RAISING A “YES , YES” AND “NO, NO” GENERATION, NO. 6 TRUTH AND INTEGRITY WILL PRESERVE US IN THESE EVIL TIMES
Psalm 25:21: “Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.”
Romans 8:31-34: “What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect?
Who is he that condemneth?”
Men, when God is with us, who dare lift his finger against us? However, when an individual or nation rebels against God, He can eventually turn to become their enemy.
Isaiah 63:10 says: “But they rebelled, and vexed his holy Spirit: therefore he was turned to be their enemy, and he fought against them.”
1 Samuel 12:15 states: “But if ye will not obey the voice of the LORD, but rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then shall the hand of the LORD be against you, as it was against your fathers.”
I believe we are living in a time when God’s amazing grace towards this nation is being abused, taken for granted, misunderstood, and treated with disdain. To those who have never known Him, He is patient and longsuffering, not willing that any should perish. But to those who claim they know Him, and yet think they can do despite to His grace by continuing to live in sin without repenting, may be shocked to find that God is no longer for them, but against them.
When we forsake truth, we forsake God, When we forsake integrity, how can the God of integrity preserve us? Our nation has largely forsaken both truth and integrity. No wonder we as a nation are falling so fast.
Men, it is imperative that we educate our children in truth and integrity for it is for the preservation of their souls.
Be encouraged.
