REMEMBER HER PRIVILEGES

Posted on

“But Lot’s wife looked back, and she became a pillar of salt.”         Genesis 19:26 NIV

 

Lot’s wife was privileged to be married into the only family on the earth that was serving the one true God. She had seen the clear faith of Abraham. She had witnessed his dedication to the Lord. She had seen his altars and his worship. She had seen him operate in the power of the Lord and deliver her husband from sure death in Genesis 14. She was privileged to be associated with one of the greatest godly men who ever walked this planet! She saw the cloudy faith of her husband. He traded his tent for a townhouse! Because of her relationship with Lot and Abraham, she learned a few things about the Lord. She certainly knew who the Lord was and how one approaches Him. She had learned this from her husband and his uncle. Yet, she never followed through with it. The Lord had even graced her by sending angels to warn her and her family of the impending doom. Still, she refused to flee from the wrath of the Lord. She was privileged in her responsibility. She knew the facts and was given every opportunity to act upon them. She was given the chance to change, the chance to believe, the chance to be saved. Yet, she squandered those chances. The privilege of conviction is this: When the Lord calls, it isn’t to harm us, but it is to remind us that He loves us and wants to save us by His grace and give us life and life in all its fullness through His Son, Jesus Christ our Saviour and Lord!

 

PRAYER THOUGHT

Lord, thank You for the privilege of conviction to experience Your grace.

 

PRAYER FOR TODAY

Lord, thank You for the privilege of Your conviction in our lives, so that we will experience and know the reality of Your saving grace in Your Son Jesus Christ through the power and ministry of Your Holy Spirit. AMEN
