LIBERTY TO SIN?
MEMORY VERSE
For, brethren, ye have been
called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by
love serve one another.
Galatians 5:13
READ
Galatians 5:13-15
Gal 5:13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty;
only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one
another.
Gal 5:14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word,
even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Gal 5:15 But if ye bite and devour one another, take
heed that ye be not consumed one of another.
MESSAGE
Operating in the
supernatural will naturally attract certain challenges. You cannot serve and
please God and Satan at the same time. Any time you please God, you displease
the devil. It is impossible for you to operate in the supernatural without
attracting the anger or fury of the kingdom of darkness. After Elijah brought
down fire from Heaven and killed all the 450 prophets of Baal, their grand
matron – Queen Jezebel resolved to kill him within
24 hours. The more you operate in the supernatural, the greater the attack from
the enemy. When a king wanted to arrest Elijah he sent three batches of
soldiers and their captains in quick succession, but when Elisha who had a
double portion of Elijah's Spirit, was to be arrested, a whole army platoon was
sent. Are you facing a band of soldiers or a whole army because of your
faithfulness in serving God? The Lord will deliver you.
Some people are
still putting their trust in the arm of flesh as regards security. Such are
only awaiting disappointment. How much can you pay a security guard for him to
die for you? Be connected with the supernatural of God today! When you begin to
operate in the supernatural, try and guard against these three things:
indiscipline, pride and immorality. Indiscipline is rife in Pentecostal
circles. We think that because we speak in tongues we can take liberty as
license to live without control. If you study the life of Samson, you will
realise that without discipline, you cannot go far in the things of the
Kingdom. Some younger ministers serving under senior ministers have suddenly
heard from God and have become general overseers so that nobody can oversee
them or call them to order. When some leaders are transferred by their
superiors, they will tell you they want to go and pray. Some workers and
ministers will be transferred to a new parish and they will say because God has
not spoken to them about the transfer, they will not go. They believe they are
right, not knowing they are simply living in disobedience. Also, watch against
pride. Never get to the point where no one can talk to you again. Lastly, watch
against immorality.
KEY POINT
Satan knows when
to send a few or his whole army to capture a believer. Do you know when to
resist individually and when to seek the support of others in resisting the
devil?
