Steemchurch: Your decisions determine your blessings

in #steemchurch6 years ago

Are you in the right or wrong place?(sentimental, in the form of investing your resources, in your spiritual area). Because in the case that you know you are in the wrong place, then you know that you will not reach the desired place. But there are people who are or have the wrong things and therefore do not reach the desired place.

Joshua 6: 18-19 (They were about to take Jericho, and it was clearly established by God that they could carry and not) They had victory in Jericho, and then what? (Why this question? Because many of us already had several victories or an important one, but after that? We do not live forever of a conquest)

Joshua 7: 1 Was all that the Lord had commanded? No, they had brought what they did not owe.

Joshua 7: 2-5 (This was a very small battle compared to the one they had just won against Jericho, did it happen to them that they ever estimated some battle, temptation, a person and then you end up losing because of that?

Joshua 7: 6-13 Here we are going to stop to analyze. How to win where you had defeats before? For this we will first analyze why sometimes God allows his people to have defeats? Did they ever ask themselves that? Because of sin, Israel has sinned.

Do you think you can sin and nothing happens? Do you think that by being able to get used to sin that will make God also become indifferent to it? (Galatians 6: 7 "Do not be deceived: God can not be mocked: for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.")

Sin is not a game, everything that man sows, this also reap, imagine if we sow sin, Romans 6:23 "because the wages of sin is death ..."

Do you expect God to give you victory while in sin? Sadly God is not going to give you victory in that state, why are you waiting to give up sin? In the field that is. Because to human eyes we would say that it was a "macana this sin committed, it is not so serious ..."

Getting into sin is something that everyone decides to do or not do.

Nothing can hurt you but sin.

Nothing can make you sad but sin.

Nothing can degrade you before your enemies but sin.

Beware of sin! "If you give a centimeter to sin, it will take a kilometer."

Let us not deceive ourselves by believing that it is enough to abandon our internal vices, nor that it will be enough to abandon the most corrupted sins of our lives; what God demands is all or nothing.

We can not assume that the God of the Bible can leave sin without punishment. Some may guess; they can in their imaginations get to put that in their intellects, but nobody with a sound spiritual judgment can conceive a God without justice.

To believe that there will be no punishment for sin and that a man can be saved without repentance is to face the scriptures directly. Breaking the covenant with God (verse 11 "and they have even broken my covenant that I commanded them"). What is the difference between the mundane and the Christian? The pact.

1 Samuel 17:26 "Then David spoke to those who stood by him, saying, What shall they do to the man who kills this Philistine, and will take away the reproach from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, to provoke the squads of the living God? "Why does David speak like that? Why did he dare to face Goliath? Because I knew the power of the covenant with God! That's why he did not say Who is that giant? But he said, Who is that uncircumcised Philistine?

Jeremiah 32:40 "I will make an everlasting covenant with them, by which I will not depart from them, to do them good ..."

Matthew 24:35 "Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away." His covenant is eternal, his covenant symbolizes alliance, symbolizes union.

Let me ask you something, did you make a covenant with God that you are not fulfilling? What are you delaying? Ecclesiastes 5: 4-5 "When you make a promise to God, do not delay in fulfilling it; because he does not take pleasure in the fools. Do what you promise. It is better that you do not promise, and not that you promise and not fulfill. "

Take the anathema. What is anathema? Something cursed, something set apart by God. We can talk, for example, about the "San Juan" party, some will say that I am an extremist, but have you ever read the story of the party? It is the story of when Jezebel ordered the head of John the Baptist to be cut off and with his head they celebrated afterwards that he was not going to bother them with the word of God. It is a feast consecrated to their gods.

Going to the disco, listening to pagan music, are other things that you should analyze if they are not part of the anathema that you have and prevents you from achieving your victory. Just as your decision determines your blessing, you also need to know that your decision determines your curse! Take a man / woman not consecrated to God. Do you think God does not see that? Did you think that God is going to stay with folded arms after all the plans he has with you since you were forming in your mother?

Steal. The synonym of stealing is stealing. Surely you said "I'm not a thief ..." the sad thing is that there are many who steal from God. How is that? Look at Malachi 3: 8 "Will a man rob God? Well, you have stolen me. And you said: what have we stolen from you? In your tithes and offerings". Do you understand now another of the things that could be preventing your victory? Then change already.

Lie. Do you need to explain much what this means? Matthew 5:37 "But let your speech be: yes, yes; no no; because what is more of this, of evil proceeds. "

What decisions should I make?

Get up Fallen in sin we can not reach victory, fallen before the temptations of the devil we will not arrive, fallen to the pleasures of the world will not be possible. Get up, the one who gets up puts himself in a position to move forward. All achievement begins with the decision to try. Perhaps all this word the only thing that really wants to say to someone of you is "it's your time to get up".

Sanctify us Hebrews 12:14 "without holiness no one will see God". 1 Peter 1:16 "Be holy, for I am holy."

Holiness is the seal that the children of God have in their hearts. What benefit do you plan to take away in the wrong place? We are going to put the basket also here ahead, in case someone today wants to put himself to account with God giving him what belongs to Him. The altar is open, for those who want to rise today in the spiritual, sanctify and even remove the anathema that may be.

It does not matter that they have laughed one or more times because of your defeat. These changes that we speak today when you do them will give you the victory where you have been defeated so far. There are defeats in our lives "until you make a decision or more than one. Your decision determines your blessing. There are decisions that recover positions.

Sort:  

The decisions bring eternal consequences, for example, the decision made by the inhabitants of the land in the time of the prophet Noah, when they mocked and laughed at this servant of God because he was building a ship called the ark. But they stopped laughing and their mocking gestures also stopped when the rain started and it did not stop. Those men had made a decision contrary to the instructions of the prophet of God, and paid with their lives the price of it.

DR

The best decision we can make in our lives is to be followers of Christ, to fulfill his commandments, others will come in addition.

This is just an amazing "It does not matter that they have laughed one or more times because of your defeat. These changes that we speak today when you do them will give you the victory where you have been defeated so far. There are defeats in our lives "until you make a decision or more than one. Your decision determines your blessing. There are decisions that recover positions"

Sinning is your choice, temptation is not but when you fall for it ,you have fallen from God's grace.
The altar is open, for those who want to rise today in the spiritual, sanctify and even remove the anathema that may be.

One of the great opportunity God gave to us is the opportunity to choose.
Despite the fact that God loves us, He has prepared everything we need to live life to the fullness and to make it to heaven. He is God that is always committed to doing His own part but we can decide to follow His way and enjoy the reward or follow our own ways and forfeit the rewards.
He advice us to choose life even after putting life and death before us. He is a great and loving God

Our rewards have always been the aftermath of our decision, as we ate given free choice so do we take any consequence that comes as the decisions where being taken.

The first decision we make in our lives that determines our future, our blessings and our eternal life is to follow Christ, and every other decision comes second

In making our decisions in life we ought to acknowledge God as the best decision maker of our life and ask him for directions. Never do things by your might. God expects us to go through the scripture and find the truth to decision making

there is a proverb,you are born looking like your parents and grow up looking like your DECISIONS. Many people who have made meaning out of life are examples of people who made the right decisions in the course of life.Nice post,i appreciate.It has really taught me

It's good we always make the right decisions, cause at the end it matters alot.
