"What then is this bleating of the sheep in my ears?" 1 Sam 15:14
Have you ever tried to justify a sin by citing "spiritual" reasons? That was Saul's tactic. He had been commanded to kill all the Amalekites and all their flocks, but in disobedience Saul saved a few of the best of each. When questioned by Samuel, he insisted that he had disobeyed with the best of motives-"to sacrifice to the Lord." How do we today often seek to evade the clarity of the Great Commission? By citing family obligations? personal ambitions? the absence of a "call"?
Pray: Dear Lord, You have been so good to us. Forgive our rationalizations for not obeying You fully, and lead us into service to unreached peoples.Source: www.global-prayer-digest.org� GO HERE everyday!!
