TOPIC: BEWARE!
TEXT: 2 Corinthians 6:14-18
Key verse: 1 Peter 4:7 But the end of all things is at hand: be yeah therefore sober, andwatch unto prayer.
Don't just pray, also be very watchful because the days are evil. In your watchfulness, beware of the following:
1. BEWARE OF FALSE MINISTERS
(2 Timothy 3:1-5). A man came to a pastor and said “My dog has just died; he ask the pastor please can you conduct a burial ceremony for my dog?” The pastor replied, "What are you saying? This is a church for heaven's sake. We don't do that here.” The man responded, "Oh pastor, do you know any other person in town that can do it for $10,000?"The pastor's face lit up and he said, Oh, I didn't know your dog was a Christian." Be watchful, by their fruit, you shall know them.
2. HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE EVIL DEEDS OF DARKNESS
(Ephesians 5:10-12). Miracle handkerchiefs, aprons, anointing oil etc. are evil deeds of darkness. Beware!
3. BEWARE OF THE MIXED MULTITUDE
(Numbers 11:4-6). The lusting of the mixed multitudes negatively affected the children of Israel because they were not Born Again. You have the grace as the called, they do not. They will manifest work of the flesh on you. They carry the Bible but use charms and amulets. They tell you it doesn't matter, it's for personal protection. And since you're not using it to harm anybody it's not a sin.
4. BEWARE OF ENEMY WITHIN (Psalm 55:12-15). Some will come to you as helpers. Some will come with bribe and contaminating gifts to pervert the words of the righteous. You must be wise. They will so steal your heart that you will see them doing evil and you will be laughing. Your sense of evil will be dead. This is how some people are lured into witchcraft, cultism, armed robbery, adultery and other societal vices. They are zealous in the things of God but they are not sincere worshippers. They have a master. John 8:44.
5. BEWARE OF DECEITFUL LOYALISTS AND FLATTERERS.
When Sisera was running away, the woman brought milk and he felt he had gotten a secure place. But alas, when he slept off the woman drew a peg into him. They give flattered praises. They will never correct you for your errors but will urge you on to your eternal damnation.
6. BEWARE OF EVIL COUNSELLORS.
Evil counsellors will counsel you against the truth. They will present it in such a way and with much concern that will make you think they are sincere and have your interest at heart. Bible says, prove all things. David sent an evil counsellor to thwart the wise counsel of Ahithophel. Absalom was misled.
Thought for the day: Watch the people you associate with. It could be dangerous to your life.
Song for the day:Open my eyes o Lord
Bible reading for the day: Job 10-12; Acts 8:1-25
