Our Daily Manna Devotional 6 September 2023 TOPIC: THIS PASTOR DID NOT LAST LONG IN MINISTRY!

BASIC SCRIPTURES: 1 CORINTHIANS 9:16-27

As a young believer 47 years ago, I once heard a man of God say: “Anything you cannot deal with will deal with you!”

That is very right! Moreover, we dwell in a body that is not yet glorified, with all its weaknesses and its tendencies to follow after the dictates of this world.

Nevertheless, our bodies must be brought under subjection to conform to the Word or else we risk before it gets out of hand.

the chance of losing both this body and our souls.

Anything your body craves or lusts after which is not in conformity with the scriptures must be handled now, You must deal with that sin – a wrong relationship, a lying habit, a garrulous tongue, unforgiveness, dubious business deals, etc, that could spell your doom.

I learnt of a pastor who did not last long in ministry because he could not handle his appetite, inordinate love for money and hatred towards other ministers!

Wow! Don’t kill yourself before your time! Better days lie ahead of you. Deal with that sin/weakness/ habit now before it deals with you. PLAYING WITH SIN IS TOYING WITH JUDGMENT!
