You need to be very careful; all that glitters is not gold. If you go to any ministry where ‘miracles’ are happening without purity, run! It is not done by the power of the Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit is the spirit of holiness.
You must also ensure that you don’t bring things that can invite demons into your home. Clean up! There is no moving up with God without cleaning up. Many times instead of stretching to move up, what a lot of people do is to bring things down to their size.
PRAYER
- I don’t know where this message has touched you, please talk to God. Straighten it up with God. Clean up. God cannot endorse you if you stand before him with filthy garment.
- Where are you displaying any ornament of defilement? What are the things you are still struggling with? If God enters your house, will he be pleased with what he sees?
- One-on-one with God, how do you stand? Talk to God and ask him for mercy. Ask him to cleanse your physical temple.
- If you are involved in a shady business where you need to tell lies in order to make money, take note that you are not in a good business. If you have to steal in order to make ends meet, ask God for a change of job.
- Talk to God. Tell him that you want to walk with him according to his dictates, according to his word. Tell him that you do not wish to display any ornament of defilement and that it is only the blessing that comes from his throne of grace that you desire.
- Tell him that you don’t want to drink the wine of success that will block your heaven, or consign you to hell. Promise to mean business with him in this journey.
- Ask him to establish you in his own holiness, in his righteousness and in his wisdom.
- Hand over every battle raging over your soul to God. The devil is an obstinate rascal. The battle against defilement is a very serious battle because it is like dust, all it takes for defilement to operate is a little opening. The environment is so defiled, so desecrated; all it takes for dust to enter is just one small opening.
