THE THE THE USE OF MEDICATION IS NOT WRONG 

TEXT: JEREMIAH 8: 21-22

Key verse: Jeremiah 8:22 Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there? 

why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?


May God bathe His people with answers left and right, front and back, up and down, in Jesus name Amen. All cases of barrenness and delay in childbearing should be taken to the Lord in prayer. It is not wrong to seek medical assistance or to use medication, both conventional and herbal, but you must not adopt evil alternatives of seeking after wizards for help. Do not fall into the hands of some people who claim that believers must not use medication. 


Such are deadly churches because many die prematurely and go to hell from those places. Professing faith in God for healing will not remove the unchangeable requirement of holiness and righteousness for entrance into heaven. These people have faults in their lives and are deprived of taking medicines that God made available to humanity in His imparted wisdom. Some even claim that it is a sin to take drugs. That is untrue and unscriptural.

Do people trek from their villages, towns, States and Nations to the Holiness Campground in Abuja to attend Conferences there? No. Usually, they come by vehicles, trains, aeroplanes and other forms of automobiles. It is God that gave man the wisdom and knowledge to invent easier and faster means of transportation. Will it be wise to teach that we should reject the use of aeroplanes and vehicles and travel by faith, maybe to pray that God should transport us supernaturally to the Campground the same way Philip the evangelist was transported to Azotus, not at all! We have to obey the law of mobility. 


Similarly, nothing stops you from using medication that God has graciously provided for the good of humanity. Somebody may suggest a herbal remedy for treating malaria by drinking boiled extract from leaves of mango, guava and lemon. Again someone recommended the use of lime, garlic and ginger to clear offensive body odour. There is no sin in this.  


Thought for the day: God graciously provided medicines for good of humanity. 

Song for the day: Jehovah touched my life with His hands, my life changed…

Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 29-31; James 5

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
