Isaiah 22:12-14 “And in that day the Lord GOD of hosts Called for weeping and for mourning, For baldness and for girding with sackcloth. But instead, joy and gladness, Slaying oxen and killing sheep, Eating meat and drinking wine: “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!” Then it was revealed in my hearing by the LORD of hosts, “Surely for this iniquity there will be no atonement for you, Even to your death,” says the Lord GOD of hosts.”
A couple of years ago, people were using the saying, “YOLO” which was an acronym meaning, You Only Live Once. With this saying, people had the thought process to do whatever they felt whenever they wanted because we only live once. Unfortunately, most of the behavior was contrary to the Word of God.
As we can see from the scripture, YOLO is nothing new. In this case, God called for weeping and mourning but instead, they were going to party and die.
Living the “YOLO” life displays a lack of discipline. When we live an undisciplined life, we limit what God can do in our lives. How can God bless the undisciplined? How can He trust us with blessings if we’re not willing to yield ourselves to Him? Although it seems like we have one life to live, what we do in this life will determine the quality of living and maybe determine if we’ll have everlasting life. Live a life that honors God.
