Topic: Are You A Fraudster? [Monday 25, September 2017]
Memorise: “Lying lips are abomination to the LORD: but they that deal truly are his delight.” - Proverbs 12:22
Read: Revelation 21:8
8. But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Bible In One Year: Nahum 1-3. Hymn: Sing Hymn 4 - Take My Life And Let It Be
MESSAGE:
A fraudster is a dishonest person. Someone with a habit to tell lies, cheat or steal. Dishonesty is contrary to the will and nature of God, and so should not be found among children of God. The Bible teaches that any prosperity obtained from deceit, fraud and lies will be short lived. Proverbs 23:5 describes this as an exercise in futility. Initially, it will appear as an increase, but later it will leave you miserable. Some believers exploit fellow believers. This is a great evil because any wrong you do to your brother or sister in Christ is done to the Lord.
Some people deliberately sell inferior goods like phones, tablets, laptops e.t.c. Some borrow money or items without the intention of returning them. This is fraud! Remember Ananias and Sapphira lied about the offering they gave and never survived it! Neither will anyone who follows their evil path. Are you fraudulent, dishonest, or crafty? Be warned, the end result could be highly disappointing.
Prayer Point: Father, please destroy every seed of dishonesty and fraud in my life in Jesus' Name.
