DONT DRAW BACK 2

-


Text: Hebrews 10:39 


 *But we are not of those who draw back to perdition, but of those who believe to the saving of the soul.* 


The moment a man gets born again, he has started a whole new journey into eternity. Being born again is not an end in itself. And being born again is not a tittle, it is an event that gives you the license to walk on the pathway to eternal life. 


Jesus said in John 3:3 that *except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.* That is, anyone who isn't born again lacks the understanding of what the kingdom of God is.

However,  it's one thing to have understanding of a thing, it's another thing to experience it.

To experience the kingdom of God,  you must journey with God. 


It's possible to draw back from the faith into perdition after one had been born again. That's why we are enjoined as God's children to hold fast that sound words we have received lest it slipped. 


Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. 2 Timothy 1:13.


 *Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.* Hebrews  2:1 


You are not of those who draw back to perdition, so work out your salvation with fear and trembling.  Phil. 2:12. 


 *PRAYER FOCUS* 


1. Father,  give me grace to hold on to the end and never to draw back unto perdition.



 *Bible Reading:*  Hebrews 10:32-39.

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 portraying the nature of God here on earth.  2 Peter  1:

PRAYING MEN

Text : 1Timothy 2:8. I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting. God gave explicit instructions to all of His children as to how we must live our lives. Some of these instructions cut across boards, of which all of God's children must obey. However, there are some instructions that are specific to gender or portfolios. We we'll be looking at some of these instructions today.  *THE MEN* From our text, there are two distinct responsibilities God wants men to undertake, and the two are intertwined. First, God wants men to pray. The word  'men' as used in our text is not generic as to mean all human beings. It is specifically requesting that all men should pray. Yes, God expects every of His children to pray, but He specifically called men out here.  A number of times,  when prayer meetings are called, the proportion of women in attendance always outnumbered men. This is because the devil knows the import of praying men.

BE CALM & LISTEN-3

Text: 1 Kings 19:12 "...and after the earthquake a fire, [but] the LORD [was] not in the fire; and after the fire a still small voice" Prophet Elijah fled after he received the life threatening message from Jezebel, the wife of King Ahab, because he didn't keep himself calm before the Lord.  *Endeavouring to listen to God in difficult times is a major prerequisite to your deliverance.*  Are you faced with a life threatening situation like Prophet Elijah, the first and most important thing you need to do is: "Set yourself before the Lord for His still small voice."  *"You will be saved from many unwarranted troubles if only you will always maintain your calm before the Lord and listen to Him."*  After Prophet Elijah heard the still small voice, then the Lord asked him, "What are you doing here?" This question shows that Prophet Elijah had left his rightful location and God-given assignment.  The windstorm he saw, revealed that he has been blow
