Dirty Mind in a Christian? 20 Steps for Your Perfect Cleansing!

Dirty Mind in a Christian? 20 Steps for Your Perfect Cleansing!

Dirty mind in a Christian is synonymous to a dog going back to its throw-up. Filthy mind occurs when you long to have sexual intimacy with an opposite sex you see. A perverted heart is unholy!

If you are presently going through a dirty mind and you feel bad finding it impossible to pull out of it, then today’s message will help you.

How Do You Get a Dirty Mind?

It is a pity that no one on earth has the power to stop the agents of dirty mind because they are everywhere including the church.

Our dressing style is speedily tending towards nakedness and many pastors never condemned the demonic style of dressing and cosmetics in our society.

Before the later end of the 19th century, anyone that dress or appears seductive is referred to as a whoreson dog, but it is unfortunate that presently half nakedness of people on the street is seen as a normal view.

Your heart can become filthy through the following:

1. Giving attention to secular advert on the television or magazine.

2. Fixing your eyes on opposite sex who may/may not dressed seductively.

3. Listening and enjoying the worldly music.

4. Watching porn

5. Immoral touch of the opposite sex can give a dirty mind

When Does Your Mind Gets Dirty

Everyone who has eyes to see and brain to interpret gets tempted every day. The difference is that a transformed Christian would wipe the dirt away before it sticks to the mind, but the careless Christian allows the dirt to stick which results to a dirty mind.

Jesus says: “You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not commit adultery. But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” (Matthew 5:28-29)

You don’t have a dirty mind when you look at opposite sex and take your eyes and heart away instantly!

But your mind gets dirty when you look at the opposite sex, admire the look in an indecent way, personalize the figure and long to have him or her on bed.

Your mind gets terribly perverted when you lust after same sex or you long to be transgender – it is an abomination to the LORD.

7 Terrible Effects of a Filthy Mind

1. It leads to fornication and adultery

2. Dirty mind corrupts the soul

3. Holy Spirit would desert from such heart

4. It gives room for the devil to oppress and depress such soul

5. You lose respect in the midst of reasonable people

6. Bankruptcy

7. Anyone with a dirty mind treks the path that leads to eternal punishment.

20 Ways to Overcome a Dirty Mind

1. Stay away from friends or people who delight in dirty talks.

2. Stop looking at someone for more than 1 second!

3. Don’t shift blame to the harlot-looking lady for your dirty mind.

4. You will be clean if you stop watching porn or any similar movie.

5. Self-control is a vital virtue that helps, so take charge of emotions.

6. Always do Bible recitation and consistent Bible studies.

7. Fill your mind with holy words and filthy thoughts won’t manifest.

8. Disallow your brain from analysing how he or she looks!

9. Improve your spiritual and physical discipline.

10. Be diligent in your spiritual and emotional training.

11. Tell yourself always that you are a faithful child of GOD!

12. Do not live your life with a passive mind, expecting GOD to play your role for you.

13. When your eyes see the ‘flesh’, instead of saying “wow!” it is wise to take your eyes away and whisper; “Blood of Jesus wash my face”!

14. Anointing does not cure dirty mind so always look away frequently when having a long talk with a seductive person.

15. If your mind gets dirty more often through watching television, you might need to shut it down until your heart is trained to watch only edifying programmes.

16. Avoid the beach because you can’t escape seeing the flesh in bikini that can stain your thoughts and make you dirty.

17. Don’t attend churches that allows seductive dressing because you would struggle so much with images that sucks your faith!

18. You won’t have a dirty mind if you are patient with your thoughts.

19. It is normal for opposite sex to be attractive but it is abnormal if you can’t control your desire.

20. Filthy mind can be cleaned through fasting and prayers.

I strongly encourage you to follow the steps above and your dirty mind would be cleaned permanently. Because, I followed the steps and my victory is permanent forever!

10 Ways to Overcome Spiritual Weakness!

10 Ways to Overcome Spiritual Weakness!

Spiritual weakness is an inability to satisfy the LORD due to inadequate spiritual strength and a status of spiritual immaturity. It’s a serious cause for concern because Christians going through spiritual weakness are not active sinners and they are eager to move out of the poor status because they understand the consequences.

Today’s sermon will explain the cause and the best ways for you to overcome spiritual weakness.

6 Causes of Spiritual Weakness

1. Lost Focus in Jesus Christ

Any Christian who gives too much attention to their pastors than to the Almighty GOD will lose focus on the genuine teachings of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ was aware of this danger and that is the reason He discouraged His disciples from referring to any man as a spiritual father and He made it clear that the only Spiritual  Father we have is GOD.

2. Distractions by Things of the World

The world is overloaded with many features which can blindfold you easily. For instance; wealth, science and technology, social enjoyment etc.

