Return......I am married to you
Posted : 28 Jun, 2011 10:58 AM

�Thus says the LORD:



� I remember you,

The kindness of your youth,

The love of your betrothal,

When you went after Me in the wilderness,

In a land not sown.

Israel was holiness to the LORD,

The firstfruits of His increase.

All that devour him will offend;

Disaster will come upon them,� says the LORD.��

�

� What injustice have your fathers found in Me,

That they have gone far from Me,

Have followed idols,

And have become idolaters?

�

Has a nation changed its gods,

Which are not gods?

But My people have changed their Glory

For what does not profit.

�

� For My people have committed two evils:

They have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters,

And hewn themselves cisterns�broken cisterns that can hold no water.

�

� How shall I pardon you for this?

Your children have forsaken Me

And sworn by those that are not gods.

When I had fed them to the full,

Then they committed adultery

And assembled themselves by troops in the harlots� houses.

�

I have seen your adulteries

And your lustful neighings,

The lewdness of your harlotry,

Your abominations on the hills in the fields.

Woe to you, O Jerusalem!

Will you still not be made clean?�

�

Have you not brought this on yourself,

In that you have forsaken the LORD your God

When He led you in the way?

�

Your own wickedness will correct you,

And your backslidings will rebuke you.

Know therefore and see that it is an evil and bitter thing

That you have forsaken the LORD your God,

And the fear of Me is not in you,�

Says the Lord GOD of hosts.

�

Yet I had planted you a noble vine, a seed of highest quality.

How then have you turned before Me

Into the degenerate plant of an alien vine?

For though you wash yourself with lye, and use much soap,

Yet your iniquity is marked before Me,� says the Lord GOD.

�

Yet you say, �Because I am innocent,

Surely His anger shall turn from me.�

Behold, I will plead My case against you,

Because you say, �I have not sinned.�

Why do you gad about so much to change your way?

Also you shall be ashamed of Egypt as you were ashamed of Assyria.

�

You also committed harlotry with the Egyptians, your very fleshly neighbors, and increased your acts of harlotry to provoke Me to anger.

�

You are an adulterous wife,

who takes strangers instead of her husband.

Men make payment to all harlots,

but you made your payments to all your lovers,

and hired them to come to you from all around for your harlotry.

You are the opposite of other women in your harlotry,

because no one solicited you to be a harlot.

In that you gave payment but no payment was given you, therefore you are the opposite.�

�

Also My food which I gave you�the pastry of fine flour, oil, and honey which I fed you�you set it before them as sweet incense; and so it was,� says the Lord GOD.

�

�But you trusted in your own beauty, played the harlot because of your fame, and poured out your harlotry on everyone passing by who would have it.

�

There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses.

�

�They say, �If a man divorces his wife,

And she goes from him

And becomes another man�s,

May he return to her again?�

Would not that land be greatly polluted?

But you have played the harlot with many lovers;

Yet return to Me,�

says the LORD.

�

And I will establish My covenant with you.

Then you shall know that I am the LORD,

that you may remember and be ashamed,

and never open your mouth anymore because of your shame,

when I provide you an atonement for all you have done,� says the Lord GOD.��

�

Will you not from this time cry to Me,

� My Father, You are the guide of my youth?

�

� Return, backsliding Israel,� says the LORD;

� I will not cause My anger to fall on you.

For I am merciful,�

says the LORD;

� I will not remain angry forever.

Only acknowledge your iniquity,

That you have transgressed against the LORD your God,

And have scattered your charms

To alien deities under every green tree,

And you have not obeyed My voice,�

says the LORD.

�

Surely, as a wife treacherously departs from her husband,

So have you dealt treacherously with Me,

O house of Israel,� says the LORD.

�

�Return, O backsliding children,�

says the LORD;

�for I am married to you.

I will take you, one from a city and two from a family, and I will bring you to Zion.

And I will give you shepherds according to My heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding.

�

�When I passed by you again and looked upon you, indeed your time was the time of love; so I spread My wing over you and covered your nakedness. Yes, I swore an oath to you and entered into a covenant with you, and you became Mine,� says the Lord GOD.

�Then I washed you in water; yes, I thoroughly washed off your blood, and I anointed you with oil.

�

� Return,

you backsliding children,

And I will heal your backslidings.�

�

Jeremiah 3: 2-3, 5. Ezekiel 23:16, 23



Brothers, God said these words you all Christians.



RETURN backsliding children, wash your hands from the blood of your you sins. God is married you. You like His wife who is making Him great pain.

He is LONG-SUFFERING!

He SUFFERS LONG!

Why?

Because He NEEDS you!

There is no greater LOVE!

God made an ATONEMENT for your sins!

And I will establish My covenant with you.

Then you shall know that I am the LORD,

that you may remember and be ashamed,

and never open your mouth anymore because of your shame,

when I provide you an atonement for all you have done,�

says the Lord GOD.��



This Atonement is the DEATH of His Son on the cross instead of you. He took all your sins to make you FREE of them and CLEANSED of your sins and blood once and forever.

That�s why your name will be

HOLY SONS of God!



Are you holy? If not. Repent and turn your heart to God to get forgiveness of your sins through your FAITH in God Jesus.
