NO LONGER IN UNRIGHTEOUSNESS

Text :1 Corinthians  6:9-10

Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.* 

It is very important for you to always take God's word seriously and to consider every bit of it closely.

God meant every bit of inspiration and instruction He has given  us through his Prophets and Apostles. One of such inspirations and instructions is what we have in our study text.

It is clearly and explicitly stated in God's word that the unrighteous shall not inherit God's kingdom. This is quite scary when you closely consider the list that makes up the unrighteous. You will realize that though you have confessed Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord, yet you may likely fall within the list that makes up the unrighteous. This ought not to be. 

You must therefore stand in your position as the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. (2 Corinthians. 5:21). When you stand in this position in knowledge and in understanding, you shall truly be free from all forms of  unrighteousness that lay hold on fornicators,  idolaters or adulterers,  homosexuals,  sodomites, thieves,  covetous, drunkards,  revilers,  extortioners.

The scripture made it clear that you were like the above before, *but you were washed, you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.* 

Hence, you must walk in the newness of life far away from unrighteousness.

 *BIBLE READING* : 

1 Corinthians 6:10-11.

 *PRAYER FOCUS* 

Father God, help me to continually walk in the newness of life in Jesus name.

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...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

IN MY NAME.

Text : Mark 16:17-18  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. Having believed in the gospel (Good news of the resurrection of Jesus and His victory over Sin, Satan and Death), you now need to start using the name of Jesus authoritatively. JESUS said that in His name you shall cast out devils; you shall speak with new tongues; you shall take up serpents; and if you drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt you; you shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. This means that you will undertake all these in the authority of Jesus' name. No matter how small or powerless you may think you are in your own eyes. Once you believe in His name, you shall do all that He promised.   Unbelief was the sin that Israelites committed that wasted a whol...
