Holiness Gives Deliverance And Protection To The Righteous

Text: Daniel 6: 16 – 26

Thursday June 20th

Key verse: Daniel 6: 18 “Then the king went to his palace and passed the night fasting; neither were instruments of music brought before him and his sleep went from him.”
Holiness gives deliverance and protection to the righteous from the schemes of men and wiles of the devil. By holiness you will be protected. Suppose Daniel was a hypocrite and only convinced this king that he was a man of God, will the prayer of the king be answered? No! God will not deliver a hypocrite. The king would have been confused. “Ah! God did not save this man despite the way he served God?” Many professing Christians confuse people and give a wrong image of God to people who are not aware of their hypocrisy and insincerity. You are not on the highway of holiness but you pretend to be and the people think really you are. When mishaps come upon you, they begin to wonder why. Why is God like that? But Daniel was sincere so the king’s prayer really came to pass.
Take note of word, ‘continually’ in our text. Not intermittently because some of you are not consistent. You are there today but you are not there tomorrow. Daniel served God continually, in sunshine and in rain. The holy life is at every circumstance. Not only when it is convenient; do not say it is too difficult, let me lie here. No! Even to the point of death. By the way who has the key of death? God has it. If he wants you to die, then die. Paul said, if I have done anything worthy of death, I refuse not to die. Otherwise, the Hebrews children said, “God is able to deliver us from your hand, O king.” God delivered them from death as they continued in righteousness. 
God saved Daniel by closing up the mouths of the lions. He sent an angel to care for him. That is what the Lord will do for a holy and righteous man. Holiness is a highway that ravenous beasts do not disturb the people on that way. The lions shall not roar there to disturb the people walking on that way because it is the way of God. 

Thought for the day: Holiness delivers the righteous from schemes of men and Satan

Song for the day: We are victorious, yes, we are victorious …

Bible reading for the day: Psalms 81-88

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...
