THE SIN OF MAN

4/13/2020

Picture
Sin is the name
that God gives to the curse
spoken by him
when man traversed.
It started when Adam
and Eve ate of the tree,
when they went against God
and came to know good and evil.
The lust of their hearts
gave birth to their sin,
and when that happened
their eyes opened and evil came in.
They looked at each other,
standing naked and afraid;
they hid behind fig leaves
and became subject to shame.
When Father God came
to walk with them,
they could not be found
because they hid from him.
Father yelled to Adam,
“Where are you?”
Adam cringed and responded,
“We are naked,
so we hid ourselves from you.”
Then Father said,
“Who told you that?”
“Have you done what I told you
not to?"
“Did you eat the fruit from the Good and Evil tree?”
“Oh my love, what did you do?”
This is how the fall of man began,
from the lust of the hearts
of woman and man.
The curse was never intended
for us to live in sin,
the curse is about
our separation from him.
God has always allowed
the will of man,
It’s why the two trees
were able to stand.
The Tree of Good and Evil,
and the Tree of Life,
was placed in the garden
to know the heart of the wife.
Love is not achieved
by power and control,
love comes from intimacy,
and hearts made whole.
It was not the serpent
that caused us to sin,
it was the desire of our heart
that allowed his deception in.
To be like God and know everything,
was Adam and Eve’s heart from within.
Their love was tainted
because they wanted to stray;
they were adulterous
from that very day.
There are six things
that the Lord does hate,
seven that are
an abomination to him:
haughty eyes,
a lying tongue,
and hands that shed innocent blood,
a heart that devises wicked plans,
feet that make haste to run to evil,
a false witness who breathes out lies,
and one who sows discord among men.
Sin is not just an act,
it’s the condition we are in.
It’s the adulterous heart
that gives birth to sin.
Some think adultery
is only about sex;
but it’s really about the type of heart
that a man reflects.
When you can do all things
without your God,
When you have no time
to read his Word,
When you make excuses
for the life you live,
this reflects the condition
your heart is in.
When we became separated
from the ONE who loves us,
our heart became dead
because it lost its breath.
When sin is fully grown
it brings forth death.
It represents the Spirit of God
departing from flesh.
It’s important to remember
that sin is not something
the Lord placed upon us;
Sin is in the man
whose heart is full of lust.
Rebellion is like
the sin of divination;
trying to be a god
on our own edification.
Arrogance is like
the evil of idolatry;
when we worship a god
that did not create thee.
We find the truth about sin
when we look deep within,
it's not found in the log
that's in another person's eye.
You can blame it on Satan
all you want
but it’s really about
the condition of your heart.
Placing blame on another
is a sign that YOU are in sin,
it’s the same reaction
that Adam did give.
When God asked him what he did,
he blamed it on Eve
instead of owning his own actions.

When sin gives birth to sin,
over and over again;
it becomes the iniquity
that is found in Revelation.
666 is nothing more
than humanity at its worst;
It’s the complete absence of God,
that represents our final divorce.
So take time now
to rest and repent,
turn from your ways
and focus on
the One who was sent.
Get rid of all filth
and expressions of evil;
humble yourself
and give up your will.
Align yourself
to the Spirit of God;
allow yourself to be corrected
by his staff and his rod.
Lay down your soul
so he can make you whole.
Fix your eyes on Yeshua,
for he is the goal.
When you look into the mirror,
what do you see?
Is it a reflection of God,
or your humanity?
Since you were made
in the image of "Father, Son and Spirit"
the clearer your reflection will be
when you commit your soul and your spirit.
It's time to sow into the depth of a man
who takes responsibility
for the state of mind he is in.
So do not delay!
Stop turning away!
God is calling you to PAUSE.
Do not look away.
Reflect in the mirror
he has provided this day.
If you don’t like what you see,
then change your ways.
He is ready to receive
the burden your in.
He says casts all your cares
on the shoulders of him.
It was never his heart
to be separated from you,
but since he is Holy
he had to keep himself
righteous and true.
He does not wish
to put you outside the gate;
He LOVES you!
That is why he gave you
the gift of grace.
Yeshua gave his life
to redeem you from sin;
your Creator desires
to bring you back to him.
So purify yourself
with the flesh of his Word;
eat of his body and
drink of his blood.
God is not the God
of outside in,
His seed grows from inside
the pure hearts of men.
