*WISDOM NUGGETS :-GOD'S REGRET*
Scriptures:
1. The LORD regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled. Gen 6:6NIV
2. “I regret that I have made Saul king, because he has turned away from me and has not carried out my instructions.” Samuel was angry, and he cried out to the LORD all that night. 1 Sam 15:11

A. Don't come to the place where God will regret promoting/blessing you, because it's possible.
i. In the kingdom we never arrive, we only make progress. So don't allow foretaste glory deny you of your next glory in life. For we move from glory to glory (2 Cor 3:18KJV)
B. Obedience is better than sacrifice(1 Sam 15:22 KJV). Note that sacrifice is a byproduct of obedience i.e your Sacrifice thrives on your obedience. Before Jesus became a sacrifice(being hanged on the cross), he had to learn the art of obedience. (Heb 5:8NIV). "Delayed obedience is disobedience". Obedience is a school in the spirit. Many are not moving in life because of disobedience to parents, nature and the things of God etc.
C. Don't take the blessings of God for granted. He blesses us not for ourselves/immediate family but for the kingdom of God( Ex 12:35 NIV). Don't cause financial loss to the kingdom because you will give an account one day. Never think it is your strength because he gave you the power to make it. It's mine etc are words to satisfy the flesh and our ego. (The earth is the LORD’s, and everything in it. The world and all its people belong to him. Ps 24:1 NLT)
