Topic: Divine Prescription For Serving God Acceptably
Text: Chronicles 13.
1. Time does not change God's word.
2. Uzza had good intentions, yet he was wrong.
3. Check up your foundation. If any decision is wrong at the foundation, correct it.
4. Man may consider it a mistake or misdeed, but God calls it a sin.
5. Do not attempt to modernize God's principles for Him, just as the Israelites used animals to bear the Ark.
6. Seek to always follow the ways of God.
7. That it seems good, or that everyone seems to embrace it, does not make it right. David consulted with all the elders including the entire nation, and obtained their consents, yet the decision was wrong.
8. In all your consultations, ultimately consult with the Scriptures.
9. Whatsoever the scriptures say is FINAL.
10. Activities cannot take the place of righteousness.
11. Sanctify yourselves before working for Him.
12. Just one verse of God's word is greater than all the wisdom of men.
13. Never spite God's men, God's children or people in authority.
14. Many so called Christians hinder their progress with their tongues.
15. Never despise anyone, even in your heart.
By strength no man can fulfil these expectations of himself, so Lord, we ask for GRACE. Have mercy on us, fill us with your grace. In Jesus' name.
