A REPROBATE MIND.

Reprobate simply means immoral, having no religious or principled character. A reprobate mind is that which possesses the above features.
Imagine a spiritual leader or a political leader with a renowned character commits a grave offence being fully aware of the commandments of God or the constitution of the land. What immediately comes into our mind as any individual who sees the news is that "Oh, how could it be that it was such person whom everyone is looking up to or expected to be aware of the consequences of such offence becomes a victim himself" . People tend to pass several comments some might even say that "I believe he should be more knowledgeable than what he did". 
Truly, such people are actually aware that what they have done has huge consequences but they derive pleasure in doing it all because they have been given over to a reprobate mind. As a believer, we could also be in this same situation if we refuse to accept and acknowledge the knowledge of God in our lives. The structure of everything one earth is of no doubt already that there is a supreme being i.e God up there, who oversees the affairs of the entire universe, humans on earth is also an indisputable evidence ( Romans 1:20). So when we fail to glorify God in our doings, claim to be wiser than our creator and ultimately not retaining God in our knowledge, we might have no choice than to be given over to a reprobate mind (Romans 1:28) and we begin to embrace every form of ungodliness such that we begin to see it as no big deal (Romans 1:29-30).
In conclusion, reprobacy is a very deadly act as it widens the gap between us and the Father, giving room for the devil and his cohorts to haunt and misdirect one's deed. The lasting solution to this is to always acknowledge God in our doings, Pray fervently and follow his commandments because the end is near.


PRAYER POINTS: Eternal Father, I come to you with all lowliness, is there any where I have been given over to a reprobate mind purchase me back and redeem me to your side. Amen

FUEL IT UP!!!

 When I was in primary school I was part of the girls guide. we usually go for weekend camping in any agreed location and I remember that whenever we were at camp, we always have the camp fire at night and everyone will be dancing around it. Whenever the fire goes down, we will put leaves and some other petrochemical substances to enable it burn well. Going through the books of Mathew 25, the story of the 10 virgins ignited a spark in me and I realized instantly that to keep anything burning, we need substances to fuel it up just as we did at the camp whenever the camp fire goes down. Also, most of us have generators in our various homes and I can imagine how much we would feel helpless when we cannot get fuel to power our generators especially when we have a very interesting show coming up or a football match and the electricity distribution company decided to keep the light off. Brethren, reading through Mathew 25: 1-13, we would have a better understanding of what it means to fu...

God's Laws Versus God's Promise

A father who lives in the diaspora once had a son and for some reasons his son cannot come along with him. Nevertheless, he kept on investing and was lucrative in his business. This man got a guardian to keep his son in track while he was away and he wrote his will so that when he is away permanently his possession could be given to his child by the guardian on reaching a specified age written in his will. He did this so that the child could be rightly led and could have come of age not to mismanage the properties. Going through the books of Galatians, I had a deeper understanding of God's laws and God's promises. Firstly, we have sins, laws and promises. Literally, Sin is anything detestable to God, God's laws are the guidance from God given alongside the promise to reveal to people their sins (Gal 3:19). God's law was given until the fulfilment of the promise. God's promise is simply grace in the human form of Christ Jesus. Going back to my introductory story, the...

UNDER THE SUN!

  A whole lot goes down under the sun,when I say under the sun i am referring to the whole earth as a whole. Imagine a  child is born into the world, coming out of the mother's womb empty and naked, after the child's birth he is weaned and goes through several stages before he finally starts his education, from primary to secondary and to higher institution he could even go to the length of taking professional exams and pursuing his career to the peak. After this his parents tells him to bring home a wife, he gets married start having kids and making his kids follow the same process as he has been brought up,when he grows old he dies and maybe wills his property to his children and he without no doubt knows what happens again after his demise as he will be buried empty not even with the certificates and qualifications he has attained. What a life!       This above example is typical of a successful human, several generation comes and goes. we all have fore fath...
