DON'T LOOK BACK
Upon reading our bibles, we come across one of the shortest verses , Luke 17:32, which says, " REMEMBER LOT'S WIFE!"
And the question now is, what is it that we must remember about Lot's wife? That then takes us to Genesis 19:1- 29.
Before the Lord God Almighty could destroy the city of S***m and Gomorrah by raining down burning sulfur, the angel of the Lord said to Lot together with his wife, " Flee for your lives!, DON'T LOOK BACK, and don't stop anywhere in the plain! Flee to the mountains or you will be swept away!".
Despite being instructed not to look back, we now see Lot's wife looking back, and she became a pillar of salt.
My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, remember Lot's wife, DON'T LOOK BACK.
We have taken such a good decision by accepting Jesus Christ of Nazareth as our personal Lord and Savior, now let us forget what is behind and strain towards what is ahead, pressing on towards the goal to win the prize for which God has called us heavenward in Christ Jesus( Phillipians 3: 13-14). ". Let us forget the former things and move forward lest we are swept away.
Remember that," No one who puts a hand to the plow and LOOKS BACK is fit for service in the Kingdom of God"( Luke 9: 57-62). Let us therefore not look back. Yes, i know very well that there are many reasons that entice you to look back, but i plead with you today never to look back. Let us not look back at the world and whatever it offers, let us move forward.
It is those who finish the race well who wins the prize,i mean who shall inherit the kingdom of God. As such, let us continue pressing on, moving forward on our journey of Christianity and not looking back.
Let us move forward by obeying whatever God instructs us to do. By so doing we shall inherit that which the Lord our God has prepared for us.
Emmanuel!!
God of the Universe, who is the God of Prophet Cedric is with us.
