A CHILD OR A DOG?
Memorise: But he answered and said, It
is not meet to take the children’s bread, and to cast it to dogs. Matthew 15:26
Read: Matthew 15:21-28, Bible in one
year: Isaiah 43-44, Acts 9:1-22
In His discussion with the
Syro-Phoenician woman whose daughter was possessed by evil spirits, Jesus
expounded that those who belong to the kingdom of God
“For
without are dogs, and sorcerers and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters,
and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.”
Jesus also said that miracles are meant
for children of the kingdom and not for dogs. This should be food for thought
for anyone seeking a miracle. The question is, “Are you a child or a dog?” You
are a candidate for miracles of all sorts if you are a child, but it is
unfortunate if you remain in the position of a dog.
What are the traits of those considered
as dogs in the kingdom
of God
“For
dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have in closed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.”
This means that the wicked are dogs.
Paul , in Philippians 3:2 also warned against evil workers whom the described
as dogs:
“Beware
of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision.”
In light of these, sinners who refused
to repent and come to the side of God are dogs.
One the other hand, the forgiven of the
Lord are children (Psalm 32:1). Only the children of the Miracle Worker can
access His miracles. The Bible in Isaiah 63:8 says:
“For
the said, Surely they are my people, children that will not lie: so he was
their Saviour.”
Unless a person repents and believe in
the saving Name of Jesus Christ, he remains a dog. Are you a dog or a child?
Get ready for a big miracle this season if you are truly one of the children of
God. If you are not, be ready to give up your pride and self-righteousness in
order to be adopted by the Holy One of Israel
Action Point
Examine yourself to ascertain if you are
a genuine child of God. If you are, cry to your father for that miracle you
urgently need.
