Pastor E. A. Adeboye at RCCG 69th Annual Convention Tagged’A New Wave Of Glory’
(Day 2, Evening Session)
What are you doing with someone whose ways are not in the ways of the Lord?
Be pure socially,
I don’t know if you have heard the testimony of a sister who went abroad and she was invited to a club where there were many people from a particular nation. They were selling and passing drugs among themselves there. There was a black man in the security society who was there to arrest those people, that fellow sat down, saw these people speaking their local language which he knew very well but he saw this fellow who wasn’t speaking their language after he signaled the police he said to this fellow get out of here, you are not part of this group. That lady was just getting out of the door when the police arrived.
What kind of people are you hanging out with? Listen to me my beloved young ones, if your strength is not to be contaminated socially, watch out to avoid spiritual contamination, keep yourself pure. Proverbs 21:16, made it clear.
Why are you associating with people who are not working in the ways of the Lord, sooner or later they will move you to their club. If you wander out of the way of understanding, you will end up in the way of the dead that is the Word of God.
Be pure so that you are not maritally contaminated, that is very important. I pray for those of you who are yet to be married, you will not marry the wrong fellow because if you do, for you hell begins here on earth. She is beautiful, cute and this, does she fear God? Is she a child of the living God? He is a handsome young man and so on, is he a child of God? Hell begins for you on earth, you won’t have to wait till you die.
2 Corinthians 6:14-18, the Bible made it clear, don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers. Some say after I am married to him I will change him, I will convert him, you will convert who?
Consider Samson, he was a young man strong, Judges 14:5-6, with his bare hands, he tore a lion into two, are you that strong?
Judges 15:11-19, with the jaw bone of an ass, he killed a thousand of the enemies, are you that strong? In Judges 16:1-31, you saw what happened because he became contaminated, he lost his sight, he lost his freedom, he died before he could fulfill his destiny. Be pure my brothers and sisters.
If anybody says to you, why are you behaving as if you are holier than everybody else, tell them I know where I am going, I don’t want my strength contaminated, be pure. Be pure and your prayers will not be hindered. Isaiah 59:1-2, God is still answering prayers provided there is no sin between you and Him.
Be pure and you will reach your goal, all you have to do is study, Joseph was told by God even in his youth that he was going to be great, he reached his goal because he refused to compromise. Someone offered him illicit sex, he had enough sense to say no way. I have talked to you youths about the glory of purity, I pray that the Almighty God will let your heart receive this message, apply it to yourself because, in the name that is above every other name, when elders are moving on, you will be the New Wave of Glory.
We cannot even talk about purity if you don’t know salvation because a sinner is called a sinner because he sins but you can become pure if you come to the Lord Jesus Christ. He said in His words, His blood can wash you and make you whiter than snow, everything will become new for you. If you give your life to Christ today and run away from sin, He will give you a new beginning and you will be part of the New Wave Of Glory. If you want to give your life to Jesus now, bow your head now and ask that He will save your soul. He will give you the grace to have a life of holiness, purity and strength from now on.
- Cry unto God for grace to live a life of purity from now on so that the Almighty God can renew your age like the eagles in Jesus mighty name.
