The Other Cry!

The Other Cry!

Genesis 18:20 – And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous;

Cry usually denotes a plea for assistance. When someone cries, he/she is calling for help, showing that he/she is grieved or in pains, see Genesis 27:34, Exodus 2:23, Genesis 4:10. This cry is a positive cry, but there is a negative cry also.

The other cry is the negative cry. This is as a result of sin. Whenever the creatures of God sin and act in their ways then there is a cry. Our spirit which is the breadth of life given to us by God makes this cry unto God. Even while our body might be enjoying, our spirit is crying!

Genesis 13:13 and Genesis 19:13 also tells us of the negative cry. This negative cry when it comes up to God causes destruction of the body and soul whose spirit has been crying. Sodom and Gomorrah was destroyed because of this cry. God will help us not to continue in sin.

The positive cry brings salvation and help from God but this negative cry cause death. Beloved, make it your aim not to make the spirit of another [just like the case of Abel] nor your own spirit to cry unto God because of your sins and actions.

Heart Not Garment - 2

By Date -
"Rend your heart, and not your garments." --Joel 2:13 Apart from vital godliness all religion is utterly vain; offered without a sincere heart, every form of worship is a solemn sham and an impudent mockery of the majesty of heaven. HEART-RENDING is divinely wrought and solemnly felt. It is a secret grief which is personally experienced, not in mere form, but as a deep, soul-moving work of the Holy Spirit upon the inmost heart of each believer. It is not a matter to be merely talked of and believed in, but keenly and sensitively felt in every living child of the living God. It is powerfully humiliating, and completely sin-purging; but then it is sweetly preparative for those gracious consolations which proud un-humbled spirits are unable to receive; and it is distinctly discriminating, for it belongs to the elect of God, and to them alone.

The True Picture Of The Church Today II

By Date -
THE CHOSEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL DATE: Sunday 7th, June 2020. TOPIC: The True Picture Of The Church Today II TEXT: Rev. 3:15  MESSAGE "I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot".Vs 15, so then because thou art lukewarm, neither cold nor hot, I will spew thee out of my mouth. Lukewarmness and indifference in religion is the worst tempter in the world. The husband of a lukewarm wife is always confused as he would not know when and how to please the wife. So are members of the church whose heart cannot be determined. They are between two opinions. We also have these in the church because they are high minded and proud, they have unknowingly overlooked the necessity of their souls as they gorgeously dressed up in Costly apparel at the expense and decay of their souls, making them to be wretched poor and miserable.  Also there is the state of blindness which the devil is using against the church today which has made them very weak and defensele...
