TOPIC: DO NOT MISINTERPRET THE GOOD WORKS OF GOD
TEXT: 1TIMOTHY 4: 1, 3- 5
SATURDAY NOVEMBER 25TH
Key verse: Proverbs 17: 22 A merry heart doeth good like a medicine:
This tells us that medicines do good. The scriptures show that medicines do good to mankind. Isaiah 5:20 20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! It is not out of place in the Scripture to say; my son, take medicine, for medicine is good, just as the Scripture also says, my son, eat thou honey, for honey is good. If the Bible calls honey a good thing and somebody comes and forbids the eating of honey; saying do not eat honey, the same Bible says, woe to that man. The person who says, do not eat honey, it is evil, is saying, that what God says is good is not really good, but evil. That was what Satan told Eve and Adam in the garden to destroy them. Such a person is satanic. Hence, churches that preach against the use of medicines by the sick are doing great evil.
The devil interferes a lot among mankind to turn them off from that which is good by naming it evil, especially in the church, to the point that some creation of God, beautiful as it is, given for human benefit, Satan would come and say they are evil; or he passes through some preachers, some religious men, to lay a bad name on a good thing. Medicine has suffered many attacks. Many people have come up to say it is a sin to take medicine, or in fact, that those people who take medicine will go to hell because it shows they do not have faith in Jesus. That is a doctrine of the devil. The scripture says that medicine is good. The Bible says that God created all things good for our use with prayer and thanksgiving. He created it to be received by believers. They who believe and know the truth receive it with thanksgiving. Your prayer over it sanctifies and purifies it. As you use it, bless God and be happy for His wisdom. Maybe there are people that up till now do not use the handset, because when mobile phones came new, some people said it must have something to do with Satan: “How can you call somebody far away and speak to him unconnected?”
Thought for the day: People always misinterpret the good works of God.
Song for the day: How excellent is Your name, O Lord
Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 34-35; 1 Peter 2
