{{DOD-January}}
In today's reading we see that [[Abraham]] did leave [[Egypt]] and [[God]] forgave him and restored him to fellowship. But [[God]] could not overrule the sad consequences of the trip to [[Egypt]]. There was a loss of time and testimony. [[Sarah]]'s maid, Hagar, came from [[Egypt]], and brought untold trouble to the family. Lot had developed a taste for [[Egypt]]. Though [[Abraham]] took Lot out of [[Egypt]], he could not take [[Egypt]] out of Lot! How tragic when a mature believer leads a younger [[ Christian]] astray!
Are you a mature believer who is guilty of leading others astray? Many [[Christians]] are careless in their daily living. There is an old saying that our actions speak louder than our words. Be assured that the world is always watching the Christian! [[God]] forbid that we should ever be guilty of bringing reproach upon our [[Lord]] and [[Saviour]]. As [[Christians]], we should carefully guard our testimony. We are [[God]]'s children, the Holy [[Spirit]] lives within us, and our every action should be controlled by Him. Let's not be guilty of leading others astray by our careless living.
