WILL WE BE LIKE ESAU?

WORD OF WISDOM

BIRTHRIGHT ~ The first-born son had allotted to him also a double portion of the paternal inheritance (Deuteronomy 21:15-17). Reuben was, because of his undutiful conduct, deprived of his birth-right (Genesis 49:4; 1 Chronicles 5:1). Esau transferred his birth-right to Jacob (Genesis 25:33).

Heb 12:16-17 Lest there [be] any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.

Will we be like Esau? We do live in the land of plenty. There is plenty of food for all. We need to remember in the end time there will not be plenty of anything for us who refuse to take the mark of the beast to buy or sell. We will have money but what good will it do us during this time of tribulation or in the life that has been promised us?

We, like Esau, have been promised so much for following the laws of God, let us not sell our birthright for a morsel of food. There will be no place of repentance for us either no matter how much we seek Him.

For now, we shall answer for that which we do. How easy it is to sell your birthright? For a grain of meat? We have repentance, though many do not take full benefit of that offer. How so, by holding on to that which we have the rights to be forgiven. With tears we can seek the face of God and get the repentance that is rightfully ours. Are you holding on to anything? If so, then let it go, place it upon the altar and receive the forgiveness of God.
