Daily Devotional by pastor ALice Adelayo.

Topic: TRAGIC CONSEQUENCES OF REJECTING GOD.

*Scripture Reading.*

Judges 2:11-15 (KJV)  *And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim:*

*And they forsook the LORD God of their fathers, which brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the people that were round about them, and bowed themselves unto them, and provoked the LORD to anger.*

*And they forsook the LORD, and served Baal and Ashtaroth.*

*And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and he delivered them into the hands of spoilers that spoiled them, and he sold them into the hands of their enemies round about, so that they could not any longer stand before their enemies.*

*Whithersoever they went out, the hand of the LORD was against them for evil, as the LORD had said, and as the LORD had sworn unto them: and they were greatly distressed.*

*Christianity of today have turned out to be another thing entirely in the body of Christ and very  unfortunately some ministers fail from telling their flocks the truth simply because they don't want to lose the membership of their congregation.*

 *Lukewarmness in the life of some Christians has hindered many people from serving the Lord.*

*Many people have used their lives to hinder the salvation of others.such people will be judged by God except they repent genuinely.*

*To live hypocritically  is dangerous to your life and destiny.*

*To taste the world, dressing like unbelievers whereby people hardly differentiate you from unbelievers is a dangerous life you're living.*

 *Unwholesome talk ought not to come out of the mouth of a believer.*

*Have you found yourself in the midst of unbelievers and watch out how some unhealthy talk come out of their mouth? This doesn't show that you are a child of God.*

2 Peter 2:2-6 (KJV)  *And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.*

*And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.*

*For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment;*

*And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;*

*And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly;*

*Have you turned from following God?*To exibit the youthful lust despite the warning from the Lord is disastrous.*

*What has become an idol in your life? Is it self, your career, your spouse, money,in pursue of business,sex drugs or what?* *What has replaced God in your devotion and time?*

Rejection is painful to God  just as it is painful to a man or woman rejected.

*When God is rejected sorrow and anguish are the consequences.*

*When God is rejected,you can not stand before your enemies and defeat is  inevitable.*

The children of Israel turned after other gods after the death of the Joshua generation and they paid dearly for it.

*If you can deceived yourself, know for sure that you can't deceived Satan.*

*God is merciful,you can turn to him in genuine repentance and He will have mercy on you and restore you.*

PRAYER POINT

*Father, please help me to wholeheartedly and diligently walk in your ways and in the fear of the Lord all the days of my life in Jesus name.*

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

*May you not stray from following the Lord all the days of your life! I cancel everything the enemy has put in place to cause you to backslide! You will prevail over all your enemies in Jesus name!*
