DEAL WITH THE ROOT OF SIN.

God bless you for taking your time to study.

DEAL WITH THE ROOT OF SIN.
 
TUESDAY OCTOBER 18TH

TEXT: ROMANS 7:16-25.
KEY VERSE: Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
Sin has devastating consequences in the life of a believer. Apart from spiritual death, the opportunity of living eternally with the Lord Jesus Christ is lost due to a sinful lifestyle. The root of sin began in the Garden of Eden when Adam and Eve disobeyed God in Genesis 3:4-6. How can we deal with the root of sin in our lives? It is when we discover the things that God warns us in His word not to do and we run away from it, and completely refrain from it.
Proverbs 1:10 “My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.”
1 Corinthians 10:13 “No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it”.
Romans 3:23 “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,”
Acts 3:19 “Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.”
We cannot live in sin and pretend to serve God such services are not acceptable before God. When we claim to be righteous, the Bible says in Isaiah 64:6 “But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousness is as filthy rags; ---” God says our righteousness is like our filthy rags before God. When we recognize that we are sinners before God and need to be made right then we must make all conscious efforts to repent from our sinful nature and turn to God for cleansing.

Thought for the day: Seek to have a right standing with God, because without holiness no man shall see the Lord.

Song for the day: I surrender, all to Him my blessed savior I surrender.

Bible reading for the day:  Isaiah 55-56; 2 Thessalonians 1

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
