THE LORD IS RIGHTEOUS HE IS IN HER MIDST, HE WILL DO NO UNRIGHTEOUSNESS EVERY MORNING HE BRINGS HIS JUSTICE TO LIGHT HE NEVER FAILS BUT THE UNJUST KNOWS NO SHAME......ref/ ZEPHANIAH 3:5. |
THANK GOD!............ FOR SHAME |
The first recorded incident of shame in the Holy Bible was written in the book of Genesis Genesis 3:7. |
|
GOD/YAH!...Never fails to make a way for the human race to realize that He is Holy 1 Samuel 2 : 2. |
Do we ever sit down and thank GOD for the warning device called shame? Most believe today that if the shame is induced by the preaching of the Word of GOD, that the preacher is not of GOD. We have a gospel that is becoming very popular in the world today and when it is preached, it brings no guilt or any consciousness of dishonour toward the Holy One/JESUS in the hearts of those who live contrary to the word of GOD, whether Christian or non-Christian. It is not a bad thing that churches and ministers alike have those who continually bring them into check over covetousness, heresies and worldliness. It is the love of GOD trying to turn them before its to late. JESUS SAID TO THE CHRISTIANS IN THE CHURCH BASED AT LAODECIA I COUNSEL YOU! TO BUY FROM ME GOLD REFINED IN THE FIRE
THAT YOU MAY BE RICH
AND WHITE GARMENTS THAT YOU MAY BE CLOTHED
THAT THE SHAME OF YOUR NAKEDNESS MAY NOT
BE REVEALED AND ANOINT YOUR EYES WITH EYE SALVE
THAT YOU MAY SEE....REVELATION
3:18. The laodecians had no shame! They were not conscious of their attitude toward GOD. They were dishonouring Him and they were too blind to see it, for all they could see was wealth, $$$, clothes and themselves. It says
They! Had not want. JESUS counselled them and
said
you are naked. The unjust have no shame says the LORD
The Apostate
Attitude. GOD was once in the midst of these Laodecians, however in the process of time JESUS ended up at the door and refused to go any further till these particular Christians repented of their sins and changed their attitude toward Him and gave Him number one place in their lives. JESUS said that the Laodecians were not just naked and blind but
also poor, and miserable, wretched and a shame to His name. We become everything that
carnal men and women dont want to be when we give not JESUS pre-eminence in our
lives....Colossians 1:18. AMEN. |
