WATCH OUT FOR THE DEVIL IN THESE TEACHINGS

WATCH OUT FOR THE DEVIL IN THESE TEACHINGS

Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

In other translations, the word “substance” in our opening scripture is translated assurance, confidence, sure and certain. These are very important words. It implies that faith gives you assurance, confidence and certainty. Hence any teaching that does not make you certain and confident about the things of God is not faith hence unscriptural.

The devil we are dealing with is a subtle and cunning fellow. If you are ignorant of his devices and schemes, you will fall flat for his lies and become a victim. One strategy satan uses most against God’s people is “the questioning of what God had said thus putting man in a place of doubt and uncertainty about God’s word”. Look at what he said to Eve in the Garden of Eden:

NOTES AND COMMENTARIES ARE NOT THE SAME AS THE SCRIPTURES

John 17:17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.

The word of God is truth. There is no other truth apart from God’s word. The Bible is a collection of truths from the breath of God. Any teaching that’s not consistent with scripture is not truth. Jesus said, Thy word is truth.

Some folks in the body of Christ think that commentaries and notes in a Bible are equal to scriptures. No. They are not. Notes and commentaries are man’s understanding of the Bible which could be accurate or inaccurate. God’s authority is the scriptures and not the commentaries of men.

Mark 1:35 And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.

Faith gives you certainty. Anything that has no certainty does not have the element of faith in it. By saying that, I mean you can actually have a glorious day in each day of the week, month and year. This is not a myth; it is a reality. Scripture says, the path of the just is as the shining light; shining brighter and brighter until the perfect day (Proverbs 4:18).

THE PROPHET WHO DIED BROKE

THE PROPHET WHO DIED BROKE

2 Kings 4:1 Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant did fear the Lord : and the creditor is come to take unto him my two sons to be bondmen.

This is one of the most pathetic stories in the Bible: a Prophet of God who died broke and left debt for the family to pay; and the creditor threatened to take his two sons as slaves to pay for a debt they did not owe. Sad! Sad! Sad! Poverty is cruel. Don’t let it get a hold of you. Poverty stinks and makes men undignified. What are you going to leave for your children? Have you given it a thought?
