On the Twelfth day of December
T’was a bright and sparkling Sunday.
Our Pastor delivered a sermon this morning –
My notes I shall post, with the text leading the way.
“Then you said to me, ‘We have sinned against the LORD; we will indeed go up and fight, just as the LORD our God commanded us.’ And every man of you girded on his weapons of war, and regarded it as easy to go up into the hill country. And the LORD said to me, ‘Say to them, “Do not go up nor fight, for I am not among you; otherwise you will be defeated before your enemies.” So I spoke to you, but you would not listen. Instead you rebelled against the command of the LORD, and acted presumptuously and went up into the hill country. The Amorites who lived in that hill country came out against you and chased you as bees do, and crushed you from Seir to Hormah. Then you returned and wept before the LORD; but the LORD did not listen to your voice nor give ear to you. So you remained in Kadesh many days, the days that you spent there.”
Deuteronomy 1:41-46
Too often we don’t obey,
What the Lord hath said;
But rebellion to His Word,
Will leave us, in the end, dead.
If our God has said it,
We should happily obey.
Whatever we perceive will happen,
We must still follow what He doth say.
The Israelites response,
Was repentance, yet only feigned,
Not Biblical repentance,
For disobedience reigned.
Worldly sorrow,
Brings about regret.
But with Biblical repentance,
A great change is met.
To the KING be all the glory!
That’s a good way to present sermon notes. :D
