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.

NEITHER HEIGHT NOR DEPTH

Date - December 28th, 2021 Topic - NEITHER HEIGHT NOR DEPTH Bible Text - For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. - Romans 8:38-39 Your parents love you. You may be able to do something that makes them angry, but you will never be able to do anything that makes them stop loving you. Try to imagine this kind of love and then multiply it by infinity. That’s the love that Jesus has for you. That’s the love that God has for you. God made you. He loved you enough to create you. He loved you enough to give you free will. Then he loved you enough to give you his Son. He loved you enough to forgive you for turning away from him. This is an impossible love! This is a love that we may never understand. But we don’t have to understand it. We just have to a

God's Security

DATE 27th January, 2023 TOPIC God's Security LIVING SCRIPTURE Exodus 13:21 KJV And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night: Security has been of prime importance to man after the fall of man from glory. The need for spiritual and physical security became a priority due to the rapid increase in crime and violence caused by man's sinful nature and the devil's influence on vulnerable souls. Some people go as far as fortifying themselves with charms and native concussion while other trust in gadgets and technology and the government to protect their lives and properties. And it was not so in the beginning when God created Adam and Eve. The Lord placed man in a garden (a peaceful serene environment) there was absolutely no reason to be afraid or the thought of thieves because the Lord was their security officer. Man fell and the hearts and intents of ma

Christ is not far!

DATE 22nd June, 2023 TOPIC Christ is not far! LIVING SCRIPTURE John 14:16-17 KJV And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;  [17] Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. Jesus Christ came to save us and that we might be one just as He and the Father in Heaven are one. He is not far from those who believe in Him and His words but still many look to the sky or climb high mountains to find the Lord who sits gloriously in our hearts by His Spirit and Words. His words says that the comforter will dwell (continually live in) you and not just that but He will also be with you. He is within and without us in covering and inspiration. Seek not Jesus that is far but He that is closer to your heart and by your confessions daily. TO-DO Call on Him this morning from your hearts and worship and fellowship in the
