SACRIFICING QUALITY OVER NUMBERS

Friends,

Do you know Numbers don’t really matter with God? He is always interested in Quality.

Let us always be careful not to compromise quality with numbers.

The story in Genesis 18 is a typical example.

The Lord did not mince words when he meant what he said. He emphasized quality-and not numbers

with the father of our faith, Abraham.

Abraham negotiated with God from finding 50 to 10 righteous people.

Interestingly the Lord couldn’t find such in Sodom and Gomorrah. Do you know the days of Sodom and Gomorrah are here with us again?

Would the Lord count you among the few if he should come today?

Lk 18:8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

Are we boasting of our numbers, big church auditoriums and not the quality of life of a believer that is in tune with the Spirit of the Lord? Is christ reflecting and centre our lives?

Mind you, broad is the way to destruction and few be that find it.

Mt 7:13 -14 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide [is] the gate, and broad [is] the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

Because strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

There is a also highway and a way.

Isa 35:8 And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it [shall be] for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err [therein].

May the Lord grant unto grace to find this narrow way and stay in it till he comes again.

Shalom
