Do Not Settle For The Permissive Will Of God In Marriage  

Text: Numbers 24:14-22        

Friday 7th March

Key Verse: There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. Proverbs 14:12
God knows how to allow people have their own way. The prodigal son’s father allowed his son, not according to his will. If he did not allow him, the young man would not give him peace. Eventually his son would affect others. God is a witness that Balaam was stopped but he refused. He was chastised but he refused to listen, so he was allowed.
God allowed Balaam to go and do his own will. God would still be glorified. Balaam went to hell, but the virtuous words and inspiration of Balaam remained for our righteousness. God can allow you to marry a sinner to your hurt, because of your disobedience. You may end up in hell, but God would remain faithful as a God of truth and love. Our God is a wise God. The father of the prodigal son allowed his son to have his will, certainly with much pressure on the father and rejection of the father’s instruction. The prodigal son had devised a way to his own hurt. If the father did not allow him, he too would suffer from the son’s continual troubling. The same thing goes for those who are solemnly warned against marrying each other, because of blood group or dangerous illness but refused to listen.
It was for mundane things that Balaam was carried away, otherwise, the Lord had told him, “Do not go with them.” Now that his heart was bent on going with them; in other words, the Lord gave him His permissive will to satisfy his carnal desire, but he later paid dearly for it. You will certainly regret it, if you insist on your will, to marry someone you know clearly the Lord has not approved for you. What you think you will benefit from the person shall turn to vanity and vexation of spirit.
Thought For The Day: God knows how to allow people have their own way. 
Song of the day: Follow, follow, I will follow Jesus………

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
