The message of repentance in Matthew is a timely reminder that we must choose God’s kingdom over the kingdoms of this world. Repentance is not just about turning from sin, but about redirecting our hearts toward Jesus as our true King, above all other allegiances.

My challenge to you is this: Pay attention to those promptings from the Holy Spirit. You never know how God might use your obedience to impact someone else’s life or even an entire city.
