Re-Boot

I’m not computer-savvy enough to have ever done this, but I know in theory that if an update goes wrong, or for some other reason, it is possible to leapfrog backwards and reboot the computer to a time prior to the mistake happening.

I can’t help thinking how lovely it would be if that were a possibility in life. So that once we saw the confusion and mayhem a certain decision could cause, we could reboot, make different choices and opt for a better outcome.

By the grace of God, we can reboot our own lives by surrendering to him and giving our lives to Jesus, but the consequences of wrong decisions, of past sin, don’t usually disappear (… though he does work miracles sometimes). The difference is, though, that Jesus, through the Holy Spirit, walks with us through those consequences.

I pray that the two nations close to my heart will give themselves to the Lordship of Christ so that he can walk us through the consequences of our past decisions. Re-boot us, Lord. Send revival, Lord. Now would be a great time…
