TOPIC: DESIRED QUALITIES OF WORKERS IN HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE (1)

TEXT: PSALM 15:1-5
1. LORD, who shall abide in Thy tabernacle? Who shall dwell in Thy holy hill?
2. He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.
3. He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, Nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour. 
4. In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; But he honoureth them that fear the LORD. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.
5. He that putteth not out his money to usury, Nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.

KEY VERSE: PSALM 15:1 Lord, who shall abide in Your tabernacle? Who shall dwell on Your holy hill? 

A minister or a worker in the vineyard of God is not defined by the skills he or she possesses, not by what he or she performs in the church, but by who he or she is. God looks at the heart. He considers the state of your being. True worship is not by fleshly performance but by the ministration via the soul that is genuine, pure, and cleansed unto the Lord. 

A minister of God must, therefore, be born again. His soul must be regenerated. There must be a clear proof of repentance observable in his or her life. There must be a clear-out of the way of life before and after the new birth experience. There must be a definite date and possible record of time when the new birth experience took place, just like having a record of the date of birth or birthday date. 

This is the reason why it is a prerequisite for anyone who wants to join any work force in the movement to practically submit a write-up in details of his or her new birth experience. Anyone who cannot provide his or her evidence cannot be allowed to serve.

Secondly, a minister in the Holiness Movement must be sanctified. He or she must have a second, definite experience of grace by the Holy Spirit in the heart. A manifestation that removes the works of the flesh now crucified. This is attained through faith and fervent prayers. The Holy Spirit has practically taken over their spirit, soul, and body. These are people who have lost control of their lives to the full guidance and leadership of the Holy Spirit. 

Jesus is now the Lord of their lives. Their tongues cannot speak lies anymore. Their eyes cannot be given to lust. Pride has lost its value in their lives. Anger and murmuring have no place in them anymore. These people can now lift up holy hands in the tabernacle of God and offer acceptable services. Brethren, our services in the church of Christ must not be a waste. We must keep examining ourselves to ensure we are fit as worthy worshippers of the Holy God. Amen.

Thought for the day: The angels in heaven who are key worshippers are holy.

Song for the day: Create in me a clean heart, oh Lord...".

Bible reading for the day: Isaiah 38-40

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...

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...
