Many of us love talking about how God give second chances. If I was to be honest, I am a witness to that as well. Yet we tend to stop there as if we are giving an impression of as long as we repent, He will continue to forgive and give chances. Just like there's a thin line in the natural where we become weary of someone doing us wrong over and over again, why would we think there isn't such a line with God?
The book of Lamentations is a short but serious book, as it shows how disobedience opens up the door to disaster in our lives. O Lord, thou hast seen my wrong: judge thou my cause-3:59. what does that tell you, that God yet judges for the wrong we do. But thou hast utterly rejected us; thou art very wroth (anger) against us-5:22. What does that tell you, God can reject us in his anger.
We all love focusing on God's love, but we don't like to mention God's anger. Yes, our God can be a angry God. We can play with sin so much til the point we can be like Samson and don't even know that the Lord departed from us...Judges 16:20. What causes that anger-sin. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God-Hebrews 10:31.
Saints I urge you don't cross that line with God because of the illusion of "all I have to do is repent" syndrome. Is it true repentance if you keep doing it over and over? Do not frustrate the grace of God! Our Messiah is coming back! Our hearts need to be ready for His return. If we are having an issue, He tells us to come boldly to His throne-Hebrews 4:16.
Think about it, what do we do to a person that keeps doing us wrong over and over again, we eventually cut them off. Continued sin will cut you off from God. Don't get cut off saints. Draw nigh unto Him while He maybe found!
