Genesis 4:15a, 23-24
"But the Lord said to him, "Not so ; anyone who kills Cain will suffer vengeance seven times over."
"Lamech said to his wives, "Adah and Zillah, listen to me; wives of Lamech, hear my words. I have killed a man for wounding me, a young man for injuring me. If Cain is avenged seven times, then Lamech seventy-seven times."
IN THE INSTANCE OF CAIN, GOD GAVE THE DECREE OF SEVEN TIMES OVER,
BUT IN LAMECH'S CASE, HE MAGNIFIED HIMSELF & CARRIED OUT HIS OWN JUDGEMENT!
LESSON OF THE DAY:
"WHEN YOU MAKE YOURSELF OF GREATER IMPORTANCE, GOD BECOMES LAST ON YOUR LIST!"
