THE GOD OF SECOND CHANCES

Scripture

“His mercies are new every morning.” — Lamentations 3:23

Message

Everyone makes mistakes. Everyone experiences failure at some point in life.

The good news is that our failures do not have the final word—God does.

Peter denied Jesus yet became a mighty leader. Jonah ran from God's assignment yet was restored. Mark once abandoned a mission journey yet later became a valuable servant of God.

God specializes in restoration.

Do not allow yesterday's failures to stop tomorrow's obedience.

God's mercy is greater than your mistakes.

Golden Nugget

Your failure is never greater than God's grace.

Prayer

Father, thank You for Your mercy and grace. Help me leave past failures behind and walk confidently in the future You have prepared for me.

In Jesus' name, Amen.
