SANCTIFICATION IS REQUIRED TO ENTER HEAVEN

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: SANCTIFICATION IS REQUIRED TO ENTER HEAVEN

TEXT: EPHESIANS 5: 25-27  

FRIDAY MAY 5th 

Key verse: 1 Thessalonians 5: 22 “Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.”
As Jesus prayed, He said, “Thine they were, and You have given them to Me. They have become mine.” He said this before he died showing that those, He was praying for to be sanctified, were already believers. This was because the sacrifice for believers' sanctification was included in the redemptive plan of the Cross. The cross is first a sacrifice for sinners’ salvation, then a sacrifice for believers’ sanctification.
You have married already just as He has gotten the Church already to Himself and gave Himself for it. He died for them so that He might sanctify them. It means to give you a step above salvation requires appropriating the benefits of the death of Christ. To bring you to holiness requires the application of the victory through the death of Christ. It is an experience of righteousness that removes carnality. You are sanctified so that you can be clean and holy without blemish or any such thing. That is God's desire for you, and He is ready to do it for you.
You may be a Christian, but you are stubborn, yet you do not know why. The Bible says, “Consider them that minister among you and esteem them very highly in love.” This is not in you because there is something that looks stony in your heart. You know that you lack real respect, appreciation, and gratitude toward leadership. This is the reason why when the leader gives you an assignment, you may not do it because the real fear and reverence for him is not in your heart. Your heart is dry, but you profess to be born again. This is a clear manifestation of Adamic nature. Take yourself back to God to get those things removed. He will give you a heart of flesh.

Thought for the day: Sanctification makes your heart feel real compassion, love, obedience, care, and submission. 

Song of the day: Sanctify me, Lord, purify me, Lord…

Bible reading for the day: 1 Kings 10-11; Luke 24:1-35

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...
