Genesis 3: 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings. 8 And they heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden. 9 Then the LORD God called to Adam and said to him, Where are you?" 10 So he said, "I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and i hid myself." 11 And He said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which i commanded you that you should not eat?" 12 Then the man said, "The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate. 13 And the LORD God said to the woman, 'What is this you have done?' The woman said, "The serpent deceived me, and I ate." 14 So the LORD God said to the serpent: "Because you have done this, You are cursed more than all cattle, and more than every beast of the field; on your belly you shall go, and you shall eat dust all the days of your life. 15 And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed; He shall bruise your head and you shall bruise His heel."
This is divination on the part of the serpent.
He chose to get close to the one weak. He could smell her scent for fruit! God told the serpent that he would eat the dust all the days of his life. Enmity was going to between you and woman. It was between your seed and her seed. He shall bruise your head and you shall bruise His heel.
Ever encountered a couple being divorced or may one spouse is up to no good. But news gets out and you find that the serpent got close to your family or maybe a friend. There is no good between that which the serpent has used his flesh. He walked before God and after this he covered fleshly things. He gets close to speak but also to smell the scents given off by the people he is after.
Sin was smelled by the serpent and following close he continues his prowl. He gets close by slithering closer and wraps around the head and chest to close off fresh air to your lungs.
Genesis 3:9-11 NKJV Then the LORD God called to Adam
and said to him, “Where are you?” 10 So he said, “I heard Your voice in the
garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself.” 11 And He
said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from tree which I commanded
you that you should not eat?”
1.
Hid:
cha-baw (2244) means to secrete….to
discharge or generate a secret
2.
To place out of sight, conceal,
to shroud
3. To emit: to send out as a
discharge into the environment
4.
One who slinks, sneaks, one who
is coward, a snake
Colossians 3:3-5 Amplified Bible 3 For [as far as this world is concerned] you have died, and your [new, real] life is hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, Who is our life, appears, the you also will appear with Him [in the splendor of His] glory. 5 So kill (deaden, deprive of power) the evil desire lurking in your members [those animal impulses and all that is earthly in you that employed in sin]; sexual vice, impurity, sensual appetites, unholy desires, and all greed and covetousness, for that is idolatry (the deifying of self and other created things instead of God).
Secrets! Secrets and Secrets! Flattery is emitted by the one who is choosing to cross the boundary lines. To HIDE out....to generate a secret. One that is concealed and out of sight. But leaves covered Adam and Eve....hearing the Spirit of God speak still they basked in sin on earth!!!
Hiding will Not Expand the Kingdom of God! Flattery for five minutes might get you into trouble and if not repenting, then you abide in that sin and in darkness.
Luke 13:20-22 NKJV And again He
said, “To what shall I liken the kingdom of God? 21 it is like leaven, which a
woman took and hid in three measures of meal till it was leavened.”
1.
The
kingdom of God active in and through us would be seen as faith and love exuding
from us
2.
That
kingdom is seen and revealed from heart to heart
Matthew 13:33-34 Amplified Bible 33 He told them another
parable. The kingdom of heaven is like leaven (sour dough) which a woman took
and covered over in three measures of meal or flour till all of it was
leavened. 34 These things all take together Jesus said to the crowds in
parables; indeed without a parable He said nothing to them.
1.
That
special property within the bread brings change, so to the kingdom will come
2.
Each
individual changes, sometimes silently, sometimes in dramatic ways, but sown slowly, will progress into that
which is desired
3. As the temples of God we are to be changed that represents Him in every value to our mind, will and emotions…by the Holy Spirit we are made to prosper and not to be hindered.
Who was your teacher , or who was your guide in righteousness? Did someone touch your ego with a word you have never heard? Is someone trying to touch you in unrighteous ways? Truth is to will out for God in this situation. If you have another and their kids....seed will sprout in trouble, sometimes revenge and hate. Not good if you just wanted five minutes of fun. Sin has a high price, it can look like a tattoo but have a meaning for evil and not for God. Sin takes you longer down the road to sin, especially if you have strong desire to want to sin! YIKES
No flattery please! Like to hear the pleasant words of the Lord that gives strength as we walk in stronger light that speaks future tense of His coming soon.WE are
Preparing the soil of America for the seed of the gospel, for truth and for
great change in the teachings we send out weekly. WE Prepare the way for Christ
to come to our land, as we continue to appeal, continue to decree, releasing
Kingdom authority and God’s will on earth.
