THE SPIRIT OF THIS AGE:DEAD IN SIN
TREASURES OF GRACE (DAILY DEVOTIONAL)
WEDNESDAY, 14TH JUNE 2017
TOPIC: THE SPIRIT OF THIS AGE:DEAD IN SIN
SCRIPTURE: And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; 2Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience - Ephesians 2:1-2
MEMORY VERSE: 1 Corinthians 5:17
DIGGING DEEP: We are in a time and age whereby people live by the concepts of the world and not by the precepts of the word of God. There are those who don't regard God, and have no fear(refference) for Him. And there are those who have outrightly sold out their conscience to the devil, so that their heart is twisted by intellectualism, modernization, and infected by satanic mindset; they have become atheists and dare to speak against God without the blink of an eye. Scripture says in Psalm 14:1 that "The fool says in his heart there is no God." In other words it is the highest height of foolishness to look at the world, look at your life and all the awesome things that is around us and say that God doesn't exist. Any life that is not rooted in Christ has no future that is to say has no life after this life .
Our text says that "And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins." Notice these:
1. Dead in sin: This speaks of a spiritual state where by one is powerless against sin. A state of lifelessness to righteousness and holiness. It is a state that one cannot respond to God again. A condition of a living corpse of sin.
And just as a corpse cannot revive itself to life, neither can an unbeliever revive his own spirit into new life. In this state it is normal to sin and not feel it, infact in this state people will defend evil and call it good. That is the reason the world is supporting gay rights, nudism, suicide bombers, and all sort of atrocities prevail everywhere today because men are dead in sin.
2. Quickened: Prior to the revelation of Jesus we were all spiritually dead. It was the unique identity of all mankind. Every person begins their life on earth in this state of spiritual deadness, and apart from the work of God to revive our spirit, this state will continue uninterrupted until our physical death.
Accepting Jesus converts you from been 'dead in sin' to been 'dead to sin' and alive unto righteousness (Romans 6:11).
Finally beloved, anyone that has no regard for God and haven't accepted Christ as Lord will die again but if you recieve Him you will live again.
I pray for you today any form of iniquity that is holding you from enjoying God's best i break it now in, recieve spiritual reawakening in Jesus' name.
PRAYER: O Lord I confess today that you are the Lord of my life in Jesus' name
O Lord, i recieve grace to stay alive unto righteousness and dead to sin in Jesus' name.
QUOTE: You are either dead in sin or dead to sin - Dr. Dabbas Joel
