King James Version
What does Matthew 3:2 mean? โPassage Context
Devotional Reflection
In a world where people are afraid to speak the truth about sin, wickedness, and evil, these words may sound strange. Still, everyone who is lost desperately needs to repent, which means to change their heart and life, seek God, and live for Jesus as Lord. Yes, God's incredible grace gives us salvation. On the other hand, grace is not grace if it doesn't change us. Grace not only frees us from the empty and destructive life we would have lived without God and His guidance if Jesus hadn't died on the cross for us, but it also forgives us for what we have done.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, please forgive me for my sins. I want to turn my heart toward You and live my life for Your glory and according to Your will. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
