My Month Of Consecration! Ps119:10

We must know that God is our father and we must be his imitators.
If we serve God, we must be models of our Lord.
When we remember Lot, Abraham’s nephew, we ask ourselves the questions.
Abraham is the father of faith,
of absolute trust in the Father,
He obeyed the Lord with his eyes closed, but we wonder how Lot, who had been brought up by Abraham, was the complete opposite of his uncle.
Lot is selfish, he doesn’t know the birthright, all that’s important to him is his own interests.
Lot is conceited; he thinks he’s the one with the blessing, so he can afford to take decisions.
Lot, a man who had grown up in spiritual ways, ended up in Sodom and Gomorrah, where he settled.
The Bible tells us that the depravity of these cities was out of all proportion and reached the Lord.
Sexual pleasures, incest, everything that is dirty on this earth was the prerogative of these places but what surprises us is that it didn’t bother anyone.
Lot and his family are at ease in this unhealthy environment, they like it there and have no intention of relocating.
We’re talking about people who are supposed to know God,
we’re talking about people who know spiritual principles.
They were aware that being in any environment can affect our thinking and destroy it.
They knew that covenants of the mind were possible, but they thought that they could evangelise and bring their environment to repentance.
But the Bible tells us that one day Lot’s eldest daughter wondered how she would bear a child and their father was getting old.
The customs of the place where they lived had their laws, and you had to respect them if you wanted to be honoured.
The other remark we can make is that Lot, who is supposed to be a Christian, was a drunkard, that was his weakness and his daughters took advantage of it to satisfy their needs.
And those who claimed to know and serve God ended up in incest, caught up in the influences of their place of dwelling.
All this to tell us that the Lord knows our destinies,
he is more than fifty years ahead of us.
The Lord has warned us and he continues to warn us.
Let’s be careful,
we are children of light,
We are in the world, but we are not of the world.
Let’s not let Egypt rob us of our glory.
Here is today’s instruction:
Pray for your mentality to be divinely transformed.
Romans, 12:2 – Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
To be conformed is to espouse existing standards and practices.
To transform is to change form or nature.
Paul asks us not to copy the model of mediocrity, covetousness, vileness, impurity and failure that comes from the systems of thought and beliefs that exist around us.
Let us go beyond this model, by allowing our thoughts to be renewed by the mind of Christ.
If we have been limited by the stereotypes inculcated in us from childhood, God is saying through Paul to break out of this mould and return to the original model.
We are not of this world,
We are citizens of the kingdom of God, created in the image of God.
Let’s be careful when we draw up our plans,
Let’s make sure that these plans do not rest on the ephemeral foundations of this world.
Let us not fall into the traps of those who walk according to the lusts of the flesh and have their minds focused on earthly desires.
The work of the Holy Spirit is first to open up our understanding.
Let’s just surrender ourselves to God and he will bring about a spiritual renewal in us.
Good day to you all
Good day to you all
