Let No Evil Remain
None of the accursed things shall remian in your hand, that the Lord may turn from the fierceness of His anger and show you mercy, have compassion on you and multiply you, just as He swore to your fathers.
~ Deuteronomy 13:17
ISRAEL |
"Israel must conquer idolatrous cities and destroy all the spoil, regarding all that had been polluted by idolatry as an accursed thing to be burned with fire. Now, sin of all sorts must be treated by Christians in the same manner. We must not allow a single evil habit to remain. We regard this as a fruit of the grace of God, which we should on no account miss.
When we multiply our efforts against iniquity, the Lord multiplies our blessings. The way of peace, of growth, of safety, of joy in Christ Jesus will be found by following out these words, "None of the accursed things shall remain in your hand." Lord, purify me this day. Compassion, prosperity, increase, and joy will surley be given to those who put away sin with solemn resolution."
(By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
LORD, HELP US TO CLEAN OUT OUR HOUSE FROM ALL THE UNCLEAN THINGS THAT WILL CAUSE OF TO FALL TO SIN. HELP US TO HAVE THE COURAGE TO STAND UP TO THE PEOPLE THAT WE LOVE AND SAY, WE ARE CLEANING THIS HOUSE FROM ALL UNCLEAN THINGS. THIS WE ASK IN JESUS CHRIST' PRECIOUS NAME, AMEN.
