Turned Away


And when he humbled himself the wrath of the Lord turned from him, so as not to make a complete destruction. Moreover, conditions were good in Judah.
2 Chronicles 12:12

God turns away His wrath on sin
when humble repentance turns back to Him
He judges sin in holiness
but mercy comes with forgiveness
to sinners repenting in humility
God will turn away judgment in mercy

Sin makes of lives a complete destruction
for God’s judgment is often to let this happen
sin follows its ruinous course
and sinners eventually feel remorse
so real repentance means it is not too late
to turn to God so He will change their fate

God turned away wrath many times again
when Israel repented of disobeying Him
He forgave and restored yet with consequence
so they would remember and obey with diligence
blessed to be obeying His holy law
called to worship again in wonder and awe
