Learning From The Past

From: Pastor Wylie Rhinehart Jr.

Mistakes and failures hold no sacredness in silence.

And in these known cases, we are privileged and empowered to know:

  • David should have been at war.
  • Judas should have been in the prayer meeting in the garden.
  • Moses should have spoken to the rock instead of striking it.
  • Saul should have waited for Samuel.
  • Eli should have restrained his sons.
  • Lot’s wife shouldn’t have looked back.
  • Uzzah should not have touched the ark.
  • Samson should have left Delilah’s lap.
  • Ananias and Sapphira should have told the truth.

All is for naught if we don’t learn from the mistakes of others. And for sure from the mistakes we make ourselves.

“For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.” Rom 15:4.
