Text : Ecclesiastes 11:4
He that observes the wind shall not sow; and he that regards the clouds shall not reap.
The scriptures clearly stated in Romans 2:1, "...you are inexcusable, O man..."
The most unfortunate and sorrowful excuse a man can give is one given against the SALVATION of his soul. Though this begins with you confessing Christ as your Savior and Lord, but it does not end with that. The very end of our faith is the salvation of our souls.
1 Peter 1:9 says *"receiving the end of your faith—the salvation of your souls."*
God really wants to produce children after His first begotten- Jesus Christ our Lord. That's our pursuit and our calling. That's what we are called into from the very beginning when we got born again.God wants to indwell us spirit, soul and body; this is our salvation.
*For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.(Romans 8:29).*
So many Christians, having stayed in the church for so many years begin to wonder what's more to this Christianity journey? That's when you start to see all manner of works of the flesh manifesting itself in the church, and one begins to wonder, "I thought this person has been in Christ for a while" *Maturity in God is not about how many years you've been in church, but to how much of God you have trapped in your soul through obedience.*
So, you can't give excuse for not going all the way into God's salvation as programmed for you in Christ Jesus.
There is more to our Christianity than just attending church services, serving as church worker, praying in tongues, preaching, healing the sick. Our calling is salvation- that's the restoration of all things that man has lost. It is the saving of man from the reach of Sin, Satan Death, and Grave. It is our journey into the very eternal life Promised abinitio. And this is the promise that he has promised us, even eternal life.(1 John 2:25).
Eternal life is not just what we claim or profess, it is the very (uncreated) life of God present within a man here on earth. When eternal life is present within you, you are simply another Jesus walking on the street. This is God's promise, please don't let's stop our journey along the way until we reach the promise.
The scriptures in Hebrews 2:3 clearly stated that none can escape if salvation be neglected.
"How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him".
Like Apostle Paul declared in Philippians 3:14, "I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus." you can also do same without any further excuse.
*Bible reading:*
Luke 14:16-21.
*PRAYER FOCUS*
1.) Father God, I receive grace to be delivered from every kind of excuses that I always give to defend the course of the enemy in my life in Jesus name.
