ISAIAH 57 : 19
“Peace to those far and near, says the LORD, and I will heal them.”
God promised His Shalom to those far from sin and near to Him. Judah repented and volunteered to be a prisoner of Joseph in Egypt to free Benjamin.
Joseph became second in command to the king, while Judah became the father of many kings, including the King of kings. The repentant are redeemed and find favour with God as His loved children.
The past may be filled with extreme darkness of sin, but the blood of the Saviour cleanses it all when we seek Him!
