DON’T GET ENTANGLED WITH UNBELIEVERS

 For taking your time to study remain blessed. 

TOPIC: DON’T GET ENTANGLED WITH UNBELIEVERS September Saturday 5th

TEXT: Hosea 7:8–9 

KEY VERSE: 2 Corinthians 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?


A little dead fly in the oil of the apothecary. Sweet oil with good smell, but when people see a dead fly in it, they remove their eyes and hold their noses. Beautiful oil but foul odour! You are not paying attention to your life and folly has come into you. In today’s reading text, Ephraim is described as a cake not turned. Weakness has come upon him. Can you see? How did it happen like that? He mixed himself with wrong people. Why are you having close friends that are not Christians? You are keeping friends who have no Christian vision. You sit down from morning till afternoon, talk and laugh, and talk and laugh, until your strength is gone. After such talk, the next thing will be to sleep. O sleeper! And when you sleep, you have labored in talk, you have labored to laugh, you will sleep deeply. You have gone to join a group of people who don’t have anything to do with Jesus. People who are not commissioned by God to do any service for Him. People who do not know anything about holy living. 


These are the people that have kept you occupied. You have gone to do business with them. You are now seeking money like them. You have joined the hassles for money. As a result, grey hair is here and there on your head. The upper side of you is Christian, but the lower part is something else. It is a cake not turned. The underneath is done, but the upper side is not done, because it is not turned. That is Ephraim – a cake not turned. Strangers have devoured his strength. The strangers you brought into your life have now devoured your strength. Brother, sister, you know them. As for our iniquities, we know them. Our sins and our transgressions are not hidden before us. You have been struggling, because you have mixed yourself with wrong people. Do something about it before it is too late. 2 Corinthians 6:15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? 


Thought for the day: Stay away from wrong companions to stay alive in Christ. 

Song for the day: I want to be like Daniel to follow Jesus Christ

Bible reading for the day: Proverbs 7-8; 1 Corinthians 14:21-40

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...
