“LEARN FROM PHILIP’S OBEDIENCE”

Saints of God Most High, hear God’s word for you today:

“However, those who were scattered announced the Good News of the Word wherever they went“(Acts 8:4).

Now those believers who were scattered abroad went about through the land from place to place preaching the glad tidings, the Word and the doctrine concerning the attainment of salvation through Christ in the kingdom of God.

LEARN FROM PHILIP’S OBEDIENCE (Acts 8:5-8)
When Philip was in Samaria, he had a very successful deliverance and healing ministry.
But beyond the glamour of his successful ministry, he remained humble and in contact with God.

Philip was not carried away by the wind of success and glamour. Rather his ultimate desire was to obey God, hear God’s instructions to him and to do the ultimate will of God at all times. Philip the evangelist was always ready to obey the absolute will of God.

His desire was to move to a new level of God’s divine call as revealed. Our problem today is that we are always holding on to that which works for today but excluding that which God wants us to graduate to.

ACTS 8:26-40. The angel of the Lord spoke to Philip to arise…… (Acts 8:26-31). Philip’s obedience had to be tested step by step. This is a lesson for us to learn.

Maybe there are some preachers, whom the Lord has instructed to preach on holiness / purity, character building and heavenly reality. But these ministers disobey because the above messages are not acceptable to the majority wishy – washy people of his congregation. Therefore, these ministers avoid such topics (Galatians 1:10).

We must not be afraid to speak as God’s oracles.
The subject of holiness / purity / repentance / character building and heavenly reality must not scare a true believer off. So sad that sometimes these topics make even the so-called committed church members to feel uncomfortable because of guilt.

Our global church leadership today lacks the disposition of Philip, the evangelist towards God. We lack the obedience / total commitment and vision of eternal programmes of God. Holiness / purity / obedience and heavenly reality are no more emphasized in our churches today because both leaders and members do not see the need for it at all.

We are only enjoying the fruits of the prosperity of the land but forget that it was the fruit of the ground of the land offered to God by Cain that revealed his true self.

TRUST AND OBEY THE LORD!

Somebody shout, AMEN HALLELUJAH!

Shalom and good morning.
