The Beginning of Sin

1. The snake was the most clever of all the wild animals that the Lord God had made. The snake spoke to the woman and said, “Woman, did God really tell you that you must not eat from any tree in the garden?”

2 The woman answered the snake, “No, we can eat fruit from the trees in the garden.

3 But there is one tree we must not eat from. God told us, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden. You must not even touch that tree, or you will die.’”

4 But the snake said to the woman, “You will not die.

5 God knows that if you eat the fruit from that tree you will learn about good and evil, and then you will be like God!”

6 The woman could see that the tree was beautiful and the fruit looked so good to eat. She also liked the idea that it would make her wise. So she took some of the fruit from the tree and ate it. Her husband was there with her, so she gave him some of the fruit, and he ate it.

7 Then it was as if their eyes opened, and they saw things differently. They saw that they were naked. So they got some fig leaves, sewed them together, and wore them for clothes.

8 During the cool part of the day, the Lord God was walking in the garden. The man and the woman heard him, and they hid among the trees in the garden.

9 The Lord God called to the man and said, “Where are you?”

10 The man said, “I heard you walking in the garden, and I was afraid. I was naked, so I hid.”

11 God said to the man, “Who told you that you were naked? Did you eat fruit from that special tree? I told you not to eat from that tree!”

12 The man said, “The woman you put here with me gave me fruit from that tree. So I ate it.”

WED 18/5/22 MESSAGE:
Sin has enslaving power. The Bible affirms that on several occasions, the children of Israel sinned against God and He handed them over to their enemies to afflict and enslave them.

Beloved, sin makes the sinner a slave to satan, demons and his other cohorts. The devil is a slave driver and task master. He is also a legalist. He does not want his captives to ever go free. Thank God for the liberating power in the blood and Name of Jesus.

Sin also has polluting and perverting power. God is holy and cannot condone sin. Sin corrupts and perverts the original image of God. Sin grants the devil access to the sinner’s life to pollute and pervert it. Satan redesigns people’s lives and destinies for evil through the instrumentality of sin.

Sin has fear-inducing power. It weakens or kills faith. It produces fear and its attendant torment. The first thing Adam demonstrated after he sinned was fear. He told God that he hid himself because he saw that he was naked. Fear made him to hide himself from God.

Obedience and holiness produce faith and confidence in approaching God’s throne. Sin produces fear and makes the sinner to run from God.

Beloved, you can only live above sin and conquer its power by giving your life to Christ and living by the power of the Holy Spirit. When you become a child of God, He will forgive your sin, break its destructive power over your life and it will not have dominion over you anymore. I encourage you to become born again today. The victory of the Cross and the blessings of Calvary will begin to manifest in your life.

Beloved, the moment you confess your sins and forsake them, the devil and his cohorts will lose any legal right they have over your life and affair. That is why repentance and restitution have amazing power to produce your salvation, deliverance, healing and restoration.

Once you keep sin away from your life and cling to God in holy living and obedience, you will experience mountain-top Christian life.
