FOCAL SCRIPTURE
ECCLESIASTES 12:1-7
Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them; Vs 1
While the sun, or the light, or the moon, or the stars, be not darkened, nor the clouds return after the rain: Vs 2
In the day when the keepers of the house shall tremble, and the strong men shall bow themselves, and the grinders cease because they are few, and those that look out of the windows be darkened, Vs 3
And the doors shall be shut in the streets, when the sound of the grinding is low, and he shall rise up at the voice of the bird, and all the daughters of musick shall be brought low; Vs 4
Also when they shall be afraid of that which is high, and fears shall be in the way, and the almond tree shall flourish, and the grasshopper shall be a burden, and desire shall fail: because man goeth to his long home, and the mourners go about the streets: Vs 5
Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern. Vs 6
Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. Vs 7
Esau is a life of many lessons, he laughed when he was supposed to cry and therefore wept when he was supposed to laugh.
The youthful life can sometimes be described as a blunder where some may choose blunder, others may choose blessing. Esau choose blunder, while Jacob choose blessing. Well it is a choice.
When you read life outside God, you are sure to misunderstand life and consequently miss out on God's eternal purpose.
Esau misread life, misunderstood it and misspent it. He realized his blunder too late.
GENESIS 27:34-40
And when Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with a great and exceeding bitter cry, and said unto his father, Bless me, even me also, O my father. Vs 34
And he said, Thy brother came with subtilty, and hath taken away thy blessing. Vs 35
And he said, Is not he rightly named Jacob? for he hath supplanted me these two times: he took away my birthright; and, behold, now he hath taken away my blessing. And he said, Hast thou not reserved a blessing for me? Vs 36
And Isaac answered and said unto Esau, Behold, I have made him thy lord, and all his brethren have I given to him for servants; and with corn and wine have I sustained him: and what shall I do now unto thee, my son? Vs 37
And Esau said unto his father, Hast thou but one blessing, my father? bless me, even me also, O my father. And Esau lifted up his voice, and wept. Vs 38
And Isaac his father answered and said unto him, Behold, thy dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above; Vs 39
And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck. Vs 40
Many atheists and sinners who will remain in their unbelief will weep like Esau, they will repent when repentance avails nothing.There are people who live without being mindful of life afterwards
Bible said concerning Esau:
For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessings, he was rejected.
Your actions today have an afterward dividends.
Bible lamented in Deuteronomy 32:29:
O that they were wise that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end.
Esau did not consider his latter end.
Wise people do not live for today, they live for today in relation and consideration of tomorrow. There should be weeping and wailing.
You know, there are some people when you see them, they look as iron cast as Hitler and you think they cannot cry.
The egoistic bravado of today cannot stand the torture of hell.
Like Esau, you could be yoked with your neck to sin but the earlier you get to make the right choice, the better for you
Repent and do the right thing now.
PRAYER
May I not be numbed by present realities, good or bad to lose consciousness of eternity. Lord help me not to mortgage eternal joy for momentary pleasure of sin.
