TOPIC: The Wages Of Sin (Seeds Of Destiny 21 November 2023)
SCRIPTURE: For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6:23
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: You may be alive, but something dies in you when you commit sin.
Seeds Of Destiny For Today 2023 MESSAGE:
It has been established that one of man’s undoing on earth is sin. There is no future for a sinner. Sin hinders destiny and the fulfillment of God’s Purpose,
In our study today, we shall look at the wages of sin:
- Iniquity corrupts mentality (Judges 16:6-7).
Corruption makes a person think differently. Iniquity corrupts mentality.
For example, a man may see no reason why he should take care of his wife at home. When his wife asks for a small amount of money, it becomes a quarrel, but the same man could give a strange woman, a “Jezebel” he had just met on the street, a massive sum of money. This is because iniquity has corrupted his mentality. - Iniquity attacks focus (Judges 16:6-7).
Iniquity attacks a man’s focus. For example, a drunkard practically has no focus. His mind is taken off essential things in life. He does useless and aimless things because his focus is under attack due to iniquity.
You cannot be focused when you are distracted by iniquity. - Iniquity attacks potential (Judges 16:6-7).
Iniquity weakens a man’s potential. Iniquity weakens a man’s capability, strength, and sharpness.
When Samson slept with Delilah and his hair was shaved, he woke up and wanted to go out as at other times, but he had no strength anymore; his potential was weakened.
T. L. Osborn once said, “Whenever you allow sin in your life, something dies inside you.”

This is true because the wage of sin is death (Romans 6:23a).
You may be alive, but something dies in you when you commit sin.
When you take the money you are not licensed to carry, you destroy “something” of greater worth.
- Iniquity ultimately ruins destiny (Judges 16:20-21).
Sin kills your future. Corruption ended the destinies of Samson and Judas Iscariot.
My counsel is to resist sin and uphold integrity to fulfill your destiny.
Remember this: You may be alive, but something dies in you when you commit sin.
ASSIGNMENTS:
- Resist sin vehemently like Joseph did when he was tempted by Potiphar’s wife.
- Make the decision to live right. Dissociate yourself from the company of sinners.
PRAYER: Lord, I ask that You help me not to lose my destiny through sin. I receive the grace to run from every appearance of evil, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

AMAZING FACT: Elephants have highly developed brains, the largest in the entire animal kingdom. Their brain is 3 or 4 times larger than other animals, although smaller than their enormous body weight.
