TOPIC: IT IS NOT OPTIONAL TO BE BORN AGAIN  

TEXT: PSALM 32:3-5

3. When I kept silence, my bones waxed old Through my roaring all the day long.

4. For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: My moisture is turned into the drought of summer. Selah.

5. I acknowledged my sin unto thee, And mine iniquity have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; And thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah.

KEY VERSE: 1 JOHN 3:9 “Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin, for His seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God”.

God desires everyone to know Him and His righteous ways and repent of their sins. He wants them to come to Him and acknowledge that they are sinners. In the case of David, when he was silent on his sinful life, he didn’t have rest. His throat and body were dry. His bones were making noise because there was no rest within him. He could not sleep when he thought of God’s judgement and consequences coming 

up against him because of his sins. 

You are not concerned, instead of repenting you begin to tell more lies to cover your sins. How do you think you will recover yourself? Unless you acknowledge that you are a sinner, lusting after women, committing fornication, adultery, masturbation, homosexuality, taking alcohol and all manners of evil, you will not be forgiven. 

Stop pretending, cry to God over your sins and He will forgive you. So long as you still practice witchcraft, collecting charms and ready to fight, you are not born again. 

Church activities and spiritual exercise cannot take to heaven. 

You must be born again to get sin out of your life, otherwise you will do all church activities and remain unsaved. Has anybody been delivered from witchcraft because he is an elder or she is a women leader? Have you heard that a woman stopped immorality and abortion because she is in the choir? 

Born again means that you have repented of your sins, having received Jesus as your Lord and savior and God has forgiven you your sins. It means also that you come to Jesus in your sins and ask Him to show you mercy, to save you, to forgive you and give you a new life. He will say to you your sins are forgiven, go and sin no more as he said to the woman caught in adultery. It follows that you have forsaken sins and not committing sin anymore.

Thought for the day: Examine yourself if there is sin, repent and ask God for mercy

Song for the day: What is the hope I have, the kingdom of God is the hope I have..

 Bible reading for the day: Ecclesiastes 9-12
