The Bible has a practical and simple process to receive mercy. While the burden of sin is enormous. Shame, guilt, and condemnation are the default for any person who has a burden of sin.
But when we choose to seek repentance, we receive mercy.
Proverbs 28:13 states this beautiful way to get rid of the heavy weight of sin and a sinful lifestyle. The verse is given below in 3 versions of the Bible. Read these verses twice prayerfully. Read with all of your heart, meaning it.
We should trust in God. We are neither to trust in man nor riches nor our selves.
Jeremiah 17:5-8 conveys this powerfully and effectively below.
5 This is what the Lord says:
“Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans,
who rely on human strength
and turn their hearts away from the Lord.
6 They are like stunted shrubs in the desert,
with no hope for the future.
They will live in the barren wilderness,
in an uninhabited salty land.
It’s important to have self-control. Control ones emotions and actions. This speaks about a verse person.
Proverbs 25:28 speak about this. The verses are given in 3 versions from the Bible.KJV He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls.
AMP He who is slow to anger is better and more honorable than the mighty [soldier], And he who rules and controls his own spirit, than he who captures a city.
ESV A man without self-control is like a city broken into and left without walls.
