Compromise exists in the church and outside of the church. Serving God as it pleases man is a way of compromising the word of God. Compromising the word of God can be a lack of faith. Without faith God is not pleased but with faith He is pleased. (Hebrews 11:6) Compromise is not of God. Clearly, compromising the word of God\u2019s word is the devil\u2019s tool for confusing believers and unbelievers. Compromise will corrupt man\u2019s journey in life. Compromise is a conscious or unconscious way of embracing evil and not living in the fear of God. A believing believer that does not restrain wrong doing is taking to a position of compromise. Such believer is one that knows what is good and not do according the word of God. <strong><em>James 4:17<\/em><\/strong> buttressed, <strong><em>\u201cTherefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.\u201d<br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong>Are you compromising the word of God to impress your member; your pastor or compromising the word of God to be complementing an eminent member to avoid eminent one from departing from member?<br \/>\nAlso, compromising wrongly between parents and children is taking position charge just as it was in the life of Eli and his sons. The Bible recorded about the corruption of the sons of Eli in <strong><em>1 Samuel 2:12-15, \u201cNow the sons of Eli were corrupt; they did not know the Lord. <sup>\u00a0<\/sup>And the priests\u2019 custom with the people was that when any man offered a sacrifice, the priest\u2019s servant would come with a three-pronged fleshhook in his hand while the meat was boiling. Then he would thrust it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; and the priest would take for himself all that the fleshhook brought up. So they did in Shiloh to all the Israelites who came there. <sup>\u00a0<\/sup>Also, before they burned the fat, the priest\u2019s servant would come and say to the man who sacrificed, \u201cGive meat for roasting to the priest, for he will not take boiled meat from you, but raw.\u201d<br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong>Compromising the word of God by the sons of Eli was recorded as great sin before God because Eli did not restrain his children.<br \/>\nWhen God called on Samuel, He identified the sin of Eli\u2019s son and His judgment of Eli stating, <strong><em>\u201cIn that day I will perform against Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house, from beginning to end.<sup>\u00a0<\/sup>For I have told him that I will judge his house forever for the iniquity which he knows, because his sons made themselves vile, and he did not restrain them.\u201d (1 Samuel 3:12-13)<\/em><\/strong> Eli compromised before God and it counted as his sin before God. Eli\u2019s destiny was corrupted, and his sons were terminated.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prayer for today:<\/strong> <em>Ask for the grace of God to deliver you from every ground of compromising His word.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FAITH CAPSULE: To be-living outside of God is compromising His word. 1 Samuel 2:12-36 Compromise can be described as: An agreement reached by adjustment of conflicting or opposing claims or principles.