3. Obeying Cultures that Contradicts Holiness

It is unfortunate that the church of our generation had mingled with the world. Many church leaders allowed worldly culture thinking that will make the church to be full…

4. Lack of Spiritual Nutrient

It is a dangerous act to miss the reading and meditation on the Word of God every day!

5. Miscommunication between you and the LORD

It is easy to disobey the voice of the Holy Spirit because God’s will for you always contradicts most of your wishes.

6. Over-Estimating your Spiritual Status

Your spiritual strength has nothing to do with your age or the number of years you’d spent in the Christian fold. Servants of GOD can lose spiritual strength through the uncontrollable pride that approaches the ceremonial awards presented to them.

The teachings of Jesus Christ do not support the presentation of awards to Christians when on earth because our rewards are in heaven. Presentation of awards is a worldly practice that was adopted into the Christendom and it is destructive to our spiritual status with the LORD.

5 Types of Spiritual Weakness

1. Unstable Faith

2. Inability to exhibit spiritual gifts

3. Retarded spiritual growth

4. Non-transformation; No distinction between you and unbelievers

5. Pride

7 Signs of Spiritual Weakness

1. Procrastination of doing the right things

2. Love for things of this world

3. Blind argument to justify your undisciplined status

4. Unreadiness to let go some characters

5. Private Prayer time is diminishing very fast

6. No more active Personal Bible study

7. Less resistance to temptation and expecting Jesus to do it for you.

10 Steps to Overcome Spiritual Weakness

1. Don’t reach a conclusion that there are some sins you cannot stop!

2. It is vital you increase your prayer time. I asked for spiritual strength and I was empowered steadily.

3. Stay away from societal culture and church doctrines that cannot be found in the teachings of Jesus Christ.

4. Always share the Good News of Jesus Christ online and offline and your spiritual strength will be restored.

5. You can overcome spiritual weakness if you abandon all books except the Holy Bible which is the only roadmap for a successful spiritual journey.

6. You’ll get spiritual power during consistent praise and worship, so don’t miss personal fellowship with the LORD every day.

7. Don’t take temptation for granted when it comes. Expect it every day but don’t give the evil suggestions a second thought rather squeeze it into the trash with the word of God.

8. Give everything about your heart to Jesus Christ.

Jesus says: “He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.” (Matthew 10:37)

9. Spiritual weakness is as a result of spiritual indiscipline, so you have to be a disciplined Soldier of Christ.

10. Check and Balance yourself every night before going to bed.

Jesus says: “Therefore, you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.” (Matthew 24:44)

The risk involved in staying too long in spiritual weakness is terrific. It leads to spiritual stunted growth, lukewarm and backsliding. I was once a weak Christians but when I followed the steps above the LORD made me stronger in His Holiness.

You cannot be spiritually strong by your intellectuals or by the church doctrines. You must be disciplined and consistent in personal relationship with the LORD – that’s the secret of your victory!  

Why Do Christians Get Cancer?

Why Do Christians Get Cancer?

Christians get cancer which is a genetic disease caused by changes to the genes that control the way our body cells function which leads to uncontrollable cell growth and division to other parts of the body.

If Christians get cancer, then it does not mean that the LORD is wicked or weak to heal. Don’t let your faith be drained by the depression. Though it is referred to as an incurable disease, but the medical researchers are trying to come up with hopeful drugs…

According to Worldwide Cancer data, there were an estimated 18.1 million cancer cases around the world in 2020. Of these, 9.3 million cases were in men and 8.8 million in women.

Today’s message would explain the causes and the avoidable steps to hinder Christians get cancer.

How Do Christians Get Cancer into Their Body?

The risk factors and causes of cancer include:

1. Age

2. Alcohol

3. Cancer-Causing Substances in body cream or cosmetics

4. Chronic Inflammation

5. Diet and beverages

6. Hormones

7. Immunosuppression

8. Infectious Agents

9. Obesity

10. Ionizing and non-ionizing Radiation

11. Too much exposure to Sunlight

12. Tobacco

13. Heredity

14. Lack of Exercise

What does God Say about Cancer in the Bible?

Cancer is not specifically mentioned in the Bible but incurable disease which can be categorized as cancer was mentioned.

1. 2 Chronicles chapter 21 verse 12 to 20

“And a letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, thus says the LORD God of your father David: Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat your father…”

“But have walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and have made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to play the harlot like the harlotry of the house of Ahab, and also have killed your brothers…”

“Behold, the LORD will strike your people with a serious affliction-your children, your wives, and all your possessions… After all this the LORD struck him in his intestines with an incurable disease.”

2. Jeremiah chapter 30 verse 10 to 17

“…For I am with you,’ says the LORD, ‘to save you; … And will not let you go altogether unpunished.”

