LONGSUFFERING
Numbers 14:18
‘The Lord is longsuffering and abundant in mercy and truth, taking away lawlessness, wrongdoings, and sins; but He would not cleanse the guilty by repaying the sins of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation.’
Encouraging Words
God is loving and merciful to us, His created children. Moses calls that out in his prayer to God to forgive the people of their sins and disrespect for God. God waits for long periods of time for us to turn back to Him. His abundance in mercy and truth takes away our lawlessness, wrongdoings, and sins. He holds us each accountable for our own sins and not the sins of those who have gone before us. He desires that we run to Him as a lost child who finally sees their father in the crowd. Glory be to God!
