Luke 15:4 What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one which is lost until he finds it?
The sheep belonged to the Man. It was saved; rescued, healed and preserved. Then it wandered away and was out there in the world. And the Man went after it until He found it, laid it on His shoulders, and brought it back home.
Verse 6 And when He comes home, He calls together His friends and neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with Me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!’
Verse 10 “Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents”.
Do not let the enemy of your soul, the accuser of the brethren, tell you it’s too late. You’ve gone too far. You have committed the unpardonable sin. Those are lies from the father of lies. You could not repent if you’ve committed the unpardonable sin. Repent means turn it around. The Blood of Jesus is for forgiveness and cleansing.
Verse 7 “I say to you that likewise there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance”. Believe this. It is written in the Word of God. Overcome those filthy accusations by the Blood of the Lamb and the Word of your testimony. Jesus overcame the devil by saying, “It is written”. He quoted the Word. The Blood had not yet been shed. We also have the Blood of Jesus as our weapon against those sinister lies.
Come home now. Pray: “Lord, I’ve wandered away from You. This is not the life I want. In the Name of Jesus, I ask for Your forgiveness. Wash me in the Blood of Jesus. I surrender my life to You. It’s Yours. Do what You want with me”.
He will kill the fatted calf for you, put the best robe on you, a ring on your finger and sandals on your feet.
Why do I beleaguer this message? Because deception is one of the enemy’s greatest weapons. Because in the last days, there will be a great falling away. Because religious teaching has made us fearful of our Father. Because religious teaching has exchanged the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ for the law of condemnation. Because someone reading this has been trapped in religious bondage, as I was, and the Father says, “It’s time to come home”.

Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, “Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down.
John 8:44
You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.
But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.
And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.

Luke 15: 11-22
Then He said: “A certain man had two sons. 12 And the younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me.’ So he divided to them his livelihood. 13 And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together, journeyed to a far country, and there wasted his possessions with prodigal living. 14 But when he had spent all, there arose a severe famine in that land, and he began to be in want. 15 Then he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine. 16 And he would gladly have filled his stomach with the pods that the swine ate, and no one gave him anything.
17 “But when he came to himself, he said, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! 18 I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you, 19 and I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants.” ’
20 “And he arose and came to his father. But when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. 21 And the son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight, and am no longer worthy to be called your son.’
22 “But the father said to his servants, ‘Bring out the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet. 23 And bring the fatted calf here and kill it, and let us eat and be merry; 24 for this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ And they began to be merry.
