Podcasts about Repentance

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Check out our mission to teach every verse of the Bible on video in what we call Project23. Our text today is Judges 10:15-16. And the people of Israel said to the Lord, "We have sinned; do to us whatever seems good to you. Only please deliver us this day." So they put away the foreign gods from among them and served the Lord, and he became impatient over the misery of Israel. — Judges 10:15-16 Here we are again—but something finally shifts. After God tells Israel to cry out to their false gods, they realize lip service won't cut it. This time, they don't just say the right words; they take the right action. They toss the idols and turn back to God. And then comes one of the most moving lines in Judges: "He became impatient over the misery of Israel." God, who had every right to walk away, couldn't stand watching his people suffer once he saw their genuine repentance. Real repentance is about getting serious with God. Israel had said "sorry" countless times before, but this time, they proved it. They didn't just confess—they cleaned house. And God responded with compassion that overflowed from his heart. But let's be clear: repentance is not a magic formula to get what we want from God. Israel didn't suddenly earn his favor. Instead, repentance aligned them with his justice. When they cast off idols, God saw both their hearts and the injustice of their suffering, and his mercy was stirred. That's what it means when Scripture says God became "impatient over their misery." God is not cold or distant. He doesn't shrug at our pain. When his people genuinely turn from sin, his compassion is moved both by their response to his justice and by the oppression weighing them down. That's the same call for us today. We can cry tears, pray prayers, and make promises—but if the idols stay, repentance isn't real. For Israel, it meant dragging false gods out of their homes and tossing them away. For us, it may mean finally deleting the app that keeps pulling us back into sin. Or ending the relationship that's poisoning our soul. Or reshaping how we spend our time, money, and energy so God isn't pushed out of first place. Repentance isn't about words, it's not a mere confession—it's a turn, it's about action. It leaves an imprint on your behavior. It changes what you do tomorrow. And when we finally get serious about our sin, we discover God's heart: He is both just and compassionate, eager to bring relief when his people turn back to him. Turn back today. Let your repentance be made known. ASK THIS: Am I truly serious about my sin, or just serious about avoiding its consequences? What "idol" do I keep confessing but never removing? Do I believe God is stirred with compassion over both my repentance and my misery? How might I align my life more with His justice this week? DO THIS: Don't just confess your sin today—cut it off. Take one tangible step that proves you're serious. PRAY THIS: Lord, I don't want to play games with my sin. Help me to align with Your justice, to lay down my idols, and to trust Your heart of compassion that cannot ignore my misery. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Run to the Father."

When God's Forbearance Ends | Understanding Divine Patience and Justice | 10 31 2025

When Jesus convicts you, the right response isn't excuses, delay, or self-defense—it's repentance. Turn around, tell the truth, and hand Him the keys you've been clutching. Repentance isn't humiliation; it's the doorway to freedom, clarity, and a restored relationship with your creator. And in today's message, Pastor Bill will invite you to choose the courage to change course, trusting God's mercy to cleanse, His wisdom to redirect, and His joy to meet you on the other side.

