PERILOUS TIME


Text:  2 Timothy 3:1 

This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come . 

The perilous(difficult) time which Apostle Paul wrote about is already here. Perilous times are times characterize by Gross disobedience to God. The devil knows that he has but short time before his final  judgement, hence he is working hard to kill, steal and destroy. Rev. 12:12, John 10:10

The features and signs  of the last days are vividly pointed out in the scripture(2Tim 3:2-8)

People will love only themselves and their money.

 *They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God,disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful* .

 *They will consider nothing sacred* .

 *They will be unloving and unforgiving; they will slander others and have no self-control.*

 *They will be cruel and hate what is good* .

 *They will betray their friends, be reckless, be puffed up with pride, and love pleasure rather than God.* 

 *They will act religious, but they will reject the power that could make them godly* . 

Paul sternly warned that you stay away from people exhibiting such as mentioned above. And if you are caught in the web of these perilous times features, then you need to ask God to help and deliver you.

..Stay away from people like that! 2Tim 2:5

Let me say to you that Paul was not writing to unbelievers. He was not saying that Timothy and the church should stay away from unbelievers. Rather, he was referring to those inside the church. He mentioned  that these people will *act religiously, but they will reject the power that could make them godly* 2Tim 3:5

The Lord will have you check your life today for proper adjustment.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

BEWARE OF DOGS

Text :  Philippians 3:2. Beware of the dogs! Beware of the evil workers! Beware of the mutilators! Usually, when you see the inscription "BEWARE OF DOGS", you instantly know there's a wild or trained dog around the corner, hence, the need to beware.  However, when God says 'Beware of dogs,' He wasn't actually referring to dogs as in 'animals' but to animals in human skin. Note that this caution was given to believers against other so-called  believers.  That is, some people within the church that we refer to as brothers and sisters are actually operating in the capacity of dogs.Though fellow worshippers in the church are called brothers and sisters, but if they behave like wild animals, know that they are dogs in humans skin- BEWARE. Matthew  7:6 says *Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.*  Essentially, dogs don't have capacity to r...
