GOD CREATED EVERYTHING GOOD

Welcome back from the weekend to a new day and a new week. I hope you enjoyed rest in the midst of the many social activities.

In his expose of the teachings of hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron, Apostle Paul mentioned 2 of their heresies. These are 2 Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. He wrote that hey forbid people to marry and order them to abstain from certain foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and who know the truth” (1 Timothy 4:2-3 NIV).

Explaining what he wrote in the above verses, Apostle Paul continued:

“For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, because it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer” (1 Timothy 4:4-5 NIV).

The false teachers plaguing the early church were the forerunners of the Gnostics of the second century. Even at this relatively incipient stage, the strong dualism of the Gnostics is clear: SPIRIT IS GOOD; MATTER IS EVIL.

They believed all appetites relating to the body are therefore evil and should be rooted out, including normal desires for s*x and food. Thus the false teachers forbid people to marry and order them to abstain from certain foods.

A similar thing was happening in the Colossian church and Apostle Paul swiftly addressed it in his epistle to them as follows:

“Since you died with Christ to the basic principles of this world, why, as though you still belonged to it, do you submit to its rules: “DO NOT HANDLE! DO NOT TASTE! DO NOT TOUCH!”? These are all destined to perish with use, because they are based on human commands and teachings. SUCH REGULATIONS INDEED HAVE AN APPEARANCE OF WISDOM, WITH THEIR SELF-IMPOSED WORSHIP, THEIR FALSE HUMILITY AND THEIR HARSH TREATMENT OF THE BODY, BUT THEY LACK ANY VALUE IN RESTRAINING SENSUAL Indulgence. (Colossians 2:20-23 NIV).

Today, we have false teachers who are propagating such heresies especially about food.

But Paul went to the heart of the dualistic error by stating that matter is not inherently evil; it is rather part of what God created. Later in 1 Timothy 6:17, Apostle Paul countered these teachings with the admonition:

“Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, WHO RICHLY PROVIDES US WITH EVERYTHING FOR OUR ENJOYMENT”.

Everything is ALL THINGS – nothing excluded.

Hence those who believe and who know the truth can gratefully receive and use the things God created, which were designed to be received.

Contrary to the teaching of the heretics, EVERYTHING GOD CREATED IS GOOD. Here Paul echoed God's own verdict:

“GOD SAW ALL THAT HE HAD MADE, AND IT WAS VERY GOOD” (Genesis 1:31 NIV)

Whereas the false teachers were intent on “forbidding” and “abstaining”, Apostle Paul said that NOTHING IS TO BE REJECTED—NOTHING, THAT IS, THAT GOD CREATED.

Man can abuse what God has created, as adultery is an abuse of the marital s*xual relationship, and gluttony is an abuse of a normal appetite for food. Such abuses should certainly be rejected. But God's creations themselves are all good and should be received with thanksgiving, not with taboos.

All the seemingly “ordinary” things of life can then become extraordinary as they are consecrated by the Word of God and prayer. In the light of the Scriptures a Christian recognizes God's good hand behind the things provided, and offers thanksgiving to the Lord. In this way the ordinary things so easily taken for granted (some of which are forbidden by heretics) become sanctified as occasions for worship and praise.

The Bible says IT IS THE LORD WHO GIVES BREAD (OR FOOD) TO THE EATER (see Isaiah 55:10 and 2 Corinthians 9:10).

Today, as you sit at the dining table whether for breakfast, lunch or dinner, come with a prayerful spirit, thanking God for his provision of food and also using your tongue to bless and sanctify the food you are about to eat.

But is there not a cause to be careful of what we eat? Is there a “good food” and a “bad food”? We shall find out tomorrow.

Have a blessed week.

TRAVAIL TO PREVAIL

“PASS ME NOT, O GENTLE SAVIOUR”

Hallelujah! It is the Lord’s Day and it is the first Lord’s Day in September 2026. I am so glad I am among the living not only physically but also spiritually. That is why I am going to the House of God to join my household of faith to give worship to Him who sits on the throne in the Kingdom of Heaven.

