Scripture:
“The man said, “The woman whom you gave me, she gave me some fruit from the tree and I ate it.””Genesis 3:12 NET
Observation:
When God confronted Adam about his sin, he blamed the woman God had given him. Ever since that day, we humans have been known for making excuses for our disobedience. The decisions we make have dire consequences and we must take them seriously. Adam’s sin is still affecting the entire human race.
Application:
Our decisions affect those who are coming after us. When we make decision, they not only affect us, but our children and their children. We must take this into consideration when we want to do our own thing or disobey the voice of the Lord. We must not only think of ourselves, but think how my choices will impact those who are coming after me. Decisions have consequences and we must think them through before we flippantly make them.
Prayer:
Father, decisions determine destiny. Help me to make right decisions that will make a greater impact for You and Your kingdom. Help me to think through each decision I make so they are not selfish or self-centered. Help me do what is right above what is convenient. Teach me to walk in accordance with Your will all the days of my life. I want to walk in Your blessing and I want those who come after me to be blessed.
Yours,
Jeff
