TOPIC: GET RID OF WORLDLINESS     
DECEMBER Sunday 2nd
TEXT: 1 John 2: 12-17
KEY VERSE: Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 1 John 2: 15
Worldliness refers to the lifestyles and activities of sinful men living in this world which are invented, inspired and promoted by Satan, the god of this world, which are contrary to the word, way and will of God, and which defile, corrupt and damn human souls in hell fire. Worldliness is living according to the dictates of the world. It is pure carnality. These include the following:
1. The love of money: Many people make money their god. It is their reason for living. They do many evil things to get money. They disregard God’s commands and righteous demands because of the drive for money in them.
2. The love of pleasure: sinful activities give corrupt people pleasure, such as: alcohol; sex; smoking; dancing; wickedness; worldly parties; etc. The pleasures they give are transient and temporary. Many suffer untimely death because of seeking worldly pleasures and entertainments.
3. Ungodly dressing and adornment: Many sinners in the world do not submit to decent dressing. They dress in such a way that will entice others and promote sin. They seek to achieve bodily beauty, attraction and commendation. They use articles of bodily beauty such as perfume, earrings, chains, necklace, rings, bracelets, beads, artificial hair, cosmetics, etc.
4. Search for power through witchcraft and Satanism: Many people want to display power and authority among their fellow men. Maybe they want to be feared and honoured. Some want to acquire wealth, political position or promotion.
Never seek help, prayer, healing, deliverance or blessing from witch doctors or demonized preachers. You will become defiled, unholy and unfit for heaven.
Thought for the day: Determine to live the righteous life required for heaven.
Song for the day: I have decided to follow Jesus
Bible reading for the day:
Ezekiel 47-48; 1 John 1

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...
