The Older Son

If you read the story of the "prodigal son" we can learn alot about those who wander away from God. There is another story in the story that deserves our attention. The older son was an in house prodigal. The older son had lost his way in the house. Today many believers are in there own world not necessarily in the world.
What are some of the symptoms of an in house prodigal?
  • working in the Fathers house but forgetting why
  • having a lack of joy when good things happen
  • having built up anger issues
  • having to be begged to get involved
  • thinking that we are owed something
  • having a critical spirit of people
  • forgetting who we are in Christ
The story does not tell us if the in house prodigal came back to his spiritual senses but I choose to believe he did. Just as the heavens rejoice when a sinner comes to the Lord I am convinced that the heavens rejoice when a christian starts to live for the the Lord again.

Spiritual decline leads to getting off of Gods Divine plan for our life. Turning back to God leads to blessings and the fullness of joy. Today is your day to get back on track. Lets pray: Dear Lord, we turn away from the things that are robbing us of our fullness in you. We repent of our prodical life and ask that we that we get back to your business. We ask these things in Jesus Name.
