PURITY, A LIFE WITHOUT BLEMISH

God bless you for taking your time to study.

TOPIC: PURITY, A LIFE WITHOUT BLEMISH. 

TEXT: 1 THESSALONIANS 5:21 – 24 

MONDAY SEPTEMBER 5th

Key verse: 1 John 3:3 And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as He is pure. 
Purity means a state of being free from defilement. It is a life that pleases the Lord. Purity of heart enables one’s thoughts and desires to be pure according to God’s standards. Purity makes you careful, watching over yourself so that you will never allow sin in your life. Have you seen a pussy cat? When the pussy cat runs from here to there, it will stop and lick out the dust from its body. It checks its body to ensure no dirt is there. If you have a passion for purity you must check up on yourself now and then to ensure no blemish or sin is in you. Examine yourself daily. 
Purity and your eyes - As you walk on the street and see the nakedness on the street; you shouldn’t give it a second look or thought. Your eyes should be regulated; be determined not to sin with your eyes. “I made a covenant with mine eyes; why then should I think upon a maid?  Job 31:1. Your eyes must never watch pornography! They must never watch worldly entertainments. No, they cannot feast on evils on the television and internet.
Purity and the tongue - Control your speech and your tongue. Take care of what you say. “My lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit. Job 27:4. There must be purity in your tongue if you want to make heaven. Your tongue must be free from defilements. 
Purity and the ears - Take care of what you hear. Be careful because that which you hear can provoke you to wrong action. Therefore, check the report well. Check who gives that report. Are the reports true or false? 
Purity in the world: You must be careful so that the activities of the world do not overcome you. Watch over your life when it comes to money. Do not lust after the beauties of the world.  Beauty is vanity. Don't set your heart there. May the God of holiness keep you blameless and pure. 

Thought for the day: Only the pure in heart shall see the Lord.

Song for the day: Brethren, the road is very narrow, very narrow….

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

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...
