Why sit we here till we die?

the case of the four lepers

Leprosy was such a dreaded skin disease in the old testament that these four lepers were never to enter into the congregation of men again. They were hopeless, even though they were not dead. Their families must have wept and mourned for them even though they were still alive because as far as they were concerned, they were as good as dead.

And the Bible says " and they said one to another, why sit we here until we die? " That was a very wonderful question . I do not know if you understand what that means.
" Why accept this situation until it kills us? Why submit our lives to this situation until it kills us? Why submit our lives to this situation until we die? ". Something was happening to them . Something was causing them to re-evaluate their lives. They seemed to have said, " does it mean that our lives will just waste away like this and we can do nothing about it? Why sit we here until we die? ""

What is the meaning of sit ? It means to relax , to settle . The first question that those people asked themselves is what each one of us needs to ask ourselves. Must you sit down in the situations in which you find your life today,until you die? I have met people who started fornicating while in secondary school, they went through the university and are now working ; yet with thesame problem. If you are such a person,I want to ask you, why sit you here, until you die? Why sit in the place of a fornicator until you die? Why sit there as if you are destined to die a fornicator? Why can't your story change? Why sit you here? Why do you settle ,accept and agree with this terrible condition of your life until you die? For God to change your life ,you must consider where you are sitting and you must ask yourself, why am I sitting in this condition ? Why am I sitting ,accepting ,relaxing and agreeing with my situation? Is it where God intends me to sit till I die?

You can quickly estimate and evaluate where you are sitting . Why is it that year in year out ,you are a grumbler? Something always goes wrong with you. You are always complaining . Why sit you there until you die ? Why? For what purpose, for what cause , what is it that is making you sit here. Why are you sitting here as a complainer everyday? Why do you sit here always crying ,finding fault, criticizing yourself and always having problems.? God has not destined you to sit in that position.the leper understood leprosy was not enough reason for them to sit there.

Your first need is to hate where you are sitting, to query your present level, your present difficulties and predicaments ,even if your present condition is good, it can be better. Could it be that any time you want to say why sit I here? A false religious spirit would quickly jump into your head and tell you it is the will of God for you? Have you ever thought of finding out why it is the will of God for you?
The devil could quickly tell you now endure ,it is not forever , it is only until you die! And you might have agreed with him. The good news is. Until you query your life. No adjustment can be made. Until you evaluate a project, you can't find it weakness and make adjustment. Why not take the bold step today, take the risk and break away from your comfort zone. Doing the opposite could be your sitting point