“For thus says the LORD: Your affliction is incurable, your wound is severe… You have no healing medicines…”

I discovered that the cancerous incidence mentioned in the Bible passages above is a divine punishment to the children of God who went astray.

How to be Healed from Cancer

If Christians get cancer, then the best healing practices excludes expensive medical treatments that does not heal!

So, the best steps include;

1. Repentance from all sins.

2. Read your Bible to find encouraging words that helps your faith.

3. Pray to the LORD and your faith can give you miracle of long life than the prediction of the doctors.

4. Wait patiently unto the LORD.

5. Depression kills cancer patients very fast, so, always rejoice in God’s presence through thanksgiving.

Christians get cancer through heredity or exposure to carcinogenic substances and risk factors mentioned above. Don’t be ignorant of the fact that misusing the grace of GOD like the Israelites might be disastrous.

This does not change the fact that GOD is loving. He is a disciplinarian and chastise His loved ones for their good.

I implore you to live a healthy lifestyle and stay away from foods and drinks preserved with chemicals. And, stay away from many body creams and cosmetics that contains heavy metals which could be carcinogenic.

May the mercy, power and healing from the LORD be upon all of us in Jesus name.   

Reincarnation in Christianity; Is it Biblical or Logical?

Reincarnation in Christianity; Is it Biblical or Logical?

Reincarnation in Christianity is a belief that crept into the church with the claim that Christian can die and get rebirth multiple times. Transmigration is also a term used for reincarnation with the concept that someone can die and the soul could come back to earth through a new born human or animal.

The teaching about reincarnation in Christianity was appealing and I nearly got confused, but I prayed and studied the Bible carefully and I am glad that the Holy Spirit won’t allow me to be in darkness about this issue of transmigration.

Are you confused about this topic or you want a detailed and sincere information about reincarnation in Christianity? Today’s sermon is a powerful one you won’t want to miss!

Statistics about Reincarnation in Christianity

I was shocked by the outcome of 2017 survey done by the Pew Research Center among some U.S. adults.

29% Christians, 26% Protestant and 19% Evangelical believe in reincarnation.

It is unfortunate to know that such appreciable percentage of people who believe reincarnation in Christianity exist in the church. We have to stop the increasing trend because it was 25% in 2015.

Origin of Reincarnation

There is no doubt that this concept is an ancient one which makes it difficult to trace the specific year and author. But I tell you with the authority of the LORD that the origin of reincarnation is from the devil.

Transmigration is famous in the East and widely known among pagan religions such as; Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism.

Scriptures Used by the Devil to Lure Christians

I did my findings and discovered that those who believe in reincarnation rely on the ancient tales and no authentic evidence about the concept.

Does it make any sense to believe in a religious faith that has no proof and evidence but tales and unrealistic imagination? Jesus knew the importance of this fact and He said: “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will by no means believe.” We saw the evidence of Christ and that is the reason we are called Christians. 

Devil would always see himself to be a smart guy who also use the tool of scriptural misconception to slide the Christian folks, but trust me, he is a liar!

The following bible passages referred to as a justification for reincarnation in Christianity were quote out of context and misinterpreted:

1. Matthew chapter 17 verses 12:

“But I say to you that Elijah has come already, and they did not know him but did to him whatever they wished. Likewise, the Son of Man is also about to suffer at their hands.”

Believers of transmigration preach that John the Baptist was Elijah reincarnated. Absolute nonsense!!

When Jesus Christ was comparing John the Baptist to Elijah, He meant that John the Baptist performed in the same spirit and power of Elijah as prophesied by the prophets and Angel Gabriel. (Luke 1:17)

If my explanation above is not enough then let’s hear from John the Baptist:

“Now this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?”

He confessed, and did not deny, but confessed, “I am not the Christ.”

And they asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” And he answered, “No.” (John 1:19-21)

The believers of transmigration in Christianity contradicts themselves through this bible reference because the pre-requisite of reincarnation is death before rebirth into a new incarnated body. Since prophet Elijah never died then it is wrong to say John the Baptist was his reincarnate.

2. John chapter 3 verses 3:

“Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.””

I am not surprise that this quote was picked by advocates of reincarnation in Christianity. Devil also did something similar when quoting the scriptures to Jesus Christ to fall down from the pinnacle of the temple during his temptation. (Luke 4:9-12)

When Jesus Christ was teaching Nicodemus about becoming born again, He was not talking about reincarnation because Jesus never told him to commit suicide. It was explicit that Jesus Christ was teaching about spiritual rebirth.

Jesus says: “That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.”

The process of spiritual born again is completely different from the physical rebirth related to reincarnation, so the bible verse above is wrongly used by the believers of reincarnation in Christianity.

