Leviticus 26:40 NLT
“But at last my people will confess their sins and the sins of their ancestors for betraying me and being hostile toward me.”
‭‭
But at last
God knows the end from the beginning; a truth powerfully echoed in today’s referenced scripture. In this passage, the Lord reveals that, at last, the people of Israel will come to a profound realization: they will not only acknowledge their sins but also recognize the mistakes of their ancestors. This collective acknowledgment highlights a significant turning point in their journey of repentance and spiritual growth. The Lord emphasizes that they will confess their deliberate acts of disloyalty and hostility towards Him, underscoring the importance of honest self-reflection and accountability.

Additionally, it is noteworthy that the Lord does not refer to them merely as the people of Israel but rather as “my people.” This designation is deeply significant, as it illustrates the profound relationship between God and His creation. It conveys that despite their failures, God remains steadfast and ready to embrace anyone who returns to Him with a contrite heart. “My people” signifies hope and belonging, reminding us that God’s love is boundless and that His arms are always open to those who seek forgiveness.

Finally, this scripture serves as a powerful call to action for each of us: we should not procrastinate in addressing our shortcomings. Instead, we must actively retrace our steps and seek to realign ourselves with God’s will. It is vital to cultivate an attitude of humility, recognizing that we are never too big to confess our sins and express our sincere remorse. Doing so opens the door to redemption and restoration in our relationship with God.

Prayer
Heavenly Father, I thank You for not casting away anyone who returns to You. Please help me not delay confessing my wrongdoing and returning to You. In Jesus’s name, I pray. Amen.
