“God wants All People to Know Him” (Today’s Verse/Heartlight with Phil Ware)

“Scripture: “The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.” — 2 Peter 3:9

Insight: “Far from being a vindictive God looking for some reason to condemn us, God wants all people, of all races and languages, to come to know him, to turn to him in repentance, and follow his Son as Lord and Savior. That’s why Jesus came (John 3:16-27). That’s why Jesus’ return has not yet happened. So if our desire is to do the LORD’s will and please him in all we do, shouldn’t we be doing something to bring all the people of the world to a knowledge of simple truth about Jesus? This is the mission Jesus gave us (Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 1:8). Shouldn’t we do everything we can to help them know his grace and call them to repent and follow Jesus as Lord?” Read the rest of the devotion & share!
