FAITH CAPSULE: Error is a moral offense; wrongdoing; sin.
2 Samuel 6
Doing what is good wrongly in the name of God is an error with no excuse before God, not to experience the consequence.
There is always a consequence for any violation of the word of God.
However, mercy belongs to God for any repentance for doing wrong before God.
With repentance, consequence will also answer with peace that surpasses understanding.
The world will see the consequence but not understand the peace in the life of one who is at peace.
Be warned, error is a deviation from accuracy, as in a mistake, as in action or speech.
Error is the condition of believing what is not true.
Error is a moral offense; wrongdoing; sin.
It is an error to violate the word of God, and it can be a conscious or unconscious error before God.
An error happened in despising the word of God.
The word states, “He who despises the word will be destroyed…” (Proverbs 13:13)
Have you in any way violated or currently violating the word of God?
Before God, there is no excuse for error.
Before God, Adam and Eve committed the error of believing the serpent. They ate where God asked them not to eat.
When God showed up (just as He will show up to all), both Adam and Eve attempted to justify their action before God by stating, “Then the man said, ‘The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.” And the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.” (Genesis 3:12-13)
The excuse of Adam and Eve was not enough before God, but they received the consequence for their disobedience.
It happened that during the transfer of the Ark of God from the house of Abinadab, Uzzah and Ahio drove the cart.
In the process of moving the ark, Uzzah touched it when he should not have.
The bible recorded his error, “And when they came to Nachon’s threshing floor, Uzzah put out his hand to the ark of God and took hold of it, for the oxen stumbled. Then the anger of the Lord was aroused against Uzzah, and God struck him there for his error; and he died there by the ark of God.’ (Genesis 6:6-7) The act of Uzzah, which was of a good heart, but an error before God.
Uzzah despised the word of God as stated in Numbers 4:15, “And when Aaron and his sons have finished covering the sanctuary and all the furnishings of the sanctuary, when the camp is set to go, then the sons of Kohath shall come to carry them; but they shall not touch any holy thing, lest they die.” Uzzah touched the holy thing, which was the ark of God.
To despise the word of God, taking a position of self-destruction.
Prayer point: Pray not to be a victim of violation of God consciously or unconsciously.