An episode from Bible Believers Baptist Church (BBBC), a conservative, independent body of King James Bible believers located in Corpus Christi, Texas. Bible Believers Baptist Church's statement of Faith:A Bible Baptist is one who believes in a supernatural Bible, which tells of a supernatural Christ, Who had a supernatural birth, Who spoke supernatural words, Who performed supernatural miracles, Who lived a supernatural life, Who died a supernatural death, Who rose in supernatural splendor, and Who will one day return in supernatural glory to establish a supernatural kingdom on earth. What BBBC believes about Creation: “We believe in the Genesis account of creation, and that it is to be accepted literally, and not allegorically or figuratively; that man was created directly in God's own image and after His own likeness; that man's creation was not a matter of evolution or evolutionary change of species or development through interminable periods of time from lower to higher forms; and that all animal and vegetable life was made directly and God's established law was that they should bring forth only “after their kind.”What BBBC believes about Salvation: “We believe in God's electing grace; that the blessings of salvation are made free to all by the gospel; that it is the immediate duty of all to accept them by a cordial, penitent and an obedient faith; and nothing prevents the salvation of the greatest sinner on earth but his own inherent depravity and voluntary rejection of the gospel; which rejection involves him in an aggravated condemnation.  We believe in salvation by grace through faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ on Calvary plus nothing.  Therefore, we do not believe that works are necessary for salvation, although once a person is saved, he should be careful to maintain good works.”What BBBC believes about Repentance and Faith: “We believe that Repentance and Faith are solemn obligations, and also inseparable graces, wrought in our souls by the quickening Spirit of God, thereby; being deeply convicted of our guilt, danger, helplessness, and of the way of salvation by Christ, we turn to God with unfeigned contrition, confession, and supplication for mercy; at the same time heartily receiving the Lord Jesus Christ and openly confessing Him as our only and all-sufficient Savior.” A message from BBBC to you: “If you are looking for a church in the Corpus Christi Texas area that preaches the Truth from God's Word, reach out to us at any time.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Check out our mission to teach every verse of the Bible on video in what we call Project23. Our text today is Judges 10:10-14. And the people of Israel cried out to the Lord, saying, "We have sinned against you, because we have forsaken our God and have served the Baals." And the Lord said to the people of Israel, "Did I not save you from the Egyptians and from the Amorites, from the Ammonites and from the Philistines? The Sidonians also, and the Amalekites and the Maonites oppressed you, and you cried out to me, and I saved you out of their hand. Yet you have forsaken me and served other gods; therefore I will save you no more. Go and cry out to the gods whom you have chosen; let them save you in the time of your distress." — Judges 10:10-14 Israel finally cried out to God after years of misery. But this time God pushed back. He basically said, "I've rescued you before, and you ran right back to idols. Why should this time be any different?" That's the moment when regret had to become repentance. It wasn't enough to admit failure. Israel had to do more than cry out—they had to truly turn from idols. This is the difference between worldly regret and godly repentance. Regret says, "I don't like the consequences." Repentance says, "I hate the reason that got me here — my disobedience." We've all been there. We regret getting caught in a lie—but do we hate lying? We regret the hangover—but do we hate drunkenness? We regret the fallout of anger—but do we hate the pride that sparked it? God isn't after our half-hearted apologies. He wants surrendered hearts. He'll even let us sit in our misery until we get serious enough to put away our idols. Maybe you are caught in the spin cycle right now—sin, sorrow, repeat. Maybe you've even prayed prayers that felt empty. The way out is always the same: not just regret, but repentance. Not just "sorry," but surrender. That means getting brutally honest with God—not just naming what you did, but admitting why you wanted it. Then, ask him to change your desires, to help you hate the sin itself, and to love him more. That's where real freedom begins. ASK THIS: Do I confuse regret with repentance in my life? What idols have I said "sorry" for but never actually removed? How might God be using misery to push me toward surrender? Am I willing to put away the counterfeit gods and trust Him fully? DO THIS: Don't just confess—clean house. Remove one "idol" today that competes with God's place in your heart. Then get honest with God about why you chased it, and ask Him to reshape your desires. PRAY THIS: Lord, I don't just want to regret my sin—I want to repent of it. Expose the motives behind it, and give me a heart that hates sin and loves You more. Amen. PLAY THIS: "We Repent."

In part one of the Go and Sin No More series, we focus on Jesus' encounter with the man at the pool of Bethesda. After thirty-eight years of suffering, this man's life changes forever when Jesus tells him to rise, take up his bed, and walk. But the miracle doesn't stop there — Jesus later commands him to “sin no more.” This episode explores what it means to be made whole not just physically, but spiritually, and how true healing calls us to walk in righteousness.

Call to Faith and Repentance Personal Testimony Inability to preach without God's presence. Acknowledges reliance on God since being called to preach. Admits personal failings but emphasizes God's faithfulness. Invitation to approach the altar for prayer and repentance. Encouragement to seek humility and communicate with God. Reassurance of God's willingness to listen to His children. Accessibility of prayer beyond the church setting. Personal experience of conversing with God while driving. Urgency to address spiritual needs immediately rather than delaying. Scriptural Reflection (Job 14) Acknowledgement of life's brevity and challenges. Reference to the fleeting nature of life, comparing it to a flower. Prayer for divine guidance and blessing. Request for the Holy Spirit's presence and direction in words and actions. The Universality of Trouble Life before salvation as a troubled time. Personal experience of being "doomed for a devil's hell" before salvation. Troubles persist even after salvation. Troubles are incomparable to the trouble of not knowing Jesus Christ. Salvation through Jesus Christ as the ultimate solution to life's troubles. The Cleansing Power of Jesus Christ The Unique Ability of Jesus to Cleanse Only Jesus can make a man's vessel fair. Salvation comes from Jesus Christ, not from any man. Rejection of the idea that signing a card can guarantee salvation. Emphasis on the necessity of the Holy Spirit's conviction and repentance. Importance of touching Jesus' blood for salvation. Personal Testimony of Salvation Personal experience of being saved at the altar. The preacher could not cleanse the heart, only Jesus could. God's love demonstrated through the sacrifice of Jesus. Jesus experienced human suffering to save humanity. God knows what individuals are going through and wants to help. Caution and Discernment in Seeking Spiritual Guidance The Importance of Sound Doctrine Doctors and scientists can cure diseases, but only Jesus can save from hell. Caution against false teachers and preachers. Some preachers distort the gospel and remove the blood of Jesus from their teachings. Need to ensure preachers are teaching the true gospel. The need to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. The gospel should be preached in truth and spirit. The Corrupting Influence of Sin and the Cleansing Power of Christ The Inevitability of Sin As people live longer, they become more corrupt. The heart becomes filled with sin. Only Jesus can cleanse a dirty heart. Jesus' willingness to be crucified demonstrates His love. His sacrifice allows people to be eternally with Him in heaven. The Importance of Repentance and Forgiveness Elder Roger still sins, but has a place to return to for forgiveness. The Holy Spirit convicts the heart when one sins. One can ask for forgiveness and receive it immediately. God is still in control, no matter how bad things get. Those saved by Jesus Christ have a better place waiting for them. The Promise of Heaven and the Importance of Salvation The Hope of Heaven Looking forward to going home to heaven. Anticipation of seeing castles, streets of gold, and a mansion. God built a mansion in heaven for Elder Roger. Jesus laid down His life and bled for humanity. He was beaten so that people could have a mansion in heaven. The Call to Salvation God knows each person's heart and what troubles them. There is no shame in talking to God. It is more shameful not to talk to God. One should not carry burdens alone. One can come to God's house and praise Him. Give Him honor for what He has done. If one needs His honors,

