What should a Christian change?
May 3, 2013 - 1 Corinthians 7
Dear Saints,
Today we prayerfully Feast in 1 Corinthians 7. Paul said
that it is better no to be married.
However because of the temptation to sexual immorality, it is better
to be the husband of one wife.
Whatever your situation is when Jesus calls you stand in that
condition until the Holy Spirit leads you to change. We are not bound by God’s law to change our
life or body except for sin. “17 Only let each person lead the life that the
Lord has assigned to him, and to which God has called him. This is my rule in
all the churches. 18 Was anyone at the time of his call already circumcised?
Let him not seek to remove the marks of circumcision. Was anyone at the time
of his call uncircumcised? Let him not seek circumcision. 19 For neither
circumcision counts for anything nor uncircumcision, but keeping the
commandments of God.” 1
Corinthians 7:17-19 English Standard Version (ESV). This doesn’t mean that we stay ignorant of
God’s purpose for our lives. God wants
all or us to be prepared, man or women for the purpose he called each of us
for. “And this is the confidence that we have toward
him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. And if we
know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests
that we have asked of him.” 1
John 5:14-15 ESV. Notice the
verse said; “according to his will”.
How do we know if we are in God’s will when we are seeking
something? By prayer and study in
God’s Word we will learn to yield to the Holy Spirit. If a change glorifies Jesus you’re on the
right track.

“9 Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not
inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral,
nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, 10 nor
thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will
inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were some of you. But you were
washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus
Christ and by the Spirit of our God.” 1 Corinthians 7 ESV.

Where do thoughts lead?

Where do thoughts lead?
May 2, 2013 - 1 Corinthians 6
Dear Saints,
Today we prayerfully Feast in 1 Corinthians 6. Paul cautions
against going to law in heathen courts. If we the Saints are going to be judges of
angels isn’t it a wonder that we can’t settle our matters within the church?
Surely we can find someone in the church wise enough to make a judgment. Sins which are like cancer to the soul, if
lived and died in, they will keep us out of the kingdom of God. Our
bodies, which are the members of Christ, and temples of the Holy Ghost, must
not be defiled. “18 Flee from sexual immorality.
Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually
immoral person sins against his own body. 19 Or do you not know that your
body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You
are not your own, 20 for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your
body.” 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 English Standard Version (ESV). Am I talking out of church or do we know
what sin is? Sin is any act or thought that is contrary
to God that goes on unrepentant in a person’s life. “9 Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not
inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral,
nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, 10 nor
thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will
inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were some of you. But you were
washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus
Christ and by the Spirit of our God.” 1 Corinthians 6 ESV. Saints understand this we have been forgiven
of every sin we every committed when we repent and ask Jesus into our
life. If you were cleaned from cancer
would you try to get it back? No! Cancer kills the body just as sin kills our
spirit. Any believer who turns back to
their sin is likened to a dog turning back to its vomit. Our bodies are the temple of the Holy
Spirit, let’s not grieve Him. God has
a purpose for your life let’s avoid sinful thought, because that’s what leads
to the act of sinning. Enjoy Jesus’ righteousness,
yield to the Holy Spirit because that leads us to glory

“15 “If your brother sins against you, go and tell
him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have
gained your brother. 16 But if he does not listen, take one or two others
along with you, that every charge may be established by the evidence of two
or three witnesses. 17 If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the
church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as
a Gentile and a tax collector.” Matthew 18:15-17ESV.
