Sin and its Effect |
Sin is indeed a reproach proverb 14:34…
when God create the
world and he said: “Let us make man in our image, according to our
likeness. They will rule (have dominion over) the fish of the sea, the birds of
the sky, the livestock, the whole earth, and the creatures that crawl g on the
earth.” Genesis 1:26 CSB.
Man lost his place
of DOMINION the day sin came in to the world in Genesis 3.
There’s one thing I know
sin to be and the devil “he’s cunning” and “sin is deceptive”. Sin looks
attractive and the devil will always open your eyes to see the good of the sin
and make it look delicious, delightful…
My mum always
says, “he (the devil) will entice you with things that will make you
see reasons to sin and when he knows that the level you have gotten to, if let
you see it even though you know you are helpless then he’ll leave you”. There’s
a saying in my Language (Igede) “opiri-piri ka-ka ro’hwue’he, ka y’ila
kporu’lang” “translate” taken you to the middle of a lone bush and set
the bush on fire round about.
There’s a story that we
were told when we were small of an animal called rabbit. Rabbit loves fried
reddish portage things a lot and so if a hunter wants to kill it, he’ll prepare
a reddish portage and keep it in the path of the rabbit, and will gun it down
as soon as it come to eat of it that is craftiness of the devil. He will entice
you with his cunningness and make you always see the reason to sin and
perpetually living therein.
devil make sin enticing,
delightful, easy - to - do, but tragically the devil will never tell you the
repercautions that follow afterwards
- · Sin makes a man cripple
- · Sin brings death Romans 6:23
- · Sin takes away the glory of God Romans 3:23
- · Sin makes a man handicap
- · Sin makes you though you have something meaningful to say yet it will be regard as anything among your brethren, community and nation at large Nehemiah 5:9 CSB …you walk in the fear of our God and not invite the reproach of our foreign enemies?
- · Sin makes a man a nonentity
- · Sin makes a man lose focus
- · Sin makes a man wallow in pain
- · Sin makes live in object poverty

How then can I return my
original place of DOMINION?
- a. Confess you sins and ask for forgiveness from both man and God Isa 1:18 psalm 51.
- b. Pursue that which is good in the sight of God
- c. Avoid the company of sinners’ psalm 1:1
- d. Soak yourself in the word of God psalm 1:2
Thank be to God almighty
who gave us a means of escape from eternal damnation through the death of the
Jesus Christ on the Cross of Calvary.
He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all,
- Romans 8:32
For at just the right time, while we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.
Romans 5:6
But God proves His love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 5:8
Salvation
corner: LORD Jesus I come before for transformation and renewing of my
mind. I want to follow and nothing can stand as a barrier on my path I denounce
evil and I proclaim the reign of Jesus in my life, delete my name from the book
of eternal death and write my name in the eternal book of life I pray in Jesus’
name.
