Our Daily Manna Devotional 16 Dec 2021
TOPIC: REMEMBER LOT’S WIFE
BASIC SCRIPTURES: GENESIS 19:15-26; LUKE 17:32
Welcome to today’s devotional! There are a few things Jesus asked us to remember in the Bible. Jesus asked us to take note of what happened in the days of Noah because that is how the coming of the Son of man shall be (Luke 17:26-27). Our Daily Manna Devotional 16 Dec 2021 – REMEMBER LOT’S WIFE
Another thing Jesus asked us to do is to “REMEMBER LOTS WIFE.” Why should we remember Lot’s wife? What did she do? Verses 17 and 26 of today’s Scripture says: “And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, “Escape for thy life, look not behind thee…
But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.” Jesus said remember Lot’s wife because there are certain things He wants us to learn from the life of Lot’s wife! Lot’s wife looked back and defied the instruction to look forward and not backward.

And she paid for her disobedient act with her life. Just think of it! She died the same day as those inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah! Our goal must be to please our God and in so doing, our lives will be fulfilled. As 2021 ends, there is no room or time for you to worry about the things you left behind as you journey with Christ.
No matter how 2021 has been, rather than turning your attention to the past and rather than dwelling in REGRET or DEPRESSION, keep your eyes focused on what is yet ahead (Proverbs 4:25). Note the words: “AND SHE BECAME A PILLAR OF SALT. Lot’s wife looked back and became a Pillar of salt.
That means looking back is corrosive! Salt in open air is corrosive and becomes poisonous. Salt is used as a preservative indoors but once exposed to the exterior, it becomes poisonous just like salt and iron exposed to air.
When you lament about your past, your future becomes poisonous! As the year comes to an end, forget about your past and move on because: YOUR BEST DAYS ARE JUST AHEAD! Yes! Your best days are still ahead. Just hold on and hold out! Your expected end will come! Amen and amen!
