Do Not Sell Your Conscience III

THE CHOSEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL

DATE: Friday 5th, June 2020.
TOPIC: Do Not Sell Your Conscience III
TEXT: 1 Chronicles. 5:1-10 

MESSAGE
Many Christians find it difficult to shine or make the optimum use of their gift and talents as a result of sin. The skeleton in their cupboard is not a barrier depriving them from discharging their duties. The righteous the Bible says, are as bold as the lion. Sin is a tool with which the devil keeps us in constant and perpetual bondage. Will the pastor preach against fornication and adultery in the communication where he has one or more lovers -sexual partners? What message has the undiscipline senior elder for the undiscipline floor members? Because of the lack of self-control, we are not able to be actually what God wants us to be. Reuben the first born of Isreal (Jacob) also had the ugly trace. Old sin has a long shadow. 



The fact that he sold his conscience by committing abomination, he could not flow into his inheritance as first born. He was disqualified and lost his right to the son of Joseph (Ephraim and Manasseh). Verse 1 of our text reads, 
"Now the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel, (for he was the firstborn; but forasmuch as he defiled his father's bed, his birthright was given unto the sons of Joseph the son of Israel: and the genealogy is not to be reckoned after the birthright."



Our sins rewrite our destinies and relegate us to the background. You see what sin can do? It lessen men, trust them down from excellencies, leaves indelible stains on men's names and their progeny and is a reproach which time or history can never wipe away. Beloved, sin removes us from the choice of God's grace, because God is looking for men after his heart not men after their bellies (urges). Righteousness always  is counted for double honour. Let's not our urges control or lead us into sin because it does not end, it lingers on. Good day.

PRAYER POINTS: 
START WITH PRAISE & WORSHIP..
1. Appreciate God for His favour and mercy.
2. Where God to forgive you your sin as you are ready to serve Him in full.
3. Ask God to strengthen you to become bold in spreading the gospel and never to go back to the world.
4. Pray for the power to avoid and overcome sin in every ramification.

Sheep’s Clothing!

Sheep’s Clothing! Matthew 7:14 – Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. It is no more a news that there are many false prophets in this world. They have been even since the Bible days. Elymas in Acts 13:8 was a false prophet that tried to pervert the heart of the people from God. That is the work of these false prophets. They are workers of the devil and nothing about their life is God’s; from the outside they look like God’s prophets and messengers but they are recruiting souls for the devil. They use magic, human wisdom, human strategies to do their work. Consider again, Balaam to an extent I will consider him as a false prophet because he tried to curse the blessed of God and to stop the will of God for His children. Though Balaam hears from God but he wasn’t doing things according to God’s plan and agenda. He planned to even make God’s children fall. Please read Revelation 2:14 and Jude 1:11. Those in sheep’s c

Ceaseless Celebration

Ceaseless Celebration Leviticus 26:6 – And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid: and I will rid evil beasts out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land Ezekiel 32:1-10; 34:25-31, Esther 9:1-22, Jeremiah 52:31-34 With Joy, I welcome you all into this month. In this month, we will record ceaseless celebration on every side. This is as a result of what God has done for us and what He is doing as well. He has given us peace and rest on every side. He has incapacitated the enemies of our lives. This is indeed wonderful. In this last month of 2017, the magnitude of God’s judgement on the enemies of your life will render them missing on Earth and you will be celebrated. If you haven’t celebrated this year, this month grace will make you celebrate and if you had celebrated, your celebration will not cease or to sorrow. God will put laughter on your face, royal garments on you and you will be recompensed for all the cel

Grace for Exceeding Multiplication

Grace for Exceeding Multiplication Genesis 17:1-2, 2 Corinthians 8:9 [2] And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly. Grace is God's Riches At Christ Expense. It is the almightiness of God invading the hopelessness of human. It is a commander of attention. It reduces sweat and increases accomplishments, Psalm 89:20. Exceeding means to be very great and to surpass others. To set a new record. Multiplication is to increase greatly in number, not step by step as in addition. PREREQUISITE 1 - OBEDIENCE - Leviticus 25:18 You can't increase when you are unfaithful in your tithing obligation and others. 2 - REMEMBER THOSE THAT HAVE RULE OVER YOU - Hebrews 13:7. The blessing is given by GRACE and the blessing can be multiplied by GRACE, 2 Corinthians 8:1-4, Acts 4:32-35. PRAYERS May Divine grace for expansion be released upon us - Amen. ________________ A sermon by Apostle Samuel Idedevwo of Christ's Chosen Church of God
