We want to do our best in area of our life and in that we discover our strength and weakness. You reach your goals then you may be relaxed and be less sensitive to our spiritual life.
Be careful when all goes well. Sometime that can be the start of a disaster.
Genesis 2:7-17
7Then the Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.
8Now the Lord God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed. 9The Lord God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground—trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
10A river watering the garden flowed from Eden; from there it was separated into four headwaters. 11The name of the first is the Pishon; it winds through the entire land of Havilah, where there is gold. 12(The gold of that land is good; aromatic resin and onyx are also there.) 13 The name of the second river is the Gihon; it winds through the entire land of Cush. 14The name of the third river is the Tigris; it runs along the east side of Ashur. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.
15The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it. 16And the Lord God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; 17but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die.”
- Adam’s residence was pleasing to the eye with good fruits, living in beautiful garden
- Adam’s responsibility was to keep the garden the way GOD made it. They had no needs, it was all provided, all perfect one
- Adam’s restriction was the tree of good and evil, he must not eat
Don’t drop your guard and become less sensitive. GOD created them and placed them in the garden and gave them an opportunity to choose and to love Him enough to choose right.
- Adam’s response; they were already like GOD. They both fell and realised they are naked.
We have to live on this world on guard. Devil always has an offer absolutely oppose to what GOD has for you. Live sensitive to the Holy Spirit within us.
You have to be careful when everything is good and right. Don’t drop your guard; in the way you respond to your friends, in what you choose.
- Adam regrets; they were shamed to be in the presence of GOD, afraid of GOD, had fear of GOD. The soul that sins will die, you rip what you saw, and the wages of sin is death – eternal death. We have the Holy Spirit within us warning us, says watch.
Many people are dying inside every day. How long it took for them to lose all they had?
< Are you careful about who your friends are?
< Are you careful about what your husband brings home?
< Are you careful about reading the Word of GOD everyday?
< Are you careful about talking to Heavenly Father every day?
< Are you sensitive about your relationship to GOD every day?
< Are you tempted having watched other people appeared to have good time but you are obeying the GOD?
As followers of LORD Jesus we are filled with His Spirit, obeying to promptings of Holy Spirit, sensitive to things that are not belong to our lives. Say NO to temptation.
Obey the GOD. Trust LORD Jesus Christ as your Saviour.
