Sin Fought

Sin Fought – Fifty Nine

     In Genesis 4, there is a story about Cain and Abel.  Cain and Abel brought their offerings to the Lord.  Cain brought the fruit of the land and Abel brought an animal sacrifice.  Abel`s sacrifice was accepted and Cain`s was not.  Both knew what was required but only one brought the right one.  Cain is like many people today.  They know what is required but they think they know best.  God is not looking for you second rates, He wants your best.  Have you given all that you have to the Lord.?  Remember it says in Matt 6:33, that when we seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness then all things will be added unto us. 

     Now Cain was downcast and unhappy with God.  The Lord asked him why he was like that.  Also the Lord said that sin was standing at the door of his heart and it wanted to master him.  God also said that Cain could master sin.  As we are well aware Cain submitted to sin and passed this on to his children.  It is still be passed on today. 

     Praise God thought through Jesus Christ the power of sin, hell and the grave have been defeated.  You do not have to be subject to sin any more.  Jesus Christ has set us free and as it says in John 8:32, who the Son sets free, is free indeed.  You have a choice today to be free or sin.  Both have eternal consequences.  I trust you will choose the Lord.
