SPENDING LAST GRACE?

Memorise: "What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? " (Romans 6:1)

Read: Romans 6:1-2

"But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons" (Heb 12:8).

There is a pit of error many are falling into without realizing it. When you claim to be a child of God yet commit sin but do not get disciplined, and you are beginning to think that God is overlooking your sin, you are in error! You have descended from sonship into bastardhood. Samson fell into that pit. In Judges 16:1-3, Samson went to commit fornication with an harlot, yet on rising, the anointing was still there to uproot the enemy's gate and carry it to a hill. Some people are doing all sorts of abominable things today and it seems like they are getting away with it. Some are stealing and cheating and still performing miracles. In fact, some have turned the vestry into a brothel. They don't need to go out; they turn some female counselees into prostitutes and from there mount the podium to preach. Yet, it appears the anointing is still flowing like Samson, they continue in their descent into the pit of sin until they exhaust God's grace. If you continue in sin and you are not being disciplined, you are facing the most dangerous scenario of your life. There are some men who will divorce their wives and remarry someone else, yet things appear better for them
.

An usher of several years standing had a running battle with his wife. The situation became complicated because he could not realize certain expectations from the marriage, including having a child. Besides, he kept listening to the advice of bad friends who were either fellow believers or family members and he finally divorced her. Later, he remarried and appeared to have the peace he never had with his original wife. He appeared to prosper. To avoid correction, he moved church. Anyone who wanted to tell him of his error became an enemy. His heart was set on destruction. Any appearance of peace, happiness or progress you obtain from sin is ephemeral and will ultimately culminate in a fall you will not recover from. Grace ends for the one who continue in sin. Some people are spending the last remnants of grace before they go beyond redemption. If you are in such a situation, immediately return to God in humility, fasting and prayer. Break off from that sin. Make necessary restitution and face Heaven.



When a working electric fan is turned off, it appears to still be working. However, because its power source is disconnected, its speed will gradually reduce until it finally stops. Don't be that fan!
