These Chapters we read in Genesis
have shown us how man disobeyed God’s commandment by having wrong company at
the time. No wonder the Bible tells us to flee from the devil, maybe mankind would
have been better for it, if Eve had refused to hold talks with the devil. You
can see how sin multiplies faster if not put under control by the help of the
Holy Spirit, in these passages of the Bible, one sin led to another and to
another, until Cain killed his brother, Abel.
But, thank God for these
consoling words in Psalms 2, particularly, verse 12, which says, blessed are
all those who seek refuge and put their trust in God. When we take our bearing
from God, each day of our lives, we will never have to scamper for help from
just anyone including the devil’ suggestions, no matter how huge the challenge
might seem to us, Amen.
And here, the Holy Book of
Matthew Chapter 2 further strengthened our hope in God by telling us how that
Jesus was given birth to, thereby fulfilling all that was written in this
regard concerning Him in the Old Testament, Alleluia. It also reassured us that
our Saviour Jesus Christ actually came and is ever ready to save us from our
sins whenever we open up to Him for forgiveness of our sins
PRAYER OF SALVATION:
If you believe what the above passages have taught us, say this prayer
sincerely from your heart;
LORD JESUS CHRIST; I call on you to forgive me all my sins. I know in
several ways and occasions I have left your commandments to doing otherwise.
Please, my Darling Jesus Christ, forgive me, I promise to be conversing with
you and you alone from henceforth, so help me God, Amen.