We are in the 9th month of the year. For an expectant (pregnant) woman, the 9th month is the much-awaited month when she looks forward to laying down her heavy burden – the baby she had been nurturing in her womb.

That is why some pastors and congregations mark the month of September (the 9th month on our calendars) as “SEPTEMBER TO DELIVER”. In this month, it is expected that you and I will deliver or bring forth the “destiny blessings” the Lord had “impregnated” us with on the dawn of January 1, 2026. That means we have been spiritually pregnant for 9 months and our expected date for delivery has arrived.

I hope you also know that there can be no delivery unless their is a travail. The Bible says “Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? FOR AS SOON AS ZION TRAVAILED, SHE BROUGHT FORTH HER CHILDREN” (Isaiah 66:8 KJV).

Therefore, the arrival of your baby depends on how soon you start to travail or go into labour. The Labour Theatre is not a place to go and chill. It is a place to go and sweat it out through travail. You only prevail when you travail. Some expectant mothers lost their own lives or their babies simply for failing to travail.

⚔️ In the realm of the spirit, we must also travail in order to prevail. Our Master Jesus Christ travailed in prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane and prevailed over Satan and the forces of darkness. Prophet Isaiah foresaw the travail of Jesus Christ and prophesied:
“HE SHALL SEE OF THE TRAVAIL OF HIS SOUL, AND SHALL BE SATISFIED: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities” (Isaiah 53:11 KJV).

👍🏻 Today, Jesus Christ is satisfied as he sits at the right hand side of the Father because he sees the billions of children his travail had brought forth into the Kingdom of God.

❓ Do you have any destiny issues you are still carrying in your spirit?

👍🏻 TRAVAIL AND PREVAIL.

⚔️ Jacob travailed against the angel of God and prevailed.

🎹 I have chosen for our meditation today a very popular hymn, “PASS ME NOT O GENTLE SAVIOUR”. This hymn was written by F***y Crosby when she heard the cry of an inmate during prison ministry. Her words have come to mean a lot to many people, reminding us that when we call out in humble trust, our Lord never passes us by!

👉🏻 I am told this hymn was also inspired by the story of blind Bartimeus in the gospels. The story as recorded by St. Mark tells us that as Jesus Christ went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the highway side begging. And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, Bartimaeus began to cry out, and say, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me. And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the more a great deal, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me. The persistent cry of Bartimaeus caught the attention ofthe Lord and he was healed of his blindness.

🆘 In the Labour Theatre, it is “EVERYONE FOR HIMSELF AND GOD FOR US ALL”. You should not allow anybody to shut you down. You are there with your own issues. Concentrate on that and get what you want.

🎹 On that note, join me and let us sing prayerfully to the Lord ......

[Stanza 1]
Pass me not, O gentle Saviour,
hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
do not pass me by.

[Refrain]
Saviour, Saviour, hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.

[Stanza 2]
Let me at a throne of mercy
Find a sweet relief,
Kneeling there in deep contrition;
Help my unbelief. [Refrain]

[Stanza 3]
Trusting only in Thy merit,
Would I seek Thy face;
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
Save me by Thy grace. [Refrain]

[Stanza 4]
Thou, the Spring of all my comfort,
More than life to me;
Whom have I on earth beside Thee?
Whom in heav'n but Thee? [Refrain]

🙏🏻 Have a prevailing Lord’s Day and month as you travail in the closet of prayer with the Lord.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN THE LAST DAYS (9)

We are grateful to the Lord for seeing us through the week and giving us a day to rest.

Today is a day of mourning for some families as they lay to rest the mortal remains of their loved ones who have been called to rest with our Heavenly Father in heaven. My thoughts are with such families.

Today is also a day of rejoicing for some families as they gather for a wedding, a traditional marriage, a naming ceremony or the celebration of a birthday or something good that had happened in their lives.

My word of counsel for all can be found in the words of Apostle Paul to the saints at Corinth:

“Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God” (1 Corinthians 10:31).

We continue to study the doctrines of demons which believers who have fallen away from the truth would be teaching in the last days. Apostle Paul, by the express and clear revelation of the Holy Spirit wrote:

“..... commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth” (1 Timothy 4:3 NKJV).

