Failure to Believe

How many times did you tell your children (or you were told yourself) if you do that your going to get hurt? Well, our kids stop for the moment only to back to whatever they were doing when you weren't looking and then.....come crying out because they got hurt. They just didn't believe you knew about what you were talking. So they just went ahead and did exactly what you told them not to do. (Remember, this may fit you too).

Lot tried to warn his family and future son-in-laws.

Gen 19:12-14 12 Then the two men said to Lot, "Whom else have you here? A son-in-law, and your sons, and your daughters, and whomever you have in the city, bring them out of the place; 13 for we are about to destroy this place, because their outcry has become so great before the Lord that the Lord has sent us to destroy it." 14 Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law, who were to marry his daughters, and said, "Up, get out of this place, for the Lord will destroy the city." But he appeared to his sons-in-law to be jesting. NASU

God has provided many warning in the Scriptures.

Rom 6:23 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. NASU

Luke 13:3-53 "I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish. 4 "Or do you suppose that those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them were worse culprits than all the men who live in Jerusalem? 5 "I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish." NASU

These are two warning that God has provided. Don't be like Lot's son-in-laws who those he was teasing.God is not teasing. The warning is real.

Today, confess your sins and ask Jesus to forgive your sins and come into your life.

Let today be the day change begins.
