Daily Fountain Devotional 2 July 2026 TOPIC: Reserved In An Everlasting Chains
SCRIPTURE READING: Jude 1:6-8
6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.
7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
8 Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.
TODAY’S DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE
Today’s text emphasises the reality of God’s judgment against the rebellious and unrighteous. Sodom and Gomorrah who sold themselves to sexual immorality and perversion were given the right dose of God’s anger and condemnation; Angels who abandoned their estates were kept in darkness and bound with everlasting chains. God’s judgment is severe and hard. God is merciful and kind but those who do not regard His words and instructions will face the consequence which is always very harsh and tough.
A life that is given to unrighteousness, perversion and immorality is running the danger of being confined to everlasting chain and torture. You must ensure that you resist whatever the devil does to lure you into unrighteousness. Again, you must do everything within your power as enabled by the power of Holy Spirit, to persuade others to live their lives in righteousness and holiness so as to escape the anger and judgment of God.
PRAYER FOR TODAY: Almighty God, help me to flee from unrighteous living so that my end will not be in everlasting chains. Amen!
