Don't Slip!


The first sign of the deterioration, decline and self-destruction that signals disobedience is a loss of one’s intimate relationship with the Lord. 

Regardless of how strong you think your walk with God might be, anyone may slip by not paying sufficient attention to God’s word daily. A wholehearted devotion to God is necessary, and we cannot divide our loyalties between God and other things. Look at Jeremiah 23:11-12. Even people who consider themselves church leaders can get off track.

“Both prophet and priest are godless; even in my temple I find their wickedness,” declares the Lord. “Therefore their path will become slippery; they will be banished to darkness and there they will fall. I will bring disaster on them in the year they are punished,” declares the Lord.

Be warned - stay off those slippery slopes! Amen?
