33 “This is what the Sovereign lord says: When I cleanse you from your sins, I will repopulate your cities, and the ruins will be rebuilt.
Ezekiel 36:33
Brethren, from the scripture above, we see the consequences of sin, it's remedy and the benefits of a sin free life.
Sin causes desolation. In the above scripture we see that because of sin, the city became desolate and without people (or without a lot of them). Sin we ruin your life, career, marriage, business , etc whether you like it or not.
Sin dismantles. It will dismantle love, trust, care, happiness, etc. You can't be living a sinful life and expect a holistic life. Sin will automatically disfigure your life and render it destitute.
However, the good news is that we have a master repairer, master builder, master renovator: Our God through Jesus Christ! No matter how disfigured you have become as a result of the punches of sin, there is Jesus who is calling you to come to him as you are. He will cleanse your sin through his blood shed on the cross. He will rebuild you and your life will become meaningful yet again.
Repent and be in good terms with God. Sin must be cleansed and not clothed with sweet sounding names. Sin remains sin until it is confessed and forgiven.
May God bless us all.
Shalom
