ only training was in the school of fig-tree pruning.
Jacob was a liar.
David had an affair.
Solomon was too rich.
Abraham was too old.
David was too young.
Timothy had ulcers.
Peter was afraid of death.
Lazarus was dead.
Naomi was a widow.
Paul was a murderer. So was Moses.
Jonah ran from God.
Miriam was a gossip.
Gideon and Thomas both doubted.
Jeremiah was depressed and suicidal.
Elijah was burned out.
John the Baptist was a loudmouth.
Martha was a worrywart.
Samson had long hair.
Noah got drunk.
Did I mention that Moses had a short fuse?
So did Peter, Paul–well, lots of folks did.  GOD doesn’t look at financial gain or loss. He’s not prejudiced nor partial, not judging,
grudging, sassy, nor brassy, not deaf to our cry, not blind to our need. See God’s gifts are free. He loves us just the way we are. It’s His desire for us to become sanctified and have the same thoughts and ways has His Son.

Rom 12:2  And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

 That’s only possible by the new birth that His Son accomplished for us with His death and resurrection.

Eph 4:24  And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

 Sure, we’re going to sin and still have problems.

1Jo 1:8-9  If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.  (9)  If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
