Today’s
Feast
A
Little White Lie?
Please
join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We will spend about
fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s
Word in approximately three years1.
“25
Fear
of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is
kept safe.”
Proverbs
29:25
New King James Version (NKJV).
Dear
Saints,
Today
we prayerfully continue our Feast by reading the book of Genesis
;
Chapter
26;
“Isaac, because
of famine, goes to Gerar. (1-5)
He denies his wife and is reproved by Abimelech. (6-11)
Isaac grows rich, The Philistines' envy. (12-17)
Isaac digs wells God blesses him. (18-25)
Abimelech makes a covenant with Isaac. (26-33)
Esau's wives. (34,35) “
-
Matthew
Henry Concise
We continue our
Feast in Genesis
26.
Today’s Feast sounds familiar; “6
So Isaac settled in Gerar. 7 When the men of the place asked him
about his wife, he said, “She is my sister,” for he feared to
say, “My wife,” thinking, “lest the men of the place should
kill me because of Rebekah,” because she was attractive in
appearance.”
Genesis
26:6-7
NKJV.
Now
is my memory (more than normal) failing me? Didn’t Isaac’s
father tell the same little “white lie”? Was this a common lie
in these times; “2And
Abraham said of Sarah his wife,”She is my sister.” And
Abimelech king of Gerar sent and took Sarah.”
Genesis
20:2. I don’t think so I think sin is common for man. How
serious is a little white lie? Look at it this way it separates
man from God and his love. So how does God feel about a sin that
little white lie; ”16
These
six things the Lord hates, Yes, seven are an abomination to Him:
17 A proud look, A lying tongue, Hands that shed innocent blood,
18 A heart that devises wicked plans, Feet that are swift in
running to evil, 19 A false witness who speaks lies,And one who
sows discord among brethren.“
Proverbs
6:16-19
NKJV. There is no little “white lie” it is all sin and God
will not abide with sin. There are no short cuts to God, the path
is truly narrow.
“Jesus
said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one
comes to the Father except through me.”
John
14:6
ESV
I’m
not educated nor am I a Theologian so if I’m mistaken in the
Feast please feel free To write mlitew8@gmail.com.
I’m
looking forward to your input. If the Lord is willing I’ll send
and post the Feast again tomorrow.
Can
you hear him? Jesus is calling, accept Jesus into your heart? If
you hear him calling it’s not too late. Just say this simple
prayer; “Dear
God, I am a sinner and need forgiveness. I believe that Jesus
Christ shed His precious
blood and
died for my sin. I am willing to turn from sin. I now invite
Christ to come into my heart and life as my personal Saviour.“
If
you said this prayer inviting Jesus into your heart, turning from
sin, and you need fellowship just as we do. We worship and
fellowship in a Church (group of believers) that strive to
measures up to God’s Word. You need a Bible believing body of
believers (church) to worship and pray with. Our salvation depends
completely on God! We are the Saints for whom Jesus sacrificed his
life to pay in full for our sin. Our only action is to repent
(turn from sin) and accept Jesus. Know this if you sinned the sin
that can’t be forgiven, you won’t hear Jesus calling. If you
have trouble finding a good bible believing church in your
neighborhood send me an email and I’ll see if I can help;
mike@admenu.com.
