STIFF NECKED

STIFF-NECKED?

What does it mean to be STIFF NECKED

It means to be stubbor and arrogant

It could also mean to go against the will of God

It could also mean a deliberate disobedience

It could also mean to resist the leading of the master. Remember the children of Israel and Mose in the wilderness.

TEXT is PROVERBS 29:1

Proverbs 29:1 If you get more stubborn every time you are corrected, one day you will be crushed and never recover.

As it is now many people in the world knows the right thing to do But refuse to do them

As it is now many knows good from evil

How do I know this

You see people hiding when they want to do evil But do not hide when they want to do good

The scripture above says that anyone who get more stubborn every time he or she is corrected will be crushed and never recover

Stop taking decision because of the present

That is why we see many people praying and blasting in tongues

But God is saying you are worshiping me with your mouth But your heart is far from me.

Do not purposely stiffen your neck and refuse His (JESUS)yoke in your life

You 've been ignoring the truth

But listen IGNORING THE TRUTH WILL NOT CHANGE THE TRUTH

God's firm foundation stands sure having this seal that the Lord knows those who are His and let everyone name after the name of the Lord depart from evil. 1 Peter 2:19

You've heard people telling you to give Jesus a chance in your life you tell them you do go to church what does that 've to do with giving Jesus a chance

See what Romans 1:28 says

1:28 Because those people refuse to keep in mind the true knowledge about God, he has given them over to corrupted minds, so that they do the things that they should not do.

Sir and ma please don't let God give up on you

Yes His mercy is new every morning But a time will come when the mercy will no longer be available. It will eventually elapse and shame is the end result.

You are accepting wrong friendship all because of sympathy

You are allowing your ERECTION determine your DIRECTION

You want to belong

You want to roll with the girls and guys in town

There is no time for this anymore

The earlier you accept the truth the better for us all and our nation

Are you STIFF-NECKED?

Are you saying how do I put a end to this

What happens to me me if I am STIFF-NECKED

1)Devil will 've an edge over you

2)God doesn't pay attention to
you

3)You begin to experience retrogression

4)You become a vessel unto dishonor

5)You become frustrated in life

Jesus is calling you to come back home

Don't harden your heart

Open your heart.

The more open you are to God the more light you receive

Just like the window of your house the amount of openness will be the amount of light that will come in

If you open all the part of the window you receive full light into your home

So is the heart

The more open you are to God the light you receive

I pray God will turn every of our stony heart to a heart of flesh that we may receive His word

Became people in this era are STIFF NECKED. Church is now telling them what they want to hear and not what God wants them to hear

Proverbs 29:1

If you get more stubborn every time you are corrected, one day you will be crushed and never recover.

I close with this if you don't want to be crushed I beseech you to go back to Jesus he is ever ready to accept you and me

Anytime But I tell you this now is the best time to go to him..because none of us knows what tomorrow holds

God bless you all For your time