Elohim had commanded in the scriptures concerning what we can eat. The first commandment God gave about what was allowable to be eaten can be found in Genesis 2:16-17 where the Lord commanded Adam in the garden of Eden saying “OF EVERY TREE OF THE GARDEN THOU MAYEST FREELY EAT BUT OF THE TREE OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL, THOU SHALT NOT EAT OF IT: FOR IN THE DAY THAT THOU EATEST THEREOF THOU SHALT SURELY DIE”.

Then after the flood of Noah’s time, the Lord gave a new command concerning food:

“Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things. But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat” (Genesis 9:3-4).

From the above verse, it appeared the Lord put humankind on a vegetarian diet but removed the restriction on eating meat except eating flesh with blood in it.

Later after Israel left Egypt when the Lord gave the laws, commandments and regulations, he included dietary and nutrition regulations. These laws can be found in Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14. These were the commandments the Israelites lived with.

However, these laws were suspended in the new testament after the redemption work of Jesus Christ. That was why when the Jerusalem Council of the Church was writing to Gentile converts, a portion of that letter said “THAT YE ABSTAIN FROM MEATS OFFERED TO IDOLS, AND FROM BLOOD, AND FROM THINGS STRANGLED” (Acts 15:29).

It was the same instruction Apostle Paul wrote to the Corinthians - abstaining from meats offered to idols. He concluded in the following words:

“But not everyone knows this. Some people are still so accustomed to idols that when they eat such food they think of it as having been sacrificed to an idol, and since their conscience is weak, it is defiled. BUT FOOD DOES NOT BRING US NEAR TO GOD; WE ARE NO WORSE IF WE DO NOT EAT, AND NO BETTER IF WE DO” (1 Corinthians 8:7-8 NIV).

Again, to the Romans, Apostle Paul wrote:

“One man's faith allows him to eat everything, but another man, whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables. The man who eats everything must not look down on him who does not, and the man who does not eat everything must not condemn the man who does, for God has accepted him” (Romans 14:2-3 NIV).
He also wrote:

“As one who is in the Lord Jesus, I am fully convinced that no food is unclean in itself. But if anyone regards something as unclean, then for him it is unclean. .... For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit, because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by men” (Romans 14:14, 17-18 NIV).

I have shared these scriptures to support what Apostle Paul wrote to Timothy that “everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, because it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer” (1 Timothy 4:4-5 NIV).

I have intentionally not cited the story where Apostle Peter had a vision in which he was instructed to kill and eat forbidden animals (Acts 10:9-16). The Lord only used that vision to prepare Apostle Peter to go to the house of Cornelius, a Gentile.

Therefore, today, thank God for any food you are served, pray and sanctify it. Do not reject it. But if you know eating that food will hurt the conscience of a weaker brother or sister (because it is associated with an idol or a fe**sh shrine) , then do not eat it for the sake of your weaker brother or sister.

Have a blessed weekend.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN THE LAST DAYS (8)

Thank God for a new day and it is a Friday leading us to the first weekend in the month of September 2026.

After revealing the nature of the believers who departed from the faith (hypocrites and liars) Apostle Paul proceeded to give Timothy some examples of the doctrines of demons which they were propagating. We find the heresies in the next verse:

“... forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth” (1 Timothy 4:3 NKJV).

✒️ The Message Bible has it as follows:

“.... They will tell you not to get married. They’ll tell you not to eat this or that food—perfectly good food God created to be eaten heartily and with thanksgiving by believers who know better!”

If you are a believer who has taken personal Bible study seriously or you have submitted yourself under the teaching ministry of an gifted and Holy Spirit-anointed Teacher of the Word of God, you know that such teachings are doctrines of demons coming straight from hell.

👫 First, let us deal with marriage.

The Bible makes it clear that marriage was created or ordained by Elohim to be a union between a man and a woman for a purpose. If you ever attended a solemnization of holy marriage in an orthodox denomination using the old (“ancient”) liturgy, the Officiating minister at the start of the service would spell out the purpose for which the Lord ordained marriage. He would say something like this:

“It was ordained for couples to have children and bring them up in the fear and love of God. It was ordained to provide a lawful and pure outlet for s*xual desire”.