Why the Devil Brought Up the Concept of Reincarnation?

1. To Rubbish God’s Salvation

After the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the devil is doing all his best to make us disbelief that our salvation to be saved from the bondage of sin is in Jesus Christ.

In reincarnation, salvation becomes a form of work based on human actions through repeated death and rebirth rather than on the atoning death of Jesus Christ – deceit of the devil!!!

2. To Deceive People that No One Goes to Hell

The doctrine of reincarnation teaches that someone would be free from sin and re-unite with God through continuous cycle of death and rebirth – a false belief!!

3. Devil Wants to Distract Us from Resurrection

The servants of devil bribed the soldiers to spread the lies that Jesus’ body was stolen and there was no resurrection. (Matthew 28:11-13). Well, the lies worked for the Jews but was not strong enough to deceive the Gentiles.

The devil invents the virus program of transmigration to attack the righteous system of resurrection established by the LORD. That’s impossible and the devil would keep failing!

5 Reasons you must not belief Reincarnation in Christianity

1. No one had come out and tell you he or she is reincarnated.

2. It’s unclear for anyone to show evidence of being reincarnated.

3. The process of transmigration is not teachable.

4. No one including the scientist had confirmed any human reincarnated to plant or animal as claimed by Hinduism.

5. It is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment.

What Does the Bible Say about Reincarnation?

No record of reincarnation can be found in the Bible because it is not God’s idea. Here are some Bible verses that tells us the truth about rebirth and afterlife:

1. “As the cloud disappears and vanishes away, so, he who goes down to the grave does not come up.” (Job 7:9)

2. “And Jesus said to him, “Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.” (Luke 23:43)

3. “For He remembered that they were but flesh, a breath that passes away and does not come again.” (Psalm 78:39)

4. “Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming in which all who are in the graves will hear His voice “and come forth–those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.” (John 5:28-29)

5. “And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, Some to everlasting life, Some to shame and everlasting contempt.” (Daniel 12:2)

Finally, reincarnation in Christianity is a contaminant and a weed that must not be allowed to destroy the good plant. Don’t believe it because transmigration is not real and it is bunch of lies!! 

I pray for God’s wisdom into your life and the Spirit of the LORD won’t depart from you in Jesus’ name.

Spiritual Dream: How to Interpret and Take Dreams Seriously!

Spiritual Dream: How to Interpret and Take Dreams Seriously!

Spiritual dream may be gentle or aggressive but the truth is that it disseminates important message to warn or get you prepared for a victorious journey. 

Today’s sermon explains the types of dreams, how to get meaning to your dreams and how to identify a spiritual dream.

What is a Spiritual Dream?

Spiritual dream is a revelation that occurs during your sleep. It’s a medium that is used by GOD and the devil to interact with you. It is a medium for disseminating information to you and it’s also a battle field. Your soul and spirit are actively involved in spiritual dream.

When to Take Dream Seriously!

It’s not a big deal if you dreamt flying an aeroplane and you got crashed into the sea, swimming and shooting at your enemies if you’d watch an action movie the previous day!

Take your dream seriously if you do all the check-list and confirm that it was not the reflection of the previous day(s) activities, thoughts and imaginations.

Your soul is so powerful that it can store a lot of things you do including imaginations which could be re-played to your sub-conscious state when you are fast-asleep.

Is it Good to Believe in dreams?

Sensible dreams are not for everyone because it is not a spiritual gift to many. So, consider yourself to be among the favoured if you can sleep and wake up to narrate your dreams.

“And it shall come to pass afterward That I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, Your young men shall see visions.” (Joel 2:28)

I don’t joke with my dreams because they always come to pass. I can’t count all the advantages of dream because God uses it to tell me what would happen the next day or in the nearest future.

Yes, the devil and his demons come to attack with the intention to stop me from revealing his secrets to people, but they are always defeated by the power of the LORD who lives in me.

 It is good to believe dreams if you are very sure it’s not as a result of your imaginations. Good or bad dreams prepare you for the challenge ahead and it guides you to know how to pray and actions to take during the day’s activities.

What to do after dreams?

1. Write your dreams in a designated book.

2. If it is either sweet dreams don’t be too excited or bad dreams don’t be overwhelmed with fear.

3. Many dreams require interpretation, so, you need the help of the Holy Spirit. I reluctantly recommend sharing with your Pastor because he might not be gifted to interpret, but when you pray to the LORD, He would tell you more about the spiritual dream.

4. Don’t procrastinate the obedience of God’s instruction you received through dreams.

5. Sweet spiritual dream does not encourage you to be spiritually lazy. Joseph’s dreams were enough for him to be lazy but he wasn’t.

Spiritual dream is another world of reality that is capable of influencing your physical world. Take dreams seriously and pray about it.
