📖 "Some of the redeemed were fools because of their sinful ways. They suffered because of their wickedness. They had absolutely no appetite for food; they had arrived at death’s gates. So they cried out to the Lord in their distress, and God saved them from their desperate circumstances. God gave the order and healed them; he rescued them from their pit." -Psalm 107:17-20 Common English Bible
The Bible tells us that the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23). The people had suffered because of their transgressions. They found themselves on the road of destruction because of the lifestyle that they were living. The good news is that they came to themselves. Thank God that we can always come to ourselves. They cried out to the Lord in their distress, and God rescued them. He did not tell them that they needed to suffer a little while longer because of the severity of their sins. He came to them as soon as they cried out to Him. He healed, saved, and restored them. He has not changed. It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been going down the wrong path; you can always turn around and get on the right track. You can always cry out to the Lord with a sincere heart, and He will rescue you. He will redeem your life from destruction. He will rescue you from the pit.
