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

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
