As I am reading this week about King Saul, I am caught and cautioned by how much the American Church resembles him. Sometimes as I read about King Saul . . . I am embarassed by what it reveals in my life.
Do I try to Justify my short comings? Do you? The apostle Paul said in 2 Corinthians 11:14, that “the devil masquerades as an angel of light.” What does that mean? That Satan makes sin look OK. King Saul justified his sin by saying he was going to make a sacrifice to God. We justify our sin by saying . . . “Its just temporary” “If God didn’t want me to do this, then he would take away my desire.” “I have no other choices.”
Let’s stop making excuses and start obeying the WORD of God!
