Suicide

Happy Sunday!

Bob Yandian shared this message. "And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart." Galatians 6:9: (NKJV)

Saul committed suicide. First Samuel 28:5 tells us he was afraid of the Philistines and was greatly trembling at their advance on Israel. Other scriptures tell us he was small in his own eyes, feared the people, was jealous of those who seemed better than him, and easily threatened by the greatness of others. This describes so many people today, including Christians. You may think of yourself in those ways, but God does not. God made your spirit man and your body. 

Genesis tells us both were made in the image of God.  "God: Now let Us conceive a new creation—humanity—made in Our image, fashioned according to Our likeness. And let Us grant them authority over all the earth—the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, the domesticated animals and the small creeping creatures on the earth." Genesis 1:26 (Voice) 

You may not like the way you look, but God made you and He does not make junk. If you get your eyes on yourself or see yourself continually through your own eyes, you will get depressed and allow an open door for Satan to influence. The Word says, "There’s far more here than meets the eye. The things we see now are here today, gone tomorrow. But the things we can’t see now will last forever." 2 Corinthians 4:18 (Message)  Satan will tell you that life is not worth living and the world is bigger than you.  Suicide says “God is not doing a good job, I will take over.”  Don't listen to the devil!  He only tells lies! John 8:44 says, "He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it." (King James Version)

God has a plan for your life and it is good and not bad and God has an expected end for your life (Jeremiah 29:11). He made you to fulfill His great work on the earth (Ephesians 2:10). Don't cut God's plan off. In due season you will reap if you do not faint.
