Be Holy

TOPIC
Be Holy

LIVING SCRIPTURE
1 Peter 1:15-16 KJV
But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; [16] Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.





Holiness is peculiar to the LORD our God and that is the same nature He shares with the church of Christ. God is not dressed in Holiness because He wants to show off like the pharisees, who appear holy but are actually the worst and the opposite of Holiness. God is holy within and without to the point that it is impossible for Him to utter a tiny lie. The bible records that His word is yes and Amen! His thoughts are purity itself and every word He says comes to pass.

Jesus Christ also walked in like manner because He believed in the ways of truth and holiness of the Father, not because he came from heaven. There are many today and in time past who were privileged to be born in families of Servants of God but they never believed in truth and holiness. Such like; the children of Eli (Hophni and Phinehas) - Samuel - 1 Samuel 8:1-3 KJV
And it came to pass, when Samuel was old, that he made his sons judges over Israel. 
[2] Now the name of his firstborn was Joel; and the name of his second, Abiah: they were judges in Beer-sheba. 
[3] And his sons walked not in his ways, but turned aside after lucre, and took bribes, and perverted judgment.

Holiness is not in our physical dressing but in the dressing of our hearts and minds by the help of the Holy Spirit. We need the vine dresser to prune us. Joseph the Son of Jacob practiced the ways of holiness and we see the outcome of his thoughts, conversations and actions.


TO-DO
Practice Philippians 4:8 daily..


PRAYER
Heavenly Father I need your Holy Spirit, I want to live a holy life.


DECLARATION OF FAITH:
When men are saying it is a casting down,
As for me and my household, it is a lifting up,
This is my year of I am a living wonder,
And my month of I am helped, Lifted & Made Strong,
I am an expression of God's grace, 
A wealthy Taborite, A celebrity in the class of kingdom celebrities,
The Father's Desire is my desire,
As for me, soul winning is my priority,
It does not matter, what is the matter,
I shall matter where it matters most.
God bless my pastor's & God bless me too,
Tabor family! A people favored by God.

The Narrow Path

DATE : September 12, 2021 TOPIC : The Narrow Path BIBLE TEXT: Matthew 7v13&14 – Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in there at: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. The road to eternity is a narrow path, with a single choice. There are no alternatives into eternity. It is either you walk through the narrow way into heaven or you follow the broad path that leads men (souls) to hell fire. God sent His only Son to die for mankind, creating the way, the truth and the life, to all who believe in Christ Jesus. It is either you make a choice to follow Jesus or you walk straight into hell. Many are searching for this path in the wrong direction, places, traditions, customs, beliefs and religions but cannot find it there. Only those that hear about the Kingdom of Heaven coming soon and believe in Jesus Christ shal...

IT RUBS OFF

AUGUST 9th - CAPSULE 9 TOPIC: IT RUBS OFF BIBLE TEXT: Exodus 34 vs. 29 – His face glowed from being in the presence of God. You can only talk convincingly about the God you know, the one you’ve spent time with. Any other God belongs in a theology book, and you will have a hard time selling Him. When Moses came down from the mountain, his face shone. He had been in God’s presence, and when you’ve been there it shows in the way you look, the way you walk and talk, the way you treat your family, the way you spend your money and the way you respond to hurting people. It rubs off!   Paul Cain says “most of us are as close to God as we want to be”. Think about it “Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you” (James 4 vs. 8). How could you possibly be the same when you’ve been with Him? He transforms everything He touches. Listen – He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty” (Psalm 91 vs. 1). He didn’t say “visit” or...

The Good Slow

DATE 📅 19th September, 2022 TOPIC The Good Slow LIVING SCRIPTURE Habakkuk 2:3 KJV For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. A mango tree starts from a seed planted in the soil, from a mango fruit. It usually takes weeks or sometimes days for the leaves to grow or sprout and then it takes years before it can produce those edible mango fruits which we all like to chew. Likewise a young child cannot start behaving like a grown man or handling responsibilities automatically. Just like the fruits that once started as a seed, so is the LORD'S work everyday for His children if only we believe that it is settled. To tarry is to delay a thing or a matter, but the Lord said, it will surely come to pass it will no longer delay. Sometimes we experience the tarrying process and many think God is slow and not responsive to their needs. Many seek out alternati...
