Abomination

By Adeshola Abraham 

Proverbs 15:9 The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the LORD: but he loveth him that followeth after righteousness.

Is your lifestyle an abomination to God? Or does He love you and your righteous living? You can see the two kinds of men and your daily choices determine which one you are. If God hates your life, you are in trouble. If He loves you, then you are greatly favored. 

God liked David and what a difference that made in his life (1Chr28:4; Ps18:19-26).
When God loves a person, a boy sold into slavery can take the nation's throne, or an orphan girl can become queen or a captive can become the king's chief advisor. Think Joseph, Esther & Daniel.

Most people say "God hates the sin but loves the sinner." But it is not from the Bible! God hates the way of the wicked and God loves the man pursuing righteousness. By comparing "the way of the wicked" with "him that followeth after righteousness," you can learn that God hates both the sinner and his lifestyle and loves both the righteous man and his lifestyle. Note the change from sin to sinner in Solomon's list of 7 things God hates (Pr6:16-19).

In our world today, people come up with perverse thinking. Sodomy is no longer an abomination to the Lord; it is same sex! Adultery is no longer an abomination to the Lord; it is a love affair! Rebellious children are no longer an abomination to the Lord; they are hyperactive! But wise men accept all of God's precepts and hate every contrary opinion (Ps119:97-104, 113,128).

Receive the will power to present your body a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto God. May you and your way of life gladden God's heart now and evermore in Jesus name. Amen

Good Morning and pleasant weekend.
