Text: 1 Corinthians 10:12
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
If you were with God and suddenly realize that you are far from Him, who moved? You or God? He is ever faithful and he has promised to neither leave nor forsake you. Hebrews 13:5.
We live in a world in which things constantly change where relationships are unstable and people often depart whether in family, friendship or death. It is very comforting to know that the Almighty has promised neither to leave nor forsake those who abide in Him.
However, many people get easily carried away by the roaring tides of the sea of life. They get drifted from the Lord through worries, anxieties and worldly pursuits of what to eat, where to live and what to wear.
The same person who started well with the Lord now finds himself far from him. Most times it happens gradually and might even be unnoticeable initially. With a little compromise here and there, before long, the dog has returned back to its vomit. “Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall” 1 Corinthians 10:12
If you find that there is a distance between you and the Lord, quickly retrace your steps and come back home. He is waiting for you with wide stretched arms of love. Don’t postpone it till tomorrow because it may never come.
Prayer Nugget: Father, I retrace my steps back to you in every area I have strayed away in Jesus name.
