Bible Reading: 2 Corinthians 6:14-18
Special Verse: John 17:14
I have given them your word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. 15 I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one.
As we draw closer to the end of the age, we must understand that Jesus has promised to come back for a glorious church. There's a shaking and cleansing that is taking place. The Spirit of God is calling us to a place of separation from the world. This doesn't mean isolation and refusing to interact with unbelievers. He is urging us to separate ourselves from their mindset. Stop feeding your heart with the sewage the world is feeding on 24/7. We can no longer think and talk like them. If we do, we will have no power or glory.
The Bible should be our thought and talk, then shall we have good success. Our source for everything must be God not the world. We can turn the tide of sickness with feeding on the word. How many Christians do you know that have died of cancer or a car accident? Should it have been so? Is that what Jesus promised us in his word? Let us call a spade a spade because we have believed the world more than the Bible. We can no longer be as sick as unbelievers and tell them Jesus carried our sickness away. It is time to take our faith seriously and let it make a difference.
The word always works, however unbelief and doubt will hinder it. From today, make a quality decision to pay the price of staying in the word until you see victory and God's glory is revealed in you.
