DON'T LOOK BACK

Genesis 19:26
But Lot's wife looked back,
and she became a pillar of salt.



It wasn't the looking back that destroyed Lot’s wife, but rather it was her disobedience to God's given command. The angel’s instruction was clear in Genesis 19:17, “Run for your lives! Do not stop anywhere in the valley. And don't look back! Escape to the mountains, or you will die.” You’re might even be asking yourself, “Why on earth did she look back?” The Bible teaches us in Luke 12:34, “Wherever your treasure is, there your heart and thoughts will also be.” When God gives instructions, our responsibility is to obey. What we may lose by obeying isn’t important at all as long as we gain Christ’s approval for being obedient.
