Where is the faith of the believer? Have we all gone mad and given in to the lies of the enemy. Today many believers are forfeiting too much of their time to believe in things that have no substance. We are risking our souls to indulge in mirages that we think are promises but are just temporary lures of the devil. He wants every believer to overwhelm themselves with what is pleasurable to the flesh, but forgetting the eternal consequences of disobeying God. Believer's today are deteriorating in sin, we have betrayed ourselves and we have become our own enemy. We can't help it when Satan and His demons tempt us, but when we tempt ourselves, then we tempt God by forcing Him to intervene and rescue us by daring Him to stop us.
It's scary to see how quickly we can get accustomed to bondage, but not enjoy the freedom that has been given to us through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. How can we confess that we are Christians, but never live in the likeness of Him. For some it's nothing but a word! When gangs make their confession of who they are people know it's the truth because of the behavior that comes with the name they serve. If someone is a blood or crypt they will live up to the title even if it means death. Why can't we live up to the name we so boldly confess.
In the world promises are easily broken, but God is not like man He does not break promises! Samson was a man who was born with a special calling on his life, and given a godly heritage, but his desires ruined the benefits of his future. Like many of us today we continue in sin because we still have settle victories and we have learned to live accustomed to that. We go back again and again because we continue to get away with what we shouldn't do, believing there is more time for one more hayride in the land of funk (a name I have given sin). Why allow your desires to disqualify you from your great future! You were born to be a child of God with unbelievable promise, never let anyone convince you of anything different.
Decisions determine destiny, before we ruin it for good, take a long term perspective when making your next move, never make your decisions based on simply satisfying a short term need.We are a people who have been designed with desire in us, but we must make the right choices of where our desires take us, our desire should be to obey God. Why give up your future benefits to fulfill an illicit desire today.
God is not slow in doing what He has promised, He will return and if He has made a promise personally to you it shall come to pass, but God in His mercy is holding back for your sake, He wants His children to change. Too many of us are risking eternal life with Him because of today's wants that are not apart of His will for our lives. But I love the Lord for His mercy and His grace, He has held back judgment upon our lives that we would have the opportunity to change the way we think and the way we act.Don't blow it people of God, don't lose out on a great future for a measly thrill with no benefits!
Are you able to give up today's desire's for the benefits God has allotted to you? Don't lose your inheritance.
