Joel 2: 18-32, Joel 3, Hebrews 4: 1-13, Proverbs 11: 19-28
Joel 2: 25 (ESV)
“I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust
has eaten, the hopper, the destroyer, and the cutter, my great army, which I
sent among you.”
I love verse 25 from Joel 2. Joel tells us that God promises
restoration after he has punished us. God will restore everything to us that
was taken from us even though it might seem we have lost everything. God’s
promises tell us that he is not an unkind an unjust God. God will punish us
when we fall away from him, but when we repent, he will welcome us back and he
will restore everything that we lost. I think God’s restoration also applies
when we lose everything due to other circumstances. God is a kind and good
father. He will never hold back his love from us. He will take care of us and
restore to us everything that life has taken from us.
