BE YE NOT UNEQUALLY YOKED
To be unequally yoked is teaming up with some people. The bible says Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers, for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion hath light with darkness? We as believers are not to team up with unbelievers, because there is no harmony between Christ and the devil; neither is there no association between light and darkness. Many missed the way of salvation as a result of their unbeliever’s friend. The proverb says evil communication corrupt, good manners. Many are influenced by group of people they mingle and interact with. The bible says: And what union can there be between GOD’s temple and idols? For you are GOD’s temple, the home of the living GOD therefore shouldn’t be yoked with anyone that has idol in the heart; because before you know it, you start worshipping and harbouring idols. Where there is darkness before, when a light shines forth; the darkness disappear. We as children of light are to separate ourselves from any form of darkness. The devil has his children, the sons of belial; as Christians we are not to be seen in harmony of the children of belial. The bible said by their fruits, you shall know them. So you will surely know them when you see them, there should be no harmony with them. For we are not the same. They do not believe in GOD, they only believe in the devil; that is why we are not to enjoy doing what they do nor relate with them.
However, many so called artistes are sons of belial, we are not to be yoked with them listening to their songs and viewing them has a lot to do in our lives. Be ye not unequally yoked together with them. When you listen to their songs, you are unequally yoked with them. Many also in the name of fashion wear what the sons of belial wear, you are part of them. We are not part of them and should separate ourselves totally from all activities of the sons of belial; we are children of the most high, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, peculiar people are we to show forth GOD’s goodness and glory. He has brought us from darkness unto marvelous light. Be ye not unequally yoked with the unbelievers. Halleluyah……..
RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY Integrity is a word which means steadfast adherence to a strict moral or ethical code. It also means the quality or condition of being complete and pure. It could also mean honesty, uprightness, purity, sincerity, decency, virtuous and wholeness. To retain is to keep in possession and maintain something. Many a time people find it difficult retaining their integrity. It takes determination to stand on your integrity. Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. GOD is a lover of men of integrity. Daniel 1 vs. 8-9: But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. Now GOD had brought Daniel into favor and tender love wi...
