TOPIC: DO NOT SUCCUMB TO THE COMPELLING INFLUENCE OF THE WORLD
TEXT: 1 John 2:15-17
Key verse: John17:16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
The Society is not a good teacher because it has lost its moral value. Ecclesiastes 7:29; Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions. There is so much perverseness among men that they see what is wrong as right and promote iniquity above righteousness. God frowns seriously at such moral debasement. Isaiah 5:20 Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. This explains why women now practically dress half naked in the name of fashion and majority see nothing wrong with it.
Politicians who steal public funds are celebrated and they even draw large crowd of sympathizers in the court when prosecuted. It is such negative influence of the majority that now make people to engage in all kinds of evil, thinking it is the right way to live.
• While God seeks obedience, majority seek convenience
• While God seeks the truth, majority love lies
• While God dwells in the light, majority love the deeds of darkness
• While God seeks patience, majority want quick result
• While God focuses on the future, majority seek immediate benefit
• While God seeks righteousness in all dealings, to the majority, the end justifies the means.
It is the negative influence of the majority that leads people into error. Sin is no longer seen as sin and very few people accept the possibility of living a pure and holy life.
• Workers steal from their employers because they see others stealing
• Children lie because they see their parents lying to each other
• Students cheat in exam hall because it is the norm in the school
• Husbands cheat on their wives because it is the vogue among men.
Jesus says, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.”
Jesus is the only true friend you have, listen to Him and follow Him.
Thought for the day: Listen to the Spirit of Jesus and follow Him even if you have to stand alone.
Song for the day :Where He leads me I will follow…
Bible reading for the day:
1Kings 3-5; Luke 23:1-26
