Seek Your Freedom


Anchor Scripture: “Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.” John 8: 39

Further Reading: Joshua 24: 14 – 15; John 8: 31 – 36; Romans 6: 15 – 23;

Admonition 
One of the things I found so amazing in Christianity today is that we Christians are making a mockery of the basic tenets of our faith. Christians today are ignoring what they should take very seriously, but taking very seriously, things that should be ignored.
What I am saying, in essence, is that we Christians today deceive ourselves too much. Many church leaders are masters in deceits and crafts; they are like the Pharisees of old, washing the outside clean, but leaving the inside dirty (Mat. 23: 25 – 26).
You see brethren, most times when prayer points are called, I just laugh. You know why? It is because we are not sincere with God. Hear this and hear it well, man is not a slave to witches and wizards, nor any principalities and powers. THE ONLY THING MAN IS A SLAVE TO IS SIN. It is sin that makes a man vulnerable to these satanic messengers.
But Proverbs 16: 7 says “When a man's ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.” God has power over all powers and principalities to keep them quiet if we yielded ourselves unto Him. But as long as we dwell in sin, those powers will continue to dominate us because we are a slave to sin which happens to be their motivator/driver, and from which, they derive their legitimacy to torment man.

Brethren, no one who wants to FINISH STRONGLY with God will remain a slave to sin by continuing to commit sin. Apostle Paul admonished that sin should no longer be our master. It is not bad to have walked, wallowed and even lived in sin in the past, but it is worst to continue in it.
Therefore, on a final note, to FINISH STRONGLY with God, we must seek our freedom from sin. Stop seeking deliverance from witches and wizards, BUT SEEK DELIVERANCE FROM SIN for until you’re free from sin, you can’t be free from witches, wizards, principalities and powers!

Till tomorrow when we shall meet again on this beautiful journey of FINISHING STRONG together, keep keeping on in Him!

Yours in Him,

AVOID CONDEMNATION: Walk in the Spirit

Anchor Scripture: Romans 8: 1 “ There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.”  Focus Scripture: “ This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. ” –Galatians 5: 16 Scripture References: John 3: 1 – 8, 16 - 19; Romans 1: 18 – 32, 1 – 14; Galatians 5: 16 – 26; 1 John 2: 15 - 17 Admonition Greetings from the Throne of Grace! Yesterday, the Holy Spirit of God admonished us to watch the companies we keep because our association with them could make us do things that are contrary to the Kingdom’s choice. And an example was given of Jehoshaphat. May God help us in Jesus name, amen. Today, we are being told to “Walk in the Spirit”. The Holy Spirit was given to us as Guardian to help and keep us in and on the way to the Kingdom. The Holy Spirit is a teacher, meant to teach us right from wrong and He helps us in making the right choices. Most of...

AVOID CONDEMNATION: Stop Impersonating

Anchor Scripture: Romans 8: 1 “ There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.”  Focus Scripture: “ For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness .” – Romans 1: 18 Scripture References: Matthew 7: 21 - 23; John 1: 12 – 13, 3: 1 - 7; Acts 19: 1 – 6, 11 – 20; Romans 1: 18 – 32; 2 Corinthians 13: 4 - 10 Admonition Greetings from the Throne of Grace! Our God is good and gracious towards us in that He has hidden nothing about Himself from us. Everything we need to know about Him; Who He is, what He did in the past, what He plans to do in the future, how He thinks, His dispositions to various issues and so on, He has revealed to us in His Word, the Holy Bible, and we know His Word is TRUE. The Holy Spirit mentioned on Wednesday that many Christians live on the assumption that they are born-ag...

BEWARE OF BALAAM'S DOCTRINE

Anchor Scripture: “. . . Verily when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.” – 1 Corinthians 9: 18 Scripture References: Numbers 22: 1 – 7; 1 Corinthians 9: 1 –27; Matthew 10: 7 - 8 The Balaam’s doctrine is it that encourages children of God to do the work of God for carnal rewards. And the children of God caught up in the web of Balaam’s doctrine are those who preach the Gospel of Christ for one reward or the other. Such “servants of God” use a lot of scriptures to spiritualize and legalize their collections of material and carnal rewards from the congregation. However, we thank God for servants of God like Apostle Paul, who really followed the teachings of our Lord, Jesus Christ, in that he refused to abuse the authority he had over his congregations by which he could have become rich and wealthy as many of our ministers today, for Jesus Christ commanded in Matthew 10: 7 - 8 thus: “ And as ye go, pre...
