"Hello, I'd like to introduce you to my Father and his, well my stepmother... but not really, they aren't married, she is his girl friend but they live together ... sooo, I guess you can call them married??? Right???Can I say she is my step mother???" "My real mother, divorsed my father because they both had affairs and they thought it would be best for me if they didn't fight .....blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah
Daniel 9:8 - O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against Thee.
1 Corinthians 14:33 - For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.
James 3:16 - For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
Jeremiah 3:25 - We lie down in our shame, and our confusion covereth us: for we have sinned against the LORD our God, we and our fathers, from our youth even unto this day, and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD our God.
NO BIG Story ...NO BIG Song and Dance ... LISTEN!!!
We seem to never think of it this way ....but we have all heard it .....bottom line; when we choose to do anything that GOD says DON'T....We sin (first and foremost) against Him, and until we see this ... true repentance and confession never happen. When will we realize that Sins are not just isolated bad decisions or wrong choices BUT that our SIN is in direct disobedience to God Himself.... Get it and there is a new start ahead, miss it and continue in confusion ...watch confusion multiply, watch confusion spead like an airborne virus.
Family, friends, children and strangers around you will begin the lose their balance and fall into confusion also...while they begin to make excuses for you and then excuses for their sin also.
We can be free from confusion ... by following the next simple instructions:
It has to start somewhere with someone so why not you?
"If we confess our sin, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sin and cleanse us from all unrighteousness" I John 1:9
"There has no temptation taken you but such as is common to man, but God is faithful, He will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able, but will with the temptation make a way to excape that ye may be able to bear it." I Cor. 10:13
"And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ". Col. 3:23-24
Spare those you love the confusion you cause by sinning against God.....OBEY RIGHT AWAY!
