TOPIC : THE POWER OF PURITY

TEXT : I TIMOTHY 8-10

8 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.

9 This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation.

10 For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.

Apostle Paul said that godliness is profitable unto all things.

Godliness is a guarantee of God's presence in this present life and also in our eternal abode.

He said that godliness is profitable for all things.

What this means is that whatever you do, cultivate holiness and a consecrated life.

Holiness will shatter every locked door and melt every chain.

It frustrated the flames of fire and shuts the mouths of lions.

Holiness subdues both princes and nations.

Your purity is a rod that the enemy cannot stand nor ever gainsay.

God bless you.

With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.

Your case is not bigger than God.

May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Your Victory is already guaranteed

It is well, do not give up, with God all things  are possible

TEXT HEBREW 12:14-16

[14]Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

[15]Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;

[16]Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.

Have ever wondered why the Holy spirit referred to Esau as a fornicator?

Holy spirit knew the connection between gluttony and fornication.

They both refer to lack of control of one's self.

There is no fornicator who is not gluttonous.

Both of them are sponsored by the same spirit, lust.

Look at what the Bible said in Hebrews 12:17,

For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.

Lust cost him an eternal inheritance.

Lust is sin, sin is the intercourse between man and alien spirits.

Determine who owns your worship, let the same also own your body and your soul in Jesus mighty name.

God bless you.

With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.

Your case is not bigger than God.

May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen

Your Victory is already guaranteed

It is well, do not give up, with God all things  are possible

TEXT JOB 2:6-11

[6]Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.

[7]And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.

[8]And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?

[9]Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?

[10]Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.

[11]But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.

Job went through very horrifying situations.

He was brought to ground zero in everything.

What Job did not know was that there was a council meeting in Heaven where God boasted with him.

It was the boastings of God that implicated Job.

Life does consist of what you have but who you are.

Can God boast that in that office that even if every other person steals that you will not?

Can God boast that you will keep your body chaste and not throw it at him as a baite for marriage?

Can God trust you that your work in His house is genuine and not eye service?

Can God trust you that if He lifts you, you will remain humble?

Can God make a boast in who you are?

Selah.

God bless you.

With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.

Your case is not bigger than God.

May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

TEXT : JOB 29:12-17

[12]Because I delivered the poor that cried, and the fatherless, and him that had none to help him.

[13]The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me: and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.

[14]I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem.

[15]I was eyes to the blind, and feet was I to the lame.

[16]I was a father to the poor: and the cause which I knew not I searched out.

[17]And I brake the jaws of the wicked, and plucked the spoil out of his teeth.

Job was sharing the secrete of his greatness with us.

He summed it up as a result of his deliberate cultivation of righteousness which he wore as a robe.

We are therefore expected to feel naked whenever we get involved with sin and iniquity.

When we lie, steal, cheat and get involved in immorality, we become naked of divine clothing.

May you begin to work on yourself until you begin to live above sin in Jesus mighty name.

God bless you.

With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.

Your case is not bigger than God.

May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

TEXT. GENESIS 39:7-9

[7]And it came to pass after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph; and she said, Lie with me.

[8]But he refused, and said unto his master's wife, Behold, my master wotteth not what is with me in the house, and he hath committed all that he hath to my hand;

[9]There is none greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?

What many today would have seen as an opportunity and a ladder for rising is what Joseph saw as an insult and an arrow shot at his purity.

He saw it as an attempt to destroy his affinity with divinity.

He said, how can I do this great wickedness and sin against my God.

He was referring to a God that he knows very well.

Remember that Joseph was both a slave and a captive in Egypt but he refused to choose the easier wrong but chose the harder wrong.

He was in the prison for fourteen years, the power of purity released him as a prime minister and controller of the staff of bread in Egypt.

If Joseph had accepted the offer of portipher's wive to sleep with her, he would have been elevated to the level of chief servant in portipher's house.

Sin truly is a sinker of destinies.

I pray that the power of the Lord almighty will empower you to be able to live above sins in Jesus mighty name.

God bless you.

With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.

Your case is not bigger than God.

May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

TEXT DANIEL 1:8-9

[8]But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.

[9]Now God had brought Daniel into favour and tender love with the prince of the eunuchs.

Daniel was a captive and a slave in Babylon , but the bible said that he purposed in his heart that he will not defile himself.

His was a choice.

He had every reason to doubt the God of his fathers, Jehovah.

He could have accused Jehovah of His inability to protect them, but no, he didn't.

He would have seen his present condition as a miracle, then begin to swim in pleasure but no, he refused to defile himself.

There is this saying that when you get to Rome, you behave like the Romans, but not Daniel.

He would never lower his standard.

Babylon prides itself as one of the most corrupt civilizations ever but Daniel live there as a holy man.

Purity not only kept but elevated him.

He saw four kings and was adviser to these kings spanning over sixty five years.

He had not godfather in Babylon , but he remained relevant all through these years.

If you see the damage this your weak morals and compromises has done in your life, you would wish you never practiced iniquity.

God constantly forgives you, but you are still harvesting the consiquences and I don't know for how long.

Fear God.

God bless you.

With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.

Your case is not bigger than God.

May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

TOPIC : THE CREATIVE POWER OF PRAYER

TEXT  ISAIAH 53:4-5

[4]Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

[5]But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

The death of Jesus on the cross was a price paid in full for our health and healing.

Is God aware that you are sick?

God is aware but has done something about it. He is expecting you to enforce what He has done on your behalf.

Isaiah saw with his prophetic vision what God planned for His children as their rescue from sicknesses.

God does not see one sickness being bigger than the other.

The same price that was paid for cancer was paid for malaria.

All you need to do is to faithfully claim your healing and you will be healed, just remember that it's been paid for.

The bible declared in Matthew 8:17 "That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses".

Our healing is already procured for us, therefore keep enforcing by prayer what you have received in Jesus mighty name.

God bless you.

With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.

Your case is not bigger than God.

May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
