Secret Insanity

S.E.E.D. For Today

Scripture: "How Can I Know All The Sins Lurking In My Heart? Cleanse Me From These Hidden Faults (this secret insanity)." Psalms 19:12

Explanation: How can a person discern what's really in them? For the most part we don't. Jeremiah 17:9 explains it like this; "The human heart is the most deceitful of all things, and it is desperately wicked. who really knows how bad it is?" In our heart lurks this secret insanity, like extreme foolishness, irrationality, stupidity, silliness, and craziness. David understood this very well, he asked God to create in him a clean heart, he understood that it would take the creative power of God to renew his heart and everything that was lurking within it. Cleanse the cancer (sin) that lie secretly in our hearts. Job said in chapter 34:32 "Teach me what I cannot see, if I have done wrong, so that I won't do it again."

Example: We are all subject to deviate from the disciplines of our divine nature. In this human nature dwells within us so many sins that we do not understand the number of them. If left without perception this heinous and malignant nature can catch us unaware and enslave us all over again. Thank God our secret insanity is not a secret to God and that it is not our ruin.

Devotion: Pray for the grace to understand what we cannot see. That God will pardon us for the secret faults (insanity) that lurks within our heart. Petition God to keep you from being offensive, and that the insanity of sin does not take dominion over you. Pray that your heart not fail you and those things that are hidden from you be exposed by the light of His presence. In Jesus Name Amen.

UN-DO!

S.E.E.D. For Today: Scripture: "Undo The Heavy Burdens" ( Isaiah 58:6 ) Example: There was a great deal of injustice in the land and with the rich exploiting the poor and the rulers using their authority only to make themselves richer. It was a conflict between truth and lies, just like in our land today. The people of God were no different in operating under the same system as this. But God called them out and wanted them to understand that their fasting was in vain if they did not undo the heavy burden they placed on others while still outwardly devoting themselves to religion or as they thought to God. Exercise: Let's invite the Holy Spirit to solve problems and aid us in lifting loads and overcome barriers that keep us and our loved ones from walking joyfully in the Lord. In self-denying love and care for others, let's undo any heavy burden or untie any yoke that we may have placed upon friends, family, associates or even employees. Devotion: Lord toda...

Bursting Out Of It!

S.E.E.D. For Today:  Scripture: "Is this not the the fast which I have chosen: Loosen the bonds of wickedness." ( Isaiah 58:6 ) Explanation: There should be the right motive when we fast. The people of God in Isaiah observed but there was no change in them. When fasting we do not want to look at it as a religious ritual, but a means to transformation. The fruit of repentance ought to be evident in relationship with one another and our neighbor. If we fast and persist in arrogance, stubbornness, fighting and strife then we are only doing this out of routine. Exercise: Prayer is important to experience the grace and power of God when fasting. Without the consistency of prayer we will not see breakthrough. God is challenging us to do the fast He has chosen, the first means of business is releasing or loosing the bonds of wickedness. Whatever besets itself and entangles you again under the same slave system of missing the mark with God has to let you go. I challenge you ...

MOTIVATE

S.E.E.D. For Today_ Motivate S-cripture Hebrews 10:24 "Let Us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works" NLT The author's exhortation of faith, hope and love elaborates on the greatest of this triad which is love. Love is the greatest way to motivate because it is communal that it reaches out to others. The writer incites the believer that with great enthusiasm we motivate one another to love and to do good works. Example Provoke, encourage, stimulate, push, sharpen, provide the stimulus needed to go forth or not give up. Exercise Today challenge yourself to think of ways to motivate one another, pick up the phone call someone and motivate them to continue in the Lord, motivate someone to forgive and move forward, love and not hate, to be confident in God's Word for their lives. Motivate one another not to let sin deceive them, think of ways to provide the stimulus needed for the individuals you consider to reach. Devotion Lord ...
