JESUS WANTS TO PURGE AND SANCTIFY HIS CHURCH
TEXT: John 3: 25-30
Key verse: John 3: 27 John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven.

Jesus did not want His gospel to be abused, that is why He said, “Father sanctify them. I am not physically with them in the world. If I were in the world, some of them will look at Me and hide, but I am not there for righteousness to flow freely.” That is what we desire of you brethren, among the Coordinators, Chapter leaders, Pastors and Teachers, Choir, Ushers, that you will be sanctified. 
If you are removed from the work, you will not have grudges against people. Your mind will be peaceful. Believe that God removed you for a reason, maybe God even showed the reason, you have no problem. This sinful nature is abusing the commission of holiness that God has given to us, to live in and preach. Our profession of holiness must be accompanied by transparent life of holiness and righteousness.

Due to this Adamic and carnal nature, people are withdrawing from God and His service. The Adamic nature and inward pollution and corruption need to be purged. Go back to God and say, “Lord I was sharpened in iniquity and sin did my mother conceive me. I have a body of sin. Purge me with hyssop, wash me and I will be whiter than snow. I want to be holy.

From today's reading text, John the Baptist escaped provocation of envy over the ministry of Jesus. People told him, “Do you know the other man you bore record of is baptizing more people than you?” They wanted to make John envious but he said, “He shall increase but I will decrease”. It takes sanctification of heart to say this. This is Holiness. When Jesus came to the world, did He manifest any sin in his life? He wants you to be like that. He does not want you to interfere with the Holy Spirit.

Thought for the day: As the sinner comes to Jesus for forgiveness, so the believer should also come back to Him for sanctification. 
Song for the day: Create in me a clean heart O Lord, and renew a right spirit….
Bible reading for the day:  Isaiah 65-66; 2 Thessalonians 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...
