If you are asked what the world's deadliest animal is, you would quickly list the ferocious and scary beast that can gruesomely kill in an instant. However, in terms of the number of kills, you might be surprised which top the list in a year. While sharks and wolves kill an average of 10 people; elephants and lions kill 100 people; hippopotamuses kill 500 people; crocodiles kill 1000 and snakes kill about 50,000 people yearly.
This number, however is insignificant compared to lives that are lost to the deadliest creature in the world. According to World Health Organization, this creature is responsible for the death of more than 1 million people every year. It is estimated that this creature can cause a myriad of diseases. It can cause encephalitis, filariasis, yellow fever, west Nile virus, Chikungunya virus, Zika virus, malaria, and dengue fever. This creature is none other than the mosquito.!images.jpg At first sight, mosquito doesn't s seem scary or dangerous like crocodiles, sharks, lions and snakes. In fact, you'd rather have fun chasing it around to kill it; yet it is the dealiest of the above mentioned creatures. In the same vein, there are seemingly little things like the mosquito that may appear harmless in the life of a Christian. You may even say they don't matter, yet they have the capacity to drag a Christian to the pit of hell. ROMANS 6:23 SAYS, FOR THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH..... In most cases, it is the smallest things that pose the greatest risk to your life. In the same manner, it is the little sin in your Christian life that can easily lead you to spiritual death. These little sins are you more dangerous than those you regard as great sins because they can subtly creep into your life at an unguarded moment, if you are not watchful 👀. And if you allow those sins you term little in your life as a Christian, they will definitely deprive you of God's kingdom.
The tiniest sin will certainly separate you from the Holy God because His eyes are too pure to behold sin Habakkuk 1:13.
