DCLM Daily Manna 17th December 2019 – Refuge Of Lies, written by Pastor W. F. Kumuyi
TOPIC: Refuge Of Lies
TEXT: Isaiah 28:9-21
KEY VERSE: “Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves” – (Isaiah 28:15).
MESSAGE: DCLM Daily Manna 17th December 2019
A Russian leader, Joseph Stalin, gathered members of his ruling party and demonstrated before them how human beings could be reduced to bare body and thereafter ruled without resistance using a live chicken. Addressing his audience, he plucked the chicken’s feathers and the poor bird in pain cried each time its feathers were removed until the creature was featherless.
He dropped the bird and fed it crumbs of chicken feed while he headed to his seat. The poor chicken followed him to his seat where more feeds were dropped for it. Stalin turned and told his men, “This is how to deal with men if you want them to obey you”.
It is unimaginable the way the human mind thinks outside divine control. Our text reveals a group of forgers of lies, deceitful men who would rather face judgment than repent, return and secure reconciliation and peace with their Maker.
Today: DCLM Daily Manna 17th December 2019 by Pastor W. F. Kumuyi
Some folks are like these scorners who made lies their refuge and falsehood their hiding place. They have become deceived by the many lies that modern-day philosophies and false teachers and prophets teach; who try to deny the reality of eternal punishment in hell. Others have their hearts hardened by the pleasures, fake peace and security their present wealth and position provide them. But whether they choose to believe in the truth or not, the truth of God’s word on eternal judgment remains unchanging.
The believers, therefore, must be conscious of this. Don’t allow the false sense of security of the ungodly move you to leave your eternal place of safety.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Only in the truth is genuine security.
DAILY BIBLE READING: Zephaniah 1-3
