ANGLICAN COMMUNION DAILY FOUNTAIN DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY.
The Topic of Daily Fountain Devotional for 18th July 2024 Is “Avoid Drinking Alcoholic Drinks”
Read: Genesis 19: 30-38(NKJV)
19:30. Then Lot went up out of Zoar and dwelt in the mountains, and his two daughters were with him; for he was afraid to dwell in Zoar. And he and his two daughters dwelt in a cave.
19:31. Now the firstborn said to the younger, “Our father [is] old, and [there is] no man on the earth to come in to us as is the custom of all the earth.
19:32. “Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve the lineage of our father.”
19:33. So they made their father drink wine that night. And the firstborn went in and lay with her father, and he did not know when she lay down or when she arose.
19:34. It happened on the next day that the firstborn said to the younger, “Indeed I lay with my father last night; let us make him drink wine tonight also, and you go in [and] lie with him, that we may preserve the lineage of our father.”
19:35. Then they made their father drink wine that night also. And the younger arose and lay with him, and he did not know when she lay down or when she arose.
19:36. Thus both the daughters of Lot were with child by their father.
19:37. The firstborn bore a son and called his name Moab; he [is] the father of the Moabites to this day.
19:38. And the younger, she also bore a son and called his name Ben-Ammi; he [is] the father of the people of Ammon to this day.
ANGLICAN COMMUNION DEVOTIONAL OUTLINE FOR 18TH JULY 2024.
After Sodom’s destruction, Lot and his two daughters left Zoar and dwelt in a cave in the mountains. This was because he felt insecure in Zoar. On a conspiracy led by his elder daughter, Lot was made drunk with wine on two different occasions and both daughters became pregnant after having sex with him on two consecutive nights. Lot was so drunk with wine that he did not know when the incest occurred.The Bible warns us not to look on wine when it is red and sparkles in the cup (Prov. 23: 31). Christians are also divinely commanded not to be drunk with wine but to be filled with the Holy Spirit (Eph. 5: 18).
If Lot did not drink wine, would his daughters have committed incest with him?Avoid drinking wine with any level of alcohol, otherwise you wil1 be deceived like Lot (Prov. 20: 1). Many family quarrels, disagreements, divorces and separations can be traced to the use of alcoholic wine. Ask God to fill you with his Holy Spirit today so that you will do exploits for him. Don’t conspire to do evil!
PRAYER: Grant me the grace to avoid drinking wine and may I be filled with your Spirit O Lord!
