HE LOVES YOU BEYOND YOUR FLAWS

'Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.' - Isaiah 1 vs 18

Looking at our opening Bible passage, we see amazing Grace! Those were the very words of God; He said, even if your sins be as red as crimson, come reason with Him! Waoww! Dearly beloved, irrespective of how dark your sins are, God doesn't mind having you around. Glory to God. But you see, men run away from God because of their sins: naturally, sin inputs in a man a lack of confidence to approach God; we saw that manifest in Adam in the Garden;

'And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou?
And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.' - Genesis 3 vs 9 - 10 {KING JAMES VERSION}

• I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself

They ran from the presence of God because they were naked. But did you notice that God who in His foreknowledge knew that man would disobey Him, didn't refrain Himself from them? Though they sinned yet He came to them! That shows us one nature of God's personality, God doesn't find fault!

'If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.' - James 1 vs 5 {KJV}

• and upbraideth not

The word 'upbraideth not' as used in the above Bible verse means 'not fault finding'. God does not find fault! If many Believers knew this, they would rather have ran to God in their mess, they wouldn't have refrained their commitment to Him! - Selah

Dearly beloved, God wants you well! God wants you to be at rest! Though your sins be as red as scarlet and dark as crimson, yet God invites you to the throne of Grace; He wants to lavish upon you His mercy, He wants to pour upon you abundant Grace and help you. God is more willing to help you than you desire to be helped. He invites you today! If the one whom you offended doesn't mind loving you and helping you, then what's your problem? - Selah

'Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.' - Hebrews 4 vs 16 {KJV}

You see... again we are urged to come boldly before God! The statement "come boldly" already shows to us that there are tendencies for the comers to be scared and have unworthy feelings; but God says come boldly! He wants to help you! He wants to take away your guilt! He wants to take away your shame! He is supposed to be the offended, but how amazing that He yet loves in spite of our offences. What a Father! Glory to God forevermore. Amen.

So therefore dearly beloved, be encouraged today and lifted in your heart to approach God, draw yourself close to Him, you have seen that He is good, He doesn't find fault, and though He is the offended, yet He invites you to His presence where He wants to lavish upon you immeasurable Grace and mercy. Take advantage of the goodness of God. Be lifted! Amen. God loves you beyond your flaws.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
