Restoration for your Own Mistakes

Perhaps you are thinking, “Yes I know I can expect restoration when the devil attacks me or if I am persecuted. But I am suffering now because of my own mistake. Surely I cannot expect God to restore me? I will have to suffer and pay for my mistake.”

Well, the Gospel of Jesus Christ is called the good news because it is really undeserved favor. Even if you are suffering losses from your own mistakes, you can still expect to receive restoration that is better in quality and/or quantity than before.

I know it sounds too good to be true, but I am not just making that up. Look at Abraham’s story. He told his wife Sarah to lie to everyone in Gerar that she was only his sister.

He did this because Sarah had been renewed in her youth and was exceedingly beautiful. Abraham was afraid that if the people knew that she was his wife, they would kill him and take her for themselves.

After hearing that Sarah was only Abraham’s sister, the king of Gerar, Abimelech, took Sarah into his harem.

Reading this story, it is clear that Abraham is the one at fault. He lied that Sarah was only his sister, and his lies stemmed from cowardice and self-preservation, endangering Sarah’s chastity.

Yet, when God wanted to save Sarah from being violated, He threatened Abimelech and his family with death if he decided not to restore Sarah to Abraham.

“God said to him in the dream, “Yes, I know that in the integrity of your heart you have done this, and I also withheld you from sinning against me. Therefore I didn’t allow you to touch her. Now therefore, restore the man’s wife. For he is a prophet, and he will pray for you, and you will live. If you don’t restore her, know for sure that you will die, you, and all who are yours.”” (Genesis‬ ‭20:6-7‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Shouldn’t it be Abraham who was threatened with death for his cowardice and lies? This is God’s Grace towards the righteous ones who are justified by faith. Even if you make a mistake, God is not punishing you for your sins—His heart is to restore you for the negative consequences of your wrong actions.

What does restore “the man’s wife” mean? Is it just to give Sarah back to Abraham? Let us examine what Abimelech did:

“Abimelech took sheep and cattle, male servants and female servants, and gave them to Abraham, and restored Sarah, his wife, to him. Abimelech said, “Behold, my land is before you. Dwell where it pleases you.” To Sarah he said, “Behold, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver. Behold, it is for you a covering of the eyes to all that are with you. In front of all you are vindicated.”” (Genesis‬ ‭20:14-16‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Wow, instead of just giving Sarah back to Abraham, Abimelech gave sheep, cattle, servants, land and a thousand pieces of silver to Abraham. Even though Abraham was the originator of the problem, he was enriched through his mistake.

This is what God’s restoration looks like. You never just get the same thing back. It will always be better in quality and/or quantity when He restores you for your losses.

Even though Abraham made mistakes in his life, he had a great relationship with God, such that the Scriptures call him “a friend of God”. Whenever God appeared and spoke to him, he paid attention, delighting in the words and meditated on them.

An example of this would be God’s promise to him that he would have a son who was born of Sarah. Abraham never gave up on that promise, and eventually, he received the fulfillment of it.

“Blessed is the man who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand on the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in Yahweh’s law. On his law he meditates day and night. He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water, that produces its fruit in its season, whose leaf also does not wither. Whatever he does shall prosper.” (Psalms‬ ‭1:1-3‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Although we are born-again and our spirits are righteous, holy and perfect like Jesus, we still live in this body of sinful flesh. Sometimes we get confused, thinking that the fleshly impulses and thoughts are our own. This causes us to make mistakes.

However, if you have a heart for God’s word like Abraham did, even the mistakes you unwittingly make will prosper. What you did may not be good, but God can still turn things around for your good because He is for you, not against you. Since you are righteous in Christ, you can expect to receive restoration for your losses, even if they were caused by your own mistakes!

Learn God’s plan to prosper you in all things through His restoration. If you have lost in any way, you can expect to gain much more/better back. This eBook, “All Things Made New”, may be the most comprehensive book about God’s restoration:

You Will Only See the Reward of the Wicked

“Abraham came near, and said, “Will you consume the righteous with the wicked? What if there are fifty righteous within the city? Will you consume and not spare the place for the fifty righteous who are in it? Be it far from you to do things like that, to kill the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous should be like the wicked. May that be far from you. Shouldn’t the Judge of all the earth do right?” Yahweh said, “If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare the whole place for their sake.”” (Genesis‬ ‭18:23-26‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Are Christians making Abraham seem more merciful and compassionate than God?

