For the look on their faces bears witness against them; they proclaim their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! For they have brought evil on themselves.
This is my third attempt at getting a Word of the Lord right. The word preparedness came to me 2 days ago. My first instinct was wrong. My second attempt was a little better, but I still did not have the message right.
Third time’s the charm. Right? We shall see.
For Moses had said, Consecrate yourselves today to the Lord, even every man upon his son, and upon his brother; that he may bestow upon you a blessing this day.
I left off yesterday with the message that the Spirit instructs us with what we are to do today. Having been given the Word Preparedness I went into tomorrow for an answer that fits today. It turns out I can’t even take my own advice.
Consecrate yourselves to the Lord TODAY, it is the only day you have and there is no promise of a tomorrow.
That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
We are all in this together, sinners and saints alike. The only thing that separates us is the faith we have placed in Jesus Christ.
That faith serves us for a blessing today, not tomorrow.
His blessing comes today because we are faithful today. Who knows what tomorrow brings?
Looking at the woes in life will only see death and destruction. That saves no one.
He is giving us a blessing so that we can be a blessing, today.
But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called “today,” that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
I pray this will encourage you.
