BIBLE READING: Romans 6:12-23 (KJV)
12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.
13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.
14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.
16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
17 But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.
18 Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.
19 I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.
20 For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.
21 What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
MESSAGE:
When a fellow sins, it means that he or she is doing things that are against God’s commandments. It is unfortunate that nowadays, sin is celebrated above the fear of God. These days, many people twist sin and give it different names. Many young people justify sin under the guise of smartness; they see lying and cheating as being smart. Some justify their rudeness as self-confidence and immorality as compatibility check.
Beloved, it does not matter the name sin is called; its wages is still death, as we see in today’s memory verse. The word of God cannot be changed; sinners will end up in the lake of fire (Revelation 21:8). Sin is too risky to be toyed with; it can open up a fellow to sicknesses and diseases. Also, sinners are prone to danger, trouble, and death.
My dear child, I want you to know that God is not interested in the death of any sinner (Ezekiel 18:23). He sacrificed His only Son, Jesus, to die for the sins of the whole world. Therefore, if you have not accepted Jesus as your Lord and Saviour, I want you to do so today. He is at the door of your heart, knocking. Open up to Him, accept His love, and never return to sin.
ACTION POINT:
If you have yet to surrender your life to Jesus Christ, please do so now and forsake your sins completely.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
Mark 13:1-13, Deuteronomy 11-13
HYMN 71: AT THE CROSS
1 O Jesus, Lord, thy dying love
Hath pierced my contrite heart;
Now take my life, and let me prove
How dear to me thou art.
Refrain:
At the cross, at the cross, where I first saw the light,
And the burden of my heart roll’d away,
It was there by faith I receiv’d my sight,
And now I am happy night and day.
2 Amid the night of sin and death
Thy light hath filled my soul;
To me Thy loving voice now saith,
Thy faith hath made thee whole.
3 I kiss Thy feet, I clasp Thy hand,
I touch Thy bleeding side;
O let me here forever stand,
Where thou wast crucified.
4 My Lord, my light, my strength, my all,
I count my gain but loss;
Forever let Thy love enthrall,
And keep me at the cross.
