SANCTIFICATION COMES AFTER SALVATION

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: SANCTIFICATION COMES AFTER SALVATION

TEXT: PSALM 51: 1-3 

SATURDAY JUNE 10TH 

KEY VERSE: Psalm 51: 6 “Behold thou desirest truth in the inward parts, and in the hidden part thou shall make me to know wisdom”
Note that there are two types of sins: The actual sins which you are responsible for and the nature of sin that is inherited from Adam. These can be seen clearly from the prayer of David for forgiveness, restoration, and inward cleansing. Psalm 51: 1 “Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy loving kindness, according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies, blot out my transgressions”. This means the transgressions are many. One of the transgressions was the immoral act David committed. Another one was that he sent to kill Uriah. These are actual sins and he is asking God for forgiveness, not sanctification. The sinner and the backslider are to come to God for forgiveness. 
Sanctification comes after you have been forgiven and have become a believer. It is then you take your heart back to God for sanctification. David goes further to tell us about the second kind of sin. This type of sin requires sanctification. Lord, I backslid and sinned, restore me again. Forgive me, Lord, purge me again. He has gone further to ask for sanctification. In verse 5, he introduced the second kind of sin. Psalm 51: 5 “Behold I was sharpened in iniquity and in sin did my mother conceived me.” 
David mentioned these sins. This was the same thing Jesus prayed for even after his disciples have been with him for three and half years, he said they were no more of the world because they have received the word of God, he said sanctified them because of this Adamic nature which David made reference to that gives rise to sin, actual and committed sin. In salvation, you are empowered against committed sin, but you can sin once in a while. You can fall and wonder what happened to you. There is an inner tension within which is also called the body of sin. God desires truth right inside. He wants to see through you but this inbred sin in man is a pollution that must be taken away. 

Thought for the day: Sanctification comes after salvation 

Song for the day: What can wash away my sins, nothing but the blood of Jesus

Bible reading for the day: 2 Chronicles 32-33; John 18:24-40

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...

I wish My children, whilst upon earth, to live more and more with Me in “the heavenly places”. Here, there is no fear or hurry or fret of spirit.
