DON'T MAKE EXCUSES

"WE EXCUSE OUR SLOTH UNDER THE PRETEXT OF  DIFFICULTY"  

THAT GETS A BIT CLOSE TO HOME!

Read: Haggai 2:1-9

         

CONSIDER – In what haven’t we done for the Lord because we could not, in our minds, do it perfectly?  The Lord asked Moses to speak to Israel about Pharaoh but Moses questioned the Lord’s directive because of his speech impairment. The Lord’s response was simple, "Who gave the human being their mouths? …No go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say" (Exod.4:11,12). 

So, let’s ask ourselves the obvious questions: what have we not done for the Lord because we couldn’t do it to our standards? God wants to use us for his work, but he wants us to trust him for abilities and opportunities. What are we waiting for?

          Pray  O' loving God, I need Your help to understand why I make excuses rather than obey You. Show me how to do what is right.

In Christ,
