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

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...
