I thank God for the scripture that corrects, reproves, and speaks to my heart..
I am going to confess my faults to testify for God.
I do a daily chlorine test on our water for my job. There were some days that I had missed. I was expecting a small inspection, nothing major, but I knew I was going to be embarrassed on my oversight. ( I hate to make mistakes)
I was thinking and talking to the Lord about "filling in the blanks" I even asked the Lord if I could just do it this time, I would not miss another one..
Knowing full well it would be a lie, I KNOW what happens to a liar, and I am not one. ( but was thinking about it)
Anyway, I struggled with this most of the night, then I felt impressed to get out of bed, and go to my living room. I
knew the Lord was gonna speak to me in his word. I stared at my bible for a while still talking to the Lord, putting off what I knew was coming.
I opened the word, looked down, my eyes fell to the 5th chapter of Acts. I only had to read the first scripture ......
Act 5:1 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,
.....to know what the Lord was telling me. I felt a peace and had the strength to resist what I was thinking about doing....
I never want to be so hard that I can ignore the word of God, Or to justify my sin.
Sorry for getting off topic, but mentioning Ananias caused it!!
