A
reminder for today
Then
David confessed to Nathan, "I have sinned against the LORD." Nathan
replied, "Yes, but the LORD has forgiven you, and you won't die for this
sin. (2 Samuel 12:13)
David did a terrible thing by taking Uriah’s wife and
ordering Joab, the commander of his army, to place Uriah at the area where the
battle was the fiercest. Uriah died and David married his wife. This made God
very angry at David.
David is such an awesome example of a pure heart for God,
yet he too slipped and fell under the deception of the enemy. The enemy saw a
weakness that they could exploit in David and used it to try and bring him
down. Unfortunately David’s love for God was greater than his own weakness and
his repentance brought forgiveness.
My dear friend, the enemy is constantly seeking your
downfall and will do anything to destroy you. Do not let a mistake on your side
bring separation between you and God, but instead let a mistake bring you
closer and make you seek God more intensely. A humble repenting heart is more valuable
than a stubborn grief stricken one.
Come and let us seek God’s forgiveness for our mistakes
and try harder to withstand the enemy’s deceptions. You are way too valuable to
loose, because of a mistake you made. I pray that the Lord will strengthen you
against the enemy and protect you from its claws.
Have and awesome day dear friend of Jesus