A loving and a wise God created marriage in the beginning (we read it in Genesis). Marriage was one of the creations God declared to be good. The writer of the letter to the Hebrews concurred with the Lord and wrote that “marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge” (Hebrews 13:4 KJV).

There is nothing evil about marriage if it is entered into according to the “prescription” of God – spiritually, legally and customarily. When Abraham’s servant was going to marry Rebekah for Isaac, he took some items to the parents of Rebekah. That was a customary or traditional way of marrying.

In the New Testament, the Pharisees, in their never-ceasing attempts to trap Jesus Christ, went and asked him whether it was right for a man to divorce his wife. Jesus Christ gave the a good answer which included a quote from Genesis 1:27-28. Then he added “This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.' Since they are no longer two but one, let no one split apart what God has joined together." (Matthew 19:5-6 NLTSE).

👍🏻 In the words of Jesus Christ, God ordained marriage and it is a good thing. Without marriage, none of us would have entered this earth besides Adam and Eve.

⛔ In some denominations, people take the vow of celibacy voluntarily. Celibacy is the VOLUNTARY CHOICE TO REMAIN UNMARRIED, ABSTAIN FROM SEXUAL ACTIVITY, OR BOTH. It means a person is physically capable of having s*x but chooses not to engage in s*xual relations. I believe in the Catholic Church, all priests take the vow of celibacy. If you know you cannot keep this vow, priesthood in the Catholic Church is not your calling.

📢 In his answer to his disciples, Jesus Christ spoke about 3 types of celibacy. The term he used was “EUNUCH”. In the Bible times, a Eu**ch were usually servants or slaves who were castrated to make them less threatening servants of a royal court where physical access to the ruler could wield great influence. He performed such seemingly lowly domestic functions such as making the ruler's bed, bathing the king or queen, etc.

📢 This is what Jesus Christ said:

“Some are born as eu**chs, some have been made eu**chs by others, and some choose not to marry for the sake of the Kingdom of Heaven. Let anyone accept this who can." (Matthew 19:12 NLTSE).

The term eu**ch was used figuratively for those who voluntarily abstain from marriage. Jesus here gave three kinds of eu**chs:

👉🏻 Those who are born without the capacity for s*x and marriage.

👉🏻 Those who are made by others without the capacity for s*x and marriage.

👉🏻 Those who choose to live without s*x and marriage for the kingdom of heaven’s sake.

📌 Then he concluded “LET ANYONE ACCEPT THIS WHO CAN."

From the teaching of scripture, marriage is a good thing. Celibacy is also a good thing because it allows you space and time to serve the Lord without the distractions of family obligations and responsibilities.

I end with the godly counsel of Apostle Paul:

“... It is good for a man not to marry. But since there is so much immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband” (1 Corinthians 7:1-2 NIV)

If you believe you best serve God by not marrying, this is what Apostle Paul wrote:

“I would like you to be free from concern. An unmarried man is concerned about the Lord's affairs—how he can please the Lord. But a married man is concerned about the affairs of this world—how he can please his wife - and his interests are divided. An unmarried woman or virgin is concerned about the Lord's affairs: Her aim is to be devoted to the Lord in both body and spirit. But a married woman is concerned about the affairs of this world - how she can please her husband. I am saying this for your own good, not to restrict you, BUT THAT YOU MAY LIVE IN A RIGHT WAY IN UNDIVIDED DEVOTION TO THE LORD” (1 Corinthians 7:32-35 NIV).

Over to you. Choose what works for you to fulfil your call. But let nobody tell you that marriage is bad. It is good and intended for pleasure and procreation. The only marriage that is bad is same s*x marriage or a marriage to a dog (LGBTQI+).

WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN THE LAST DAYS (7)

We move forward to the second verse in this chapter that Apostle Paul shared with Timothy the revelation of some people who would fall away from the faith in the last days. In verse 2, we see the nature of their departure from the faith to embrace of the doctrines of demons.

✒️ From the KJV, the verse reads: “Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron”.

