Hidden Secrets
Good morning
Scripture reading: Ephesians 5:1-20
Worship song: I repent
Meditation:
There is an alarming revelation taking place in our society today. As I watch the unfolding of events around us and all over the world via the different media platforms, I realize that the skeletons that were once hidden in closets are now coming to light. There are no secrets that shall not be made manifest, nor anything hidden that shall not be known and come abroad. The truth about what is going on in the secret places of homes, some places of worship, and across the world is now being revealed. The reality of what is taking place hits home as we are reminded of the sin that kindled the wrath of God and separated us from him.
Today, not only in one nation but all across the
globe, people are indulging in promiscuous sin, ignoring and turning a blind
eye to the commandments and the laws of God, and twisting the word of God to
suit their lifestyle. The time is coming and is now here when people won't
listen to good teaching. Instead, they look for teachers who will please them
by telling them only what they are itching to hear. Dear children, do not be
deceived, nor be dismayed, for Satan is a deceiver walking about seeking whom
he can devour. Walk circumspectly, not like fools, but as wise, redeeming the
time because we are living in the evil days. Do not be caught in the chaos;
shun evil appearances and walk as children of light.
Sovereign God, creator of heaven and earth, I adore you, O
God, for sending your only son, Jesus Christ, to show us the way that leads to
salvation. Lord, we cannot resist the dominant power of sin, except you abide
with us, so we beseech you, Lord, to keep us from the traps that the devil has
laid for us and help us not become entangled again in the yoke of bondage.
Almighty God, shield and guard our hearts and minds from evil persuaders and
advisors. Father, O Heavenly Father, guard our hearts and let not sin have
dominion power over us, neither let us be consumed by ungodliness. Grant us
wisdom, knowledge, and understanding of your word, O God, lest we gravitate to
the doctrine of false teachings. Father, let not the hand of evil spread its
blanket over our lives. Withdraw not from us thy indwelling grace, O God, in
the mighty name of Jesus Christ our Saviour. Amen.
Shalom. ✌💖
The eyes of the Lord are in every place beholding the good and the evil. With this knowledge no one have to tell on anyone because God sees and knows everything.
ReplyDeleteOur conscience plays apart by showing us red to indicate that something is wrong. While driving in this case living, look for dashboard red light and don't ignore because one can be left stranded on the road. Let us drive rather walk good. Shalom.
Lord, help me to shun the appearance of evil and walk not as fool but as a wise child of God building my faith on the rock which is Jesus Christ.
