Noonday Devotion by Keith
ARE YOU IN THE RIGHT PLACE?
2 Samuel 11:2,3
2 And it came to pass in an eveningtide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king's house: and from the roof he saw a woman washing herself; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon.
3 And David sent and enquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?
David usually made a point of asking the Lord about everything.
So why didn't he enquire of the Lord here?
Probably because David wasn't in the place he should of been.. amen?
When we aren't at the place, that we should be with God. Then we are more liable to fall into sin and to leave ourselves wide open to temptation.
David was a king, and so he had probably faced this temptation before, but victory in the past, was no defence to Him. Whatever victories we have had
in the past, this will not guarantee victory in the future. We have to continually die to self and to crucify the flesh daily to continually be victorious.. amen
These verses should act as a warning to us. David knew exactly who Bathsheba was and still he went and enquired after her.
How often do we know that something is wrong for us to do. But we still enquire after it?
We fall into sin so often, because we basically make the wrong choices, we know the right thing to do, but we don't do it.. amen
We need to feed on the word of God and pray at all times. Also we need to discipline our minds. David's sin, started with laziness, but continued with a look. then he took action.. this is the same for us.. inactivity
brings laziness.. leads to us looking at things we shouldn't.. leads to us taking wrong actions.
Let us not be lazy in reading the word and prayer and serving God. Let us not be one of the ones who is walking the rooftops instead of fighting the enemy
God Bless you

THE TONGUE !
Your words, your dreams, and your thoughts have power to create conditions in your life.
What you speak about, you can bring about.
If you keep saying you can't stand your job, you might lose your job.
If you keep saying you can't stand your body, your body can become sick.
If you keep saying you can't stand your car, your car could be stolen or just stop operating.
If you keep saying you're broke, guess what? You'll always be broke.
If you keep saying you can't trust a man or trust a woman, you will always find someone in your life to hurt and betray you.
If you keep saying you can't find a job, you will remain unemployed.
If you keep saying you can't find someone to love you or believe in you, your very thought will attract more experiences to confirm your beliefs.
If you keep talking about a divorce or break up in a relationship,
Then you might end up with it.
Turn your thoughts and conversations around to be more positive and power packed with faith, hope, love and action.
Don't be afraid to believe that you can have what you want and deserve.
Watch your Thoughts, they become words.
Watch your words, they become actions
Watch your actions, they become habits.
Watch your Habits, they become character.
Watch your Character, for it becomes your Destiny
The minute you settle for less than you deserve, you get even less than you settle for.
