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.

Divine Opening

Divine Opening “ Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut; ” - - - Isaiah 45:1 Hallelujah! God has graciously brought us to the second month of this year. As the Lord themed this year as our year of Divine Beautification so also is this month themed as our month of Divine Openings. You may be thinking how will come bring to past His promises but remember that God can do anything at any time He wishes to. He can use anyone to bring to pass this Divine Opening. From the passage, He used Cyrus to subdue nations and Jehovah using any person to do His will is not an issue. I pray that in any area of your life that you are experiencing difficult and closed doors, Jehovah will cause the doors to be open unto you. No more will you experience difficulty and shortages. The doors of your supply are open...

Do Your Search

Do Your Search Acts 17:11 – These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. While in college and high school, you will agree with me that after you are taught by your instructor, you carried out some search to attain the truth and to know more. This we all did for a degree and knowledge that is corruptible, aren’t we supposed to do more for a knowledge that incorruptible and that will lead to our salvation? It is advisable that we should always search the scriptures even if it is the most revered religious leader or person that just spoken from the scripture. To stay deceivable then don’t study or search the scriptures but remember many even the agents of darkness can preach and quote the scriptures but they do this by tailoring the scripture to suite their purpose, 1 Thessalonians 5:21, 2 Corinthian 11:14-15. Beloved study your bible frequently, 2 Timoth...

Make Me Known!

Make Me Known! Habakkuk 3:2 [2] Yahweh, I have heard of your fame. I stand in awe of your deeds, Yahweh. Renew your work in the middle of the years. In the middle of the years make it known. In wrath, you remember mercy. Thanks to Jehovah that were in the second half of the year and in the month of revival. By grace even as you have reverential awe and fear for the Lord, the divine revival will continue throughout your life time. I write to you under grace that the Good thing you heard and saw that was done by God will be repeated in your life. Even those things that haven't been heard, seen or perceived; receive grace to testify of it in your life. God will announce you to your world. He'll redo all the good He did in your life. His mercy will always speak for you. Let's Pray 1) Father, I thank you for your revival for me in this midst of 2017. 2) Redo your miracles, testimonies, uplifting and wonders in my life. 3) Lord, let your mercy speak for me. 4) Lord...
