“Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, behold, I am bringing upon this city and upon all its towns all the disaster that I have pronounced against it, because they have stiffened their neck, refusing to hear my words.”

--Jeremiah 19:15

How many chances do you get in life?

You and I were born in sin. We started out in a rebellious state. But the sad truth is that some people live in that place of resistance.

In our Scripture verse for today, God hardens the heart of some who continue to reject and refuse Him.

You see, God offers His love, grace and mercy over and over again. But there comes a time—if you continue to say no to Christ and to God’s love—that you cross God’s deadline and your heart hardens.

It is possible to reject the love of Jesus Christ so much that you pass the point of no return.

The Bible says, “My Spirit shall not abide in man forever” (Genesis 6:3). When Jesus looked out across the city of Jerusalem that was broken and ruined, he wept over the city. He said, “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it! How often would I have gathered your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you would not!” (Luke 13:34).

What a frightening thought! Don’t let that happen to you.

IF YOU HAVEN’T, ACCEPT GOD’S GRACE BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE!
