Memory Verse: Micah 7:8
“8 Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord shall be a light unto me.”
Bible Reading: Daniel 11:32-35
“32 Those who do wickedly against the covenant he shall corrupt with flattery; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits.
33 And those of the people who understand shall instruct many; yet for many days they shall fall by sword and flame, by captivity and plundering.
34 Now when they fall, they shall be aided with a little help; but many shall join with them by intrigue.
35 And some of those of understanding shall fall, to refine them, purify them, and make them white, until the time of the end; because it is still for the appointed time.”
Every children experience the process of falling and rising while growing up (and trying to walk). They are confident they can stand but find themselves on the floor either. They want to run like others but their bone are not strong yet, so they fall along the way. Now to Adult, no grown up man want to fall on the road, no one desire to slip off while walking in the rain or within your sitting room but one thing or the other led to the fall. Likewise, no Christian, running the race of faith, desire to miss their steps. None want to fall into temptation but it does happen. Stop blaming yourself for it, just get up and move on.
The bible said,
“33 And those of the people who understand shall instruct many; yet for many days they shall fall by sword and flame, by captivity and plundering.”
No matter how strong you are, many are working towards bringing you down. Someone else’s goal is to make sure you fall Into temptation and slide backward in the race of life, Yes, if they had their way, but that’s not the end, you need to Get up and Move over again. One headache of the devil is you finding ways to rise when you fall. If those who know their God, who are doing exploit and instructing others in faith does fall, how happy will the devil be? But he will be angry the more when they rise up from their falling.
I don’t know who is giving up on rising? I don’t know that righteous man that has become the laughing stock of others and weary of standing again? Hear me today, Get Up and Move On. Falling is not a crime remaining there is the problem. Don’t be discourage by the occurrences, Get Up and Move On. You can meet up again, don’t quit. The Lord will strengthen you in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.