Take Off the Masks: Choosing God's Reality Over Babylon's Illusions | KIB 503 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description There's a war on for your identity. In this Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake expose the spiritual "masks" the enemy uses—from sanitized cultural traditions to personal coping personas—and invite the Remnant to step into truth, transparency, and freedom in Christ. From Halloween's ancient roots to the modern pressure to "perform," we trace how unreality keeps believers stuck—and how the Holy Spirit heals, restores, and re-aligns us with God's design. We also pray for the grieving, cover the Remnant during this season, and offer practical next steps: renouncing occult doors, affirming our children's identity in Jesus, seeking wise counsel when needed, and learning to live mask-free before God and one another. "Therefore, having put away falsehood, let each one of you speak the truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another." — Ephesians 4:25 (ESV) Highlights Why the Word of God is a war book—and why unreality is a weapon of the enemy Ancient and modern uses of masks (ritual, identity-shifting, and social control) The danger of "sanitized" paganism and why God says "Come out of her, my people" Parenting through cultural pressure—affirming identity in Christ Personal testimonies: fear of rejection, humor as a mask, and God's gentle dismantling Practical deliverance: renouncing doors, pleading the blood of Jesus, and wise counseling Helmet of salvation vs. masks of unreality—how to walk in truth

Do you ever feel like nothing in your life will ever be good enough? In today’s honest and insightful episode, Heather Creekmore opens up about her struggles with CDD or “Chronic Disappointment Disorder”—a feeling that no achievement or special day is ever truly satisfying. She explores the root of this persistent discontent and uncovers how fear, envy, and comparison play into our longing for "enough."

Can the unfaithful truly recover from sexual betrayal? In this powerful mini episode, Lisa dives into one of the most misunderstood questions in the healing journey after infidelity. So often, the spotlight shines on the betrayed spouse—and rightfully so. But the truth is, the unfaithful spouse also carries deep emotional, spiritual, and psychological wounds that must be addressed if true transformation is ever going to happen.

Drawing from the biblical story of King Josiah, Raley emphasizes the importance of consecration, repentance, and remembering God's word over our lives.

Send us a textAfter the victory at Jericho, Israel expects an easy win at Ai—but the soldiers run away and Joshua falls before God, devastated. God reveals the reason: someone has disobeyed by taking things from Jericho that were meant to be destroyed. By God's choice, the tribes and families come forward until Achan is named. He confesses that he hid silver, gold, and clothes under his tent. Israel removes the sin from the camp, and then—following God's new plan—they return to Ai and win. This sobering story shows that hidden choices can hurt many people, and that God calls His people to honest hearts and obedient lives. Talk about it:Why did Israel lose the first battle at Ai?What did Achan take, and why was hiding it such a big problem?How did God help Joshua after the people obeyed?What is one honest choice you can make this week, even if it's hard?Visit our website: kathyskidsstorytime.orgWe'd love to hear from you.To reach us quickly, click the “Send us a text” link at the top of the episode description.Or write to us by mail:Kathy's Kids StorytimePO Box 44270Charlotte, NC 28215-0043

God's Patience and Our Urgent Call to Repentance: Scripture Reflection for Oct. 25, 2025 by Priests for Life

Have you ever planted something that didn't yield any produce? Maybe an apple tree, or a raspberry bush. If it never gave you any fruit, you probably tore it out and put something new in its place. Jesus speaks of us in the same way. If we don't produce the fruit of repentance, we too will be cut down. Repentance is a matter of life and death. Dr. Philip Ryken asks the question, "Which will you choose,?" today on Every Last Word. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/581/29

Abortion "reform" sounds civilized—until you run the thought experiment. If a mother hires an assassin to kill her 9-month-old outside the womb, would we certify the killer, add counseling, or simply cut a check? In this episode we expose the logic of incrementalism, call pastors to preach the whole counsel of God, and press for real justice under Romans 13. Defund the blood money. Prosecute the crime. Repentance, not half-measures, is how nations heal.

