TOPIC: THERE IS SECOND CHANCE 6: Right Your Mistakes.
MEMORY VERSE:
Micah 7:8
8 Do not rejoice over me, my enemy; When I fall, I will arise; When I sit in darkness, The LORD will be a light to me.
BIBLE READING:
Gen. 28:8-9
“8 It was now very clear to Esau that his father did not like the local Canaanite women.
9 So Esau visited his uncle Ishmael’s family and married one of Ishmael’s daughters, in addition to the wives he already had. His new wife’s name was Mahalath. She was the sister of Nebaioth and the daughter of Ishmael, Abraham’s son.
Everybody makes mistakes in life. Some Mistakes are not that bad to bring destruction but some has recked many down the line. Few were very lucky to get back to their feet but many can’t even trace their down fall. This is the truth of it all, if you can trace the source of your problem and you are ready to face it, you can enjoy Second Chance.
Most times, we think that Esau loosing his blessings was the genesis of his problem but that wasn’t the case. Esau was hated by his mother because of the women he married, they were thorns in her flesh, Gen. 27:46.
When Esau realize the genesis of his problems in Gen. 28:6-8, he began to make amendment. His father’s prayer was like a curse but it was a blessing in disguise. Isaac said,
“40 By your sword you shall live, And you shall serve your brother; And It Shall Come To Pass, When You Become Restless, That You Shall Break His Yoke From Your Neck.”
Gen. 27:40
Now, after a diligent thought, I believed Esau knew the beginning of his mistake and started working on it, so, He search for a woman in the linage of Abraham, which implies, connecting to the blessings of Abraham. The next step was what his father said,
“And It Shall Come To Pass, When You Become Restless, That You Shall Break His Yoke From Your Neck.”
So he needed to go back to work, increase his commitment and that generated his second chance.
Gen. 32:6-7,
“6 Then the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, “We came to your brother Esau, and he also is coming to meet you, and four hundred men are with him.”
7 So Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed; and he divided the people that were with him, and the flocks and herds and camels, into two companies.”
What do you need to change to create that Second Chance? Do you need to stop drunkenness, flirting around, stubbornness, disobedient, laziness, mistakes to correct, apologies to be granted, forgiveness, there is always something to stop in order to create that Second Chance. It is possible you just have to search out what you need to let go and start all over again.
I pray for you today, may your eye be open to what you need to let go and let in into your life in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.
God Bless you and Good Morning.
Happy Birthday to all celebrants and Happy Wedding Anniversary to those celebrating today. May you experience God’s fruitfulness in Jesus Mighty name, Amen.
