WASTE

We are fearfully, wonderfully and beautifully made (Ecclesiastes 3:11, Psalms 139).

Made in the likeness of God Almighty (Genesis 1:28-30, Revelation 5:10). We are made

His sons (John 1:12) and that automatically makes us ‘gods’ (Psalms 82:1) and heirs to

his kingdom (Hebrews 9:15) through the death of ‘our brother’, Jesus. Through the same

death, we were brought back when we strayed away. God brought us back because He

loves us, He sent his only son to die that we may not be WASTED. (John 3:16).

This huge sacrifice shows how strongly God hates WASTE. He preserved Noah, his

family and a pair of every living creature despite regretting why he made the world

(Genesis 6:6). He didn’t want to WASTE any species (Genesis 6:18-21). He spared Lot

and his daughters when He turned Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes (Genesis 19:20). He

left one blessing for Esau so that he wont WASTE (Genesis 27:30-40). Crumbs were

gathered into baskets to avoid WASTE after feeding five thousand people (Matthew

14:20).

We need not ask why God detests WASTE as we see the adverse effects of WASTE in

our daily lives. Household WASTE dumped near our habitats constitutes the diseases

that affect and kill millions of us. We suffer the likes of Malaria, Typhoid, Cholera, e.t.c.

Malaria happens to be one of the deadliest diseases in the world, killing millions every

year. All of these deaths, we owe to improper WASTE management. It is interesting to

realize that even HIV/AIDS spreads explosively as a result of WASTE; the sperm/body
that is supposed to be preserved for ones wife or vise versa, is WASTED in promiscuity

and he/she lasciviously contracts it and/or other STDs.

Industrial WASTE pollutes our air, water and land, killing us, our plants and animals.

People die of hunger and starvation because they WASTED in times of abundance.

Nations go to war because of WASTED words. People get killed by stray bullets; how

unfortunate to be killed by WASTE because to the shooter, it’s a WASTED shot since

he did not hit his intended target yet somebody dies.

If we cannot stand WASTE, how then can our heavenly father? That is why God

rejected Cain’s offering (Genesis 4:3). That is why Jesus cursed the fig tree that had no

fruit (Mark 11:14). That is why God WASTED Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 19:24).

God did not save us just to see us WASTE. Do not allow yourself to get killed by

WASTE. I have nothing against death but if you must die, die a death purposely meant

for you (like the death of Christ on the cross).

All the types and forms of WASTES mentioned above can kill but only your flesh. The

scariest WASTE of all is the one that targets the soul. I am most concerned with the

WASTE from heaven (Isaiah 14:12) who deceives you to death; he kills, steals and

destroys you into a pile of WASTE. Lucifer was cast down from the presence of the

most high and that qualifies him as a WASTE (Luke 10:18-20).

Therefore brethren are you going to allow yourself to be WASTED by WASTE?

Decide now for there is no time to WASTE.