✒️ The Amplified Bible rendered the verse:“Through the hypocrisy and pretensions of liars whose consciences are seared (cauterized)”.

✒️ This is how it reads in the NLTSE: “These people are hypocrites and liars, and their consciences are dead”.

✒️ The NIV put it as follows:"Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron”.

✒️ And from the NASB, it reads:“... by means of the hypocrisy of liars seared in their own conscience as with a branding iron”.

📌 Each of these translations gives us an idea of the nature of the people who would fall away from the faith and pay attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons.

👉🏻 They are hypocrites and liars whose consciences are dead.

✒️ A HYPOCRITE is a person whose actions, behaviour, or true character do not match the moral standards, beliefs, or virtues they claim to have.

✒️A LIAR is a person who tells lies or speaks falsely with the intent to deceive. According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, the term functions as a noun for SOMEONE WHO DOES NOT TELL THE TRUTH, WHETHER ON A SINGLE OCCASION OR AS A REGULAR HABIT. In the context of what Apostle Paul was revealing, these people would be habitual liars – they live a life of telling lies.

⛔ And we have plenty of such people – HYPOCRITES and LIARS when it comes to spiritual things in the world today. People who claim to be believers but their lives do not match with their confession.

♨️ What makes their condition terrible is the fact that their consciences have been seared as with a hot iron.

👍🏻 God, in his wisdom, gave everybody a conscience. It is the inner sense or moral compass that helps a person tell the difference between right and wrong. It is an inner guiding voice which guides our thoughts and actions based on our personal or societal values. It causes feelings of guilt or regret when you do something you know is wrong. It gives you a sense of peace when you know you acted fairly or honestly.

🎉 When we were in lower primary school, we learnt a rhyme or a poem which says:

“There is a small bell in my heart; it has a loud sound. Whenever I sin, it troubles me day and night. But when I do a good thing in the sight of God, then it gives me joy. “

🎉 That small bell is our conscience.

✒️ About it’s workings, Apostle Paul wrote the following:

“Even Gentiles, who do not have God's written law, show that they know his law when they instinctively obey it, even without having heard it. They demonstrate that God's law is written in their hearts, for their own conscience and thoughts either accuse them or tell them they are doing right” (Romans 2:14-15 NLTSE).

⚖️ That is why anybody who would stand before the Lord on the day of judgement with a plea of not guilty because he was never told the good news of salvation would be acquitted because they have a conscience which was testifying to them.

📌 The reason why these people cannot be helped by their consciences is the conscience is DEAD. The KJV says “THEIR CONSCIENCE SEARED WITH A HOT IRON”.

✒️ The Greek word is “KAUSTĒRIAZŌ” which means to mark by branding or seared with a hot iron. The English word “CAUTERIZE” which means to burn or freeze body tissue using heat, electricity, or chemicals to stop bleeding, prevent infection, or remove unwanted tissue comes from the Greek.

✒️ Apostle Paul here refers to the ancient practice of branding a criminal on the forehead with a distinguishing mark. For these people who have fallen away from the faith, it was not their forehead that was branded with a hot iron, but their conscience instead.

✒️ Apostle Paul described such people in Ephesians 4:19 as persons “who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness”.

👉🏻 Because their consciences are dead (seared), they cannot feel it when they sin. It is like a diabetic patient whose nerves are dead and cannot feel it even when pricked with a needle or cut with a blade.

❓ What is the state of your conscience? Does it accuse or condemn you when you do or say something wrong?

☠️ If you do not have feelings of guilt or regret when you do something you know is wrong, I want to suggest that your conscience is seared – it is dead.

♨️ Apostle Paul knew what it was to have a dead, burned conscience. Before he surrendered his life to Jesus Christ on the road to Damascus, he felt completely justified in his persecution of Christians and hatred of Jesus. He could feel justified because his conscience was seared and needed a wake-up call – which the Lord graciously provided.

👍🏻 That God who saved the former Saul of Tarsus, the persecutor of the saints is still able to revive your dead conscience when you cry out to him in genuine repentance. Do that now before it is too late.

📍 Tomorrow, we will see the teachings of these backslidden people who are being used by Satan.
