Get ready
for me to show my age and for those that understand that opening title and
those that don’t it shows all of our ages. LOL (Laugh out Loud …for those of
you that are reading this and don’t know those initials, which also reveals our
age. Ha, Ha, Ha) Anyway, the opening title comes from a show we used to watch
when I was growing up called “Lost in Space”. This snippet from Wikipedia is a
sufficient explanation of the phrase.
“Danger,
Will Robinson” or “Warning, Will Robinson” is a catchphrase from a 1960’s TV
series. A robot acting as a surrogate guardian, says this to the young Will
Robinson when the boy is unaware of impending threats. In everyday use, the
phrase warns someone that they are about to make a mistake or that they are
overlooking something.
God doesn’t
speak to us through a “Robot” but He does speak to us through His Word. In the following verses He “Warns” us…
Galatians 6:7-8 (ESV)
Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap. For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reaps eternal life.
Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap. For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reaps eternal life.
I think it
is safe to say there is a lot of sowing to the flesh going on in this world
today. However, God also “Warned” us in His Word about this as well.
2 Timothy 3:1-5 (ESV)
But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty.

Friends, we are here. You know when you go to map quest and
it has a blue circle to show you where you are or a mall if you are looking at
the store map it says next to a black X you are here. Well, we are here.
2 Timothy 3:1-5 (ESV)
goes on to say…..For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud,
arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless,
unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good,
treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather
than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its
power. Avoid such people.
In short, it isn’t
going to get better so “Don’t be deceived”. We live in a world that sows to the
flesh not to the Spirit. God’s Word tells us how to deal with this…
Galatians
6:9 (ESV) And let us not grow weary of doing
good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.
Do not grow weary and give up. Translated make sure you are sowing
good seed daily and don’t get distracted with these last days. Don’t get
distracted with those that are Lovers of Self…because it will steal your
joy!
God will not
be mocked. He is a Just God and His timing is perfect. Stay the course
friends!!
His,
