[Manna - September 20]
Thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place,...to revive the spirit of the humble, and the heart of the contrite ones. Isaiah 57:15
LET us ever keep in memory that a broken and
contrite heart the Lord never despises, will never
spurn.
Therefore, into whatever difficulty any of the
Lord's people of the New Creation may stumble, if
they find themselves hungering for the Lord's fellowship
and forgiveness, if they find their hearts contrite
and broken, let them not despair, but remember
that God has made a provision through the merit of
Christ which enables Him to accept and justify freely from all sin all that come unto Him through Jesus—through faith in His blood....Those who have
broken and contrite hearts on account of their sins
may know that they have not committed "the sin
unto death," for their condition of heart proves this,
as the apostle declares: "It is impossible to renew
again unto repentance" any who have committed the
sin unto death. Z.'03-383 R3255:4
