"Has sin pulled you down? Has the hand of the Lord gone out against you, so that you are broken in spirit? The first thing to do is return to the Lord.
See what a promise invites you! You shall be "built up." None but the Almighty can restore the tottering walls of your condition; but He can and He will do it if you return to Him. Do not delay. Hearty confession will ease you and humble faith will console you. Do this, and all will be well."
Return from Backsliding
If you return to the Almighty, you will be built up.
~ Job 22:23
"Has sin pulled you down? Has the hand of the Lord gone out against you, so that you are broken in spirit? The first thing to do is return to the Lord. With deep repentance and sincere faith, find your way back to Him. It is your duty, for you have turned away from Him whom you professed to serve. It is your wisdom, for you cannot strive against Him and prosper. It is your immediate necessity, for what He has done is nothing compared to what He may do in the way of chastisement.
See what a promise invites you! You shall be "built up." None but the Almighty can restore the tottering walls of your condition; but He can and He will do it if you return to Him. Do not delay. Hearty confession will ease you and humble faith will console you. Do this, and all will be well."(By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
