MESSAGE TITLE:-
WHEN SALT LOOSES ITS TASTE.

Scripture Reading:-
Matt 5 :13-16

WHEN YOUR SALT LOOSES ITS TASTE

Decay,both in spiritual and physical does not comes suddenly in a man’s life.
-Business collapse,
-Separation in marriage,
-even Backsliding,
does not come in a day.

The signs are out there,but we failed to noticed.
All many see is problem.
They failed to activate what is called
“KEENNESS OF EYES AND SPIRIT”

ISAIAH 41:28-end
This is a loaded verse
And it’s showing us the state of our Christianity

LAMENTATION 5:1-16(NLT)
That’s the lamentation of what’s happening to us believers.
Kings becoming powerless.
We are chasing things that we are PROMISED will be running after us.

Listen beloved,
Not everyone noticed if the soup is lacking maggi,or onion or pepper.
Only the few,
Only the gifted can.

But if the soup is lacking salt,
Almost everyone can notice it.

That’s why the bible is emphasizing the importance of salt

Leviticus 2:13
Says every oblation of meat offering shall you season with salt.

Colossians 4:6 says:
“Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man”.

-it’s talking about your speech being Gracious and Attractive.

Thats what the Lord is showing you today.
We all see openly problems manifesting,
We failed to notice when it starts.

Let us take Marriage for example,
I encourage you to have a nickname for your partner.
Because anytime things went wrong,
That special name automatically disappear from his mouth.

Instead of Honey,M.D,suggarlolly,
You now hear “hey you,”
As if the partner is a dog.

“When the salt looses its taste”.
-Your friendship,
-Your marriage,
-Your working environment needs careful scrutiny.

Do you know,
That the devil knows our
weaknesses.

Jude vs 4 says:
“For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus”.

Two cannot walk together unless they first agree.
The devil deals with our:-
-understanding,
-love,
-trust,
-unity,
Of our partners.
Anytime these 4 items are removed from relationship,it becomes Tasteless.

Men loves to polish their outer being,but their inner minds are empty.

We love to put –
creams,
powder,
foundation etc on our faces,but there is no equal interest in your spiritual energy.

Thats why they fall under different forms of hypnotism,pentecostal witchcraft and all forms of deception.

Many lives are being redesigned by other men.
Why?
Their spiritual level is zero.

Ecclesiastes 10:6 says, “Folly is set in great dignity, and the rich is sitted in the low place.”

Here, we see a rearrangement;
the rich has been brought down while the foolish is prompted to the top one way or another .

Ecclesiates 10:7 says, “I have seen servants upon horses, and princes walking as servants upon the earth.”
There are so many masquerading princes around who have been redesigned to become servants.

Am praying for someone today:
Any power forcefully riding the horse of your destiny shall summersault.

In 2 Tim 3:13,
The bible says,”the evil doers and seducers will wax stronger,
deceived and being deceived.

You need resident fire in your spirit.
So when they come near you,your inner spirit begins to reveal who they are to you.

Build up your spirit man today,
So that you do not fall into the hands of workers of deception.
Be careful of your salt going sour.
