HAPPY THURSDAY PRECIOUS PEOPLE. TRUST WE DOING GREAT. SO TODAY I WILL BE DISCUSSING BREIFLY THROUGH THE LEADING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT ON THE TOPIC: ''THE UNSTABLE DOUBTING HEART''. SCRIPTURE REFERENCE ‘’ DEUTERONOMY 1: 1-46’’.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE UNSTABLE? TO BE UNSTABLE SIMPLY MEANS ''likely to change or fail; not firmly established'' OR ''sudden changes of mood''.
WHILE DOUBTING ''IS THE STATE OF UNCERTAINTY''.
NOW IF WE CAREFULLY READ THE STORY IN DEUTERONOMY 1:1-46. WE WILL SEE HOW THE ISREALITES WHERE UNSTABLE IN THEIR WAYS. IN THEIR WALK WITH GOD THEY DOUBTED GOD SO MANY TIMES AND IN DIFFERENT INSTANCES. BUT GOD IS SO MERCIFUL AND LOVING, DESPITE ALL WHAT THEY DID HE KEPT ON GUIDING THEM INSPITE OF THEIR SHORT COMINGS. BUT MUST WE CONTINUE TO OFFEND GOD, THAT GRACE MAY CONTINUE TO ABOUND? GOD FORBID. ( ROMANS 6:1). IF WE READ FURTHER IN VERSE 45, WE WILL SEE IT CAME TO A TIME WHEN, GOD DID NOT HARKEN TO THEIR VOICES, HE DIDNT LISTEN TO THEM AGAIN. HE WAS ANGRY. WHY DID GOD ACT THIS WAY? HE WARNED THEM SEVERALLY BUT THEY WOULDNT LISTEN. KEPT ON DISOBEYING AND REBELLING AGAINST GOD. OUR GOD IS A GOD OF PRINCIPLE AND AT THE SAME TIME HE IS LOVING. THAT DOSENT MEAN HE SHOULD BE TAKEN FOR GRANTED. HE IS ALL IN ALL.
LESSONS
DO NOT DOUBT GOD (SEARCHING) “DEUTERONOMY 1:24-25”
IT IS HIGHLY PROHIBITED TO MURMUR OR COMPLAIN AT GODS COMMANDMENT “DEUTERONOMY 1:26-28”
GOD DOSENT TURN HIS BACK ON US COMPLETELY, HE IS MERCIFUL AND LOVING “DEUTERONOMY 1:42””
CHERISH AND EMBRACE GODS SECOND CHANCE, HARKEN TO HIS VOICE ‘’ VERSES 43-45
AVOID BEEN PARTIAL.’’ VERSE 17’’
CONSEQUENCES OF THE UNSTABLE DOUBTING HEART
WHEN WE DOUBT AND DISOBEY GOD,THE FOLLOWING ARE BOUND TO ERUPT.
GODS ANGER IS AGGRAVATED. ‘’DEUTERONOMY 1:26-46’’
THE REWARD (PROMISE) IS TRANFERRED TO THE UNMERITED. VERSES 35-40
MAKES GOD SILENT. VERSE 45
LOSS OF BATTLE. VERSE 44
STAGNATION. VERSE 46.
ON A FINAL NOTE, GOD EXPECTS US TO BE STABLE IN HIM. THE BIBLE SAYS IN REVELATION 3:15-16 ‘’ I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot; I wish that you were cold or hot.
MAY GOD HELP US TO BE STABLE IN HIM, OBEDIENT TO HIS COMMANDMENTS AND ALSO HAVE A DOUBT-FREE HEART.
