For taking your time to study remain blessed LIVING THE LIFE OF CHRIST IN HOLINESS WEDNESDAY APRIL 26 TEXT: LUKE 1: 74 – 78 Key verse: “Because it is written, be ye holy; for I am holy” 1 Peter 1: 16 Beloved, we are living in the world where people believe that nobody is holy, that we are all sinners. Many denominations don’t preach about holiness. But the bible says with God all things are possible. Jesus Christ as a man lived a holy life here on earth. Hebrews 4:15 “For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin”. Jesus Christ not only lived a holy life but also commanded all His disciples to walk as he walked, in holiness and righteous all the days of our lives. Some people misunderstand holiness without knowing that; A person can be a moralist like the rich young ruler but not holy; a person can be a close associate with a man of God like Gehazi yet not holy; A person can be a prophet like Balaam, read and preach the word but not Holy. What then is Holiness? Holiness is living a life that is free from sin when you are born again and sanctified. The Adamic nature is removed and your heart is free from indwelling sin (anger, malice, hatred, bitterness, pride, envy, jealousy, covetousness or lust). And your life is controlled by Jesus; Holiness is having the same mind with God, being in agreement with God at all times. Philippians 2: 5-11; Holiness is to be completely free from every outward sin, such as fighting, fornication/adultery, lying, cheating painting or face or make up, freedom from artificial beauty, freedom from worldliness and worldly pleasure; Holiness is to follow peace by making right all wrongs, doing our restitution. This will make you have a clear conscience toward God and man. Holiness is living a Christian life. To maintain a holy life after God has sanctified you, abide in Christ, constantly set your affection on heavenly things, read and meditate on the word of God every day, submit to God’s correction and chastisement. Pray and trust the Lord continually for the grace to live a holy life, keep off from temptation and practice self denial daily. Though for the day: Are you free from sin? Song for the day: Holiness unto the Lord is our watchword and song. . . Bible reading for the day: 2 Samuel 15-16; Luke 20:27-47 #horemow.

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
