Youths As Vessels Unto Honor
Text: 2 Timothy 2:19-23
I want to begin with the opening word in our Bible reading today.
"Nevertheless" - this word also means, "notwithstanding" or irrespective of popular opinions or despite the popular saying in this modern Christian age, God's solid foundation remains true.
His truth has not changed in our ever-changing world of compromises and indulgences.
You have been told that this time is different and that things must be done differently. The question I am asking is, how much impact are we making as we take this new path and neglect the ways of the scriptures?
We have removed the ancient landmarks which our fathers have set, and this is against the will of God (Proverbs 22 verse 28).
Whereas God is calling us to walk in the old path, but we have refused. (Jeremiah 6 verse 16).
We have refused the way of rest and chosen the path of destruction - may God have mercy on us (Proverbs 14 verse 12; and 16 verse 25).
In this kingdom, there is a standard foundation. In fact, there is no other foundation that needs to be laid than that which has already been laid, and that solid foundation is Jesus Christ. Everything must be built on this foundation (1 Corinthians 3 verse 11).
Friends, God knows His own. Let no one deceive you, God's people know themselves. You might have heard people remark this way, "Only God knows His own". As true as that statement is, God's people also know themselves. If you are a child of God you can't but know.
The Bible says in John 1 verse 12 that as many as received Christ have been given the right to be called God's children. If they are children and heirs of God, how can they not know?
Let those who are called Christians, the choirs, youth leaders, evangelists, pastors, ministers, etc, depart from sin. They must flee from sin and must not sin.
As it is written, Therefore “Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you.”
“I will be a Father to you, And you shall be My sons and daughters, Says the Lord Almighty.”
(2 Corinthians 6 verse 17‭ to 18)
You have been bought with a price, not of corruptible seed but of the incorruptible seed of the word of God (1 Peter 1 verse 23). There must be zero tolerance for sin in your life.
Until this condition is fulfilled, God can do nothing with your life. Many people, mostly the youths want to do something for God, but they don't understand the principle of God's anointing.
There must be sanctification before ordination or anointing. Whenever God has a special mission, or important task to send a person, He will first make you holy (Jeremiah 1 verse 5).
