TOPIC: Don’t Defile The Land (DCLM Daily Manna 28 June 2022)
TEXT: Leviticus 18:17-30 (KJV)
17 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter, neither shalt thou take her son’s daughter, or her daughter’s daughter, to uncover her nakedness; for they are her near kinswomen: it is wickedness.
18 Neither shalt thou take a wife to her sister, to vex her, to uncover her nakedness, beside the other in her life time.
19 Also thou shalt not approach unto a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is put apart for her uncleanness.
20 Moreover thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour’s wife, to defile thyself with her.
21 And thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through the fire to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the Lord.
22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.
23 Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion.
24 Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you:
25 And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants.
26 Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations; neither any of your own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you:
27 (For all these abominations have the men of the land done, which were before you, and the land is defiled;)
28 That the land spue not you out also, when ye defile it, as it spued out the nations that were before you.
29 For whosoever shall commit any of these abominations, even the souls that commit them shall be cut off from among their people.
30 Therefore shall ye keep mine ordinance, that ye commit not any one of these abominable customs, which were committed before you, and that ye defile not yourselves therein: I am the Lord your God.
KEY VERSE: “For all these abominations have the men of the land done, which were before you, and the land is defiled; That the land spue not you out also, when ye defile it, as it spued out the nations that were before you” (Leviticus 18:27, 28).
DCLM Daily Manna For Today MESSAGE:
Two evil friends who specialised in robbing accident victims enjoyed their “vocation” for some time. They usually rushed to accident sites and while the victims struggled between life and death, they dispossessed them of their valuables. But one night, though they lived miles apart from each other, a strange thunder struck and killed them both. The land “spued” them out of it.
The occupants of the land of Canaan had defiled the land with evil practices. Their iniquity which was not yet full as at the time of Abraham (Genesis 15:16) has blossomed and multiplied, and the judgment must now come as God would root them out and replace them with Israel.

Sin has “motion”; it has “life” which sets things working against the sinner. The earth does not operate independently of the righteous laws of God and the law of sowing and reaping must apply in all spheres of a man’s life. It is no news today that evils of all forms such as bribery, rape, ritual killings, kidnapping, etc., have become rampant in all parts of the world and carried out even in broad day light. But like the two evil friends, those who delight in it, will eventually be marked for destruction, except they repent.
The average sinner today does not know that the horrors of hell must be avoided. Truth is, anyone who dies in sin will be greeted with, “Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels” (Matthew 25:41). The only way out is to receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Receive Christ today to avoid eternal regret.
