God's Warning Label

John 5:14 "But afterward Jesus found him in the Temple and told him, “Now you are well; so stop sinning, or something even worse may happen to you.” The wages of sin is death, sin brings destruction into our lives. Jesus warned the lame that had been healed to stop sinning or something worse may happen to him. When people get healed, delivered, set free or forgiven there is a warning label that reads, stop sinning or something worse may happen to you. Only God can heal the sick, set free those who are oppressed, forgive our sins and save our souls, but we have a responsibility to walk out the freedom that Christ gives. A supernatural miracle can be short lived if you continue in a lifestyle of sin. God can supernaturally meet your financial needs but if you refuse to change your ways, debt will rise back up and devour you. God can heal you of cancer, but if you continue to smoke it can come back and take your life. God can forgive you of your past and wipe away the shame and guilt of your yesterday, but if you don't change the way you live, guilt and shame will come back like a flood. There is a warning label that comes on the back of every miracle and supernatural work that God does in our lives, if we obey it, we walk out our freedom and move forward into the future that God has for us. But if we violate the warning label we will end up worse in the end. Don't allow your miracle to short lived, walk out what God has given you and enjoy the journey of your life.
