Promise of Comfort
Today’s Audio Devotion:
Promise of Comfort
On March 30, 1863, when the United States was being torn by the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln called on Americans to “confess their sins and transgressions in humble sorrow, yet with assured hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon.” Lincoln assured the people that the “cry of the nation will be heard on high and answered with blessings.”
The President didn’t quote Matthew 5:4 in his proclamation, but his words were consistent with Jesus’ teaching in the Beatitudes that those who mourn will be comforted. Mourning over what? Jesus no doubt had Israel’s national sins in mind as well as those who mourn over their personal sins. And the comfort of which He spoke surely included forgiveness and restoration. The Old Testament promised forgiveness and comfort at both levels—nationally (2 Chronicles 7:14) and personally (Isaiah 1:18). And the apostle Paul wrote about the results of godly sorrow over sin (2 Corinthians 7:9-10).
If you are mourning today over sin at any level, take heart. God promises to comfort all who mourn with godly sorrow.
Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal.
Thomas V. Moore

Pray for Turning Point to find additional opportunities to reach Russian speakers around the world.
Pray for the furtherance of the Gospel, specifically that more people will come to Christ through Turning Point's Russian television and YouTube programs.
Impact Story
“I grew up with atheist parents. They hated anything to do with God. I was recently saved while watching Turning Point. Dr. Jeremiah opened my eyes to the truth. I understand now we have a purpose here on earth. I told my parents of my faith and they were furious. But by continually reading my Bible and being encouraged by the programs and my church, I was able to influence even my father by the changes he saw in me. I convinced him to watch Turning Point with me and after the first program, he was hooked. He kept watching each week and finally asked if he could go to church with me. He was saved that Sunday along with my mother! He then talked with his two brothers and they too received Jesus when they saw the joy in him. Thank you for turning our world around.”
