“Times Of Refreshing
May Come From The
Lord”
“Now,
fellow Israelites, I know that you acted in ignorance, as did your leaders. But
this is how God fulfilled what he had foretold through all the prophets, saying
that his Messiah would suffer. Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins
may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord, and that he
may send the Messiah, who has been appointed for you—even Jesus. Heaven must
receive him until the time comes for God to restore everything, as he promised
long ago through his holy prophets. For Moses said, ‘The Lord your God will
raise up for you a prophet like me from among your own people; you must listen
to everything he tells you. Anyone who does not listen to him will be
completely cut off from their people.’
“Indeed,
beginning with Samuel, all the prophets who have spoken have foretold these
days. And you are heirs of the prophets and of the covenant God made with your
fathers. He said to Abraham, ‘Through your offspring all peoples on earth will
be blessed.’ When God raised up his servant, he sent
him first to you to bless you by turning each of you from your wicked ways.”
Acts 3:17-26
Times
of refreshment can come at any moment. Enjoy them and savor them and get closer
to God because of them. Say “Thank You” to our Savior for those peaceful times.
Quiet
your heart. Make time for devotions and Bible reading. When we spend time with
the Lord, we can experience His peace and joy which renew us in spirit. Be
thankful for these daily times of spiritual refreshment.
When we draw near to God, our minds are refreshed and our
strength is renewed.
