BEWARE OF THE TRADITIONS OF MEN

 For taking your time to study remain blessed. 

Topic: BEWARE OF THE TRADITIONS OF MEN  October Monday 19th

Text:  1 Corinthians 3:18-21

Key verse: Matthew 15:9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. 


Beware of some of the doctrines and traditions imposed on you by some so-called men of God demanding your unquestionable obedience. The Lord Jesus is saying those traditions will not take you to heaven. Some of these pastors already know that they are not going to heaven and they also know that by imposing their traditions on you, you will not enter heaven either. This is because you are doing the will of men and not the will of our heavenly Father. These pastors compel you to submit to traditions and rules that are clearly in conflict with the scriptures. They force you to live your life in total disobedience to the word of God. Even though such church leaders know that they are not going to heaven, they are just satisfied that they have authority over you and are happy that they exercise ungodly influence over your life. They make you subject to them and their teachings to deprive you of heaven. Knowing that they are not going to heaven, their sole objective is to use their authority to deprive you of heaven as well. They are hypocrites. Matthew 23:13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in. 


It is my fervent prayer that as you realize this problem, the Lord will deliver you today. He did not create you to live under the crushing weight of the traditions or doctrines of any church denomination. He did not create you to be trampled under foot by any man or any group of persons. He has not given any man the right to infringe on the rights and privileges you have to choose to obey the word of God. He created you for Himself and that you might glorify Him. He created you that you might show forth the praise of Him who called you out of darkness into the marvellous light of His Son. Before the Lord, every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess that Jesus is the Lord to the glory of God the Father, Amen.

My earnest prayer is that this message will be of tremendous benefit to you as you prayerfully and dedicatedly commit yourself to digesting and applying it to your life.

 

Thought for the day: God’s commandment overrides human rules and doctrines. 

Song for the day: All to Jesus I surrender

Bible reading for the day: 

Jeremiah 1-2; 2 Thessalonians 2

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...