Know that if Abraham interceded all the way to 1 righteous person, God would have spared the cities from destruction.

Even if there is only 1 righteous person left on earth, the divine judgments during the Tribulation cannot begin.

Just as Lot had to be taken out of Sodom first, God will take us out of this world through the great “catching away”/harpazo/Rapture of the saints. When this world has no more righteous persons left, then the bowls, trumpets, and vials of God’s wrath will begin.

Abraham is called a “friend of God” and just as he watched the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah from afar, atop a high mountain, so too will we be in Heaven watch the Tribulation unfold on earth.

“You will only look with your eyes, and see the recompense of the wicked.” (Psalms‬ ‭91:8‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

You are not going though the Tribulation. Your body will be transformed and you will be caught up to meet Jesus and all the saints in the air, before we all go to Heaven together. This is the true ark which we will enter before the next worldwide judgment from God. Only when Noah was safely shut in the ark, did the rain begin to fall.

Be excited because the next big thing that can happen anytime for you is the salvation of your body when the Lord returns for His people. This is our blessed hope!

Escape All These Things

““So be careful, or your hearts will be loaded down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that day will come on you suddenly. For it will come like a snare on all those who dwell on the surface of all the earth. Therefore be watchful all the time, praying that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will happen, and to stand before the Son of Man.”” (Luke‬ ‭21:34-36‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

There will come a day where we will suddenly be transformed within the twinkling of an eye, and snatched up to meet Jesus in the air. It will happen all over the worldwide within a split second, and everyone left behind will have to deal with the ensuing chaos and confusion.

If that day catches you by surprise, it means that you were too focused on the cares of this life that you were actually surprised when the Rapture happened.

“NOOO! I have not completed ____ yet! I cannot leave now!” If anything fills that blank, it has probably replaced Jesus as the chief focus in your heart.

The Rapture will be like a snare to the unsuspecting unbelievers of the world, like when one steps on a pitfall trap and the whole structure simultaneously collapses under its weight.

However, to believers who are watching the end-times signs that point to the closeness of the Lord Jesus’ return, they will not be caught off guard. They will be like the watchful father in Jesus’ parable, who saw the son returning while he was still far off.

Notice how Jesus revealed that God’s will is for us to “escape all these things that will happen, and to stand before the Son of Man”?

Many Christians still don’t believe in a pre-Tribulation Rapture. They think that they will be going through the Tribulation. But we know that we will ESCAPE all these things. There will be a great escape to bring the saints safely to Heaven first, before the worst befalls the unbelieving world.

“Abraham came near, and said, “Will you consume the righteous with the wicked? What if there are fifty righteous within the city? Will you consume and not spare the place for the fifty righteous who are in it? Be it far from you to do things like that, to kill the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous should be like the wicked. May that be far from you. Shouldn’t the Judge of all the earth do right?” Yahweh said, “If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare the whole place for their sake.”” (Genesis‬ ‭18:23-26‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Abraham knew that God as a righteous Judge would not punish the righteous with the wicked. If there are any righteous ones in the world, the Tribulation and the following bowls, trumpets, and vials of God’s wrath would not begin. This is why there must be a pre-Tribulation Rapture, to remove the righteous ones before judgment begins.

God waited until Noah and his family entered the ark before sending the flood. He waited until Lot left the city before raining fire onto Sodom and Gomorrah. Finally, He made a distinction between the children of Israel and the children of Egypt during the plagues. Seeing these, we know that God will bring the saints to Heaven first before the Tribulation begins.

It could happen any time now. We see that the infrastructure of the Antichrist’s regime is almost in place. Look up, for your redemption draws near!

The four gospels are full of beautiful truths about God’s Grace and love towards us. By beholding Jesus Christ, we can know our Abba God. There are many misconceptions because of legalistic interpretations of the four gospels, and it has caused believers to be fearful, condemned, and they cannot enjoy the joy of their salvation.
