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

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...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
