DON’T BE A STUMBLING BLOCK 3

It is better not to teach at all than to teach others and then be found to be doing the opposite of what you are teaching them. At the same time, if God has called you to teach, it is a sin to refuse. Even if you are not called to teach anyone else, it is your responsibility to teach your own children, and you must practice what you teach them.

The position that some of us find ourselves are not by mere coincidence. There are messages that God through you want to pass to people and you are the instrument that God will deploy. Therefore how prepared is your vessel before God? Do you think it’s ideal to take advantage of the innocent because of your position in life? We will surely give account of our stewardship in life. I beseech you never to become a stumbling block to the salvation of many who are looking unto you as model and as a representative of Christ that you are. II Cor 5: 20.

There is something that you can do about the errors so far committed, but you have to make a choice to use your will. God is able to turn your errors into enviable records. We all have once been a stumbling block, but we cannot continue to be.

God desires to turn all your bad experiences and all the wrong choices you’ve made into something that will work for your good. But He only will do that if you let him. Have you ever heard “Let go and let God”?
We all make wrong choices and we all make mistakes. Our faults and sins often bring bad things into our lives. Sometimes they happen because of wrong associations with others who have their own shortcomings, sins and failures. Make up your mind never to be associated with ungodly conduct that can mislead an innocent.

Prayer: I will not be a stumbling block in my life
