TOPIC: DO NOT LEAD YOUR CONGREGATION AWAY FROM FAITH
TEXT: 2 KINGS 4: 1-7
SUNDAY JULY 9TH
Key verse: 2 Kings 4: 3 “Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few.”
Uncommon miracles can manifest occasionally through the Holy Ghost and should not become doctrines. However, some strange practices have come to stay and are moving from church to church. It is of the devil. They give you false testimonies of handkerchiefs and aprons. Note that when the Lord asked Moses to speak to the rod but he struck it instead, water actually came out for the people to drink but Moses missed the promised land because God was not been glorified. After all, without faith, it is impossible to please Him. Now that you are leading your congregation away from faith to substances and physical things, they can get healed, but you won’t go to the promised land because you have led the people away from the faith, from the hearing and prayer of faith, you have led them to physical things; Water has come for them to drink; material things but for the water of life they will not have it.
If you turn the people from faith in Christ to substances and remove them from the God that is pleased by faith, you will not go to the Promised Land. A convert from Olumba Olumba Obu cult was confessing to one of the Christian magazines. He said their leader distributes anointing oil on the last Saturday of every month in Calabar. That famous ministers go to a particular hotel to buy each bottle for fifty thousand Naira. When they come with it, they now say ‘Bring your own bottles of oil; they put little in them and then begin to do miracles for you. May the Lord deliver His Church
It is not everybody that has that type of oil but whether your own is groundnut oil or from Jerusalem, its use for miracles is an abuse. People have gone far in deception. They may say that this one is from Jerusalem. Do they believe in Jesus Christ in Jerusalem? Why do you think that things from there should be superior? I pray that the God of heaven will deliver His Church from the last days’ corruption and protect the remnant and make them pure for His glory in Jesus name, Amen.
Thought for the day: Keep looking unto Jesus, the Author and Perfecter of our faith
Song for the day: In the cross, in the cross…
Bible reading for the day: Job 40-42; Acts 15:22-41
