    Have You Ever Felt ‘Unsaved?’



    I have , and I see it as a test, a trial, because sometimes I still do feel as if I ‘must quickly ’ do something in order to alleviate or get rid of the feeling of ‘unsavedness’. Like when Jesus was tempted in the desert. The enemy is subtle and sometimes I don’t realise whats happening, so the Lord shed some Light on this today, I realised to just leave it be and recognise its not me or mine and that I cannot ‘do’ anything in order to shift the unsaved feeling. It’s just the devil and his little game.



    Today I realised what this scripture was saying.

    I desire mercy not sacrifice, go and learn what this means. Matthew 9;13 NKJV

    Praise The Lord!

    Jesus said, "I will have mercy and not sacrifice." Jesus did not come to destroy heart-felt sinners, but he came to show forth his mercy to those who feel their own sinfulness. They are his people, which he chose before the foundation of the world. They are the same people that he quickened into spiritual life when they were dead in trespasses and sin. Because of this quickening, they now feel themselves to be sinner. It is to these that Jesus has mercy... Just something I borrowed... I hope it helps... Brother Glen:)

    Amen!

    17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: A broken and contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. Ps 51

    3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Mt 5

    2 For all these things hath my hand made, and so all these things came to be, saith Jehovah: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and that trembleth at my word. Isa 66

    6 Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Mt 5

    15 For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite. Isa 57
