BEWARE OF DOGS

Text :  Philippians 3:2. 

Beware of the dogs! Beware of the evil workers! Beware of the mutilators!

From our text, we are admonished to be careful of three things :

1.) Dogs

2.) Evil workers 

3.) Multilators.

Note that one person can play these three hideous roles simultaneously. 

It is dangerous to intermingle with dog-like people in the house of God. This is why you are forewarned to beware.

However, it is more dangerous to be the "dog" among brethren. Hence, the need to take heed. (1 Cor. 10:12).

Habitually, dogs alway go back to 

Its vomit. (2 Peter 2:22). If after you have been washed from your past dirty  life by His word and His blood and you later go back to this way of life, you are behaving like a dog and you are dangerous to yourself and the people around you.

Those who behave like dogs will eventually graduate into evil workers and then into mutilators. 

To mutilate is to destroy beyond recognition. Some people are so skilled in the act of character assassination so much so that only God can vindicate you, may you not fall into their traps.


So if the word of God says to you to be aware of such people, the onus is on you to indeed Beware. 

Bible Reading: Philippians 3:1-11.

PRAYER FOCUS

1.) Father God, deliver me from evil men that act like a brother.

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...