Therefore you have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things. 2 We know that the judgment of God rightly falls on those who practice such things. 3 Do you suppose, O man—you who judge those who practice such things and yet do them yourself—that you will escape the judgment of God? 4 Or do you presume on the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience, not knowing that God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance? 5 But because of your hard and impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath when God's righteous judgment will be revealed.6 He will render to each one according to his works: 7 to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life; 8 but for those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, there will be wrath and fury. 9 There will be tribulation and distress for every human being who does evil, the Jew first and also the Greek, 10 but glory and honor and peace for everyone who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek. 11 For God shows no partiality.12 For all who have sinned without the law will also perish without the law, and all who have sinned under the law will be judged by the law. 13 For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law who will be justified. 14 For when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. 15 They show that the work of the law is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness, and their conflicting thoughts accuse or even excuse them 16 on that day when, according to my gospel, God judges the secrets of men by Christ Jesus.1.     What do you find yourself condemning other people for?

Tom Logue - October 26th 2025 In Jesus' family, loving discipline restores straying sheep and protects the flock. This week, Tom continues our King and His Kingdom series in Matthew 18:15–20, walking through Jesus' four-step process for church discipline within His church (ekklesia). He contrasts biblical friendship (top-shelf friends who love you enough to help you fight sin) with worldly friendship, warns how bitterness is poison, and explains what Jesus means by “binding and loosing” and “where two or three are gathered” in the context of restoring a brother or sister. The goal is never punishment—it's repentance, reconciliation, and restoration.

Date: Sunday, October 26, 2025 Title: The Sound of Repentance—The Sound of Reformation Scripture: Jonah 3:4-10 Sermon by: Mark Davis Sermon Series: Jonah: God's Love for Rebels

Friend of Sinners | Week 2 | The God Who Rejoices | Pastor Tyler Sollie | Life Center Tacoma When you think about God, do you imagine Him JOYFUL? What brings God joy? God rejoices in RESTORED RELATIONSHIP Luke 15:1-2, 8-10 (CSB) Restoration required INTENTIONALITY Restoration required INTENSITY The outcome of restoration: JOY! Zephaniah 3:14-17 (CSB) Restoration is found in REPENTANCE

Stop Doing Repentance Wrong

Luke 15 opens with two audiences: “tax collectors and sinners” drawing near to hear Jesus, and Pharisees/Scribes complaining that He receives and eats with them. Jesus answers with the parable of the lost sheep to show God's initiating grace: the Shepherd leaves the ninety-nine, seeks until He finds the one, places it on His shoulders, and calls for rejoicing. Heaven celebrates one sinner who repents. The main claim: salvation is the Shepherd's work from start to finish—He seeks, finds, carries, and keeps. Key Points 1. Context (vv.1–2): Two postures—those who listen vs. those who grumble. The gospel is demonstrated, not defended. 2. The Parable (vv.3–7): • Losing & Leaving: Strategic reallocation—leave the 99 to seek the 1. • Seeking “Until”: Persevering grace; God moves first (initiating grace). • Finding & Carrying: The Shepherd bears the full weight; assurance rests on His shoulders, not our performance. • Rejoicing: Heaven's culture is joy over repentance; the church should mirror it. 3. Theology of Salvation: Salvation belongs to the Lord; we don't add to Christ's finished work. Repentance is ongoing—turning from sin to God as a pattern, not a one-time checkbox. 4. Mission Application: Evangelism is normal kingdom work. Measure success by heaven's joy, not comfort or numbers. Practices for the Week • Name Your One: Identify a person, pray for them daily, and make one concrete touchpoint (coffee, meal, invitation). • Schedule “Leave the 99” Blocks: Carve out two weeks with intentional “seek” time (neighborhood prayer walks, workplace prayer, hospital/nursing-home visits, coffee-shop conversations). • Host a “Luke 15 Table”: Once a month, open your home for a simple meal and honest discussion through Luke 15; create a safe place for questions. • Follow-Up Culture: Pair celebration with discipleship—meet, read Scripture together, and support new believers. Scriptures Luke 15:1–7; Luke 19:10; John 10; Ezekiel 34; Isaiah 40:11; Psalm 23; Psalm 100:3; Zephaniah 3:17; Hebrews 13:20; 1 Peter 2:25; Romans 10:13.

Jesus exhorts his disciples to repent, and then he offers a parable that encourages us to become spiritually fruitful. (Lectionary #478) October 25, 2025 - Cathedral Rectory - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com
