Why do you go to church , why did you join the activity department in church, what is your driving force for doing what you do in church, are you doing it because you are commanded to do so or because that's the way things are done? Let your service in the house of God be from your heart of love for God and not from compulsion, necessity or eye service.

Good morning Saints of God. Lifting your hands in worship is a physical expression of surrender, reverence, hunger, gratitude, and connection with God. Your words carry the praise, while your lifted hands reflect the posture of your heart. Together, they become a complete expression of worship. Even when words fail, let your hands speak worship. 🙌🏽 to the One who never fails, never leaves, and never stops being God. Have a great day

Untaught and Unlearned Teachers are a great plague.

Concerning Bible truth and doctrine, do not take seriously anyone who boasts about never being taught, corrected, discipled, or learning from others regardless of the brilliance, gifting, charisma, or brigandage behind them.

The Christian faith was handed down. Men learned from men who learned from God.

Holy Bible says, “The things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.” 2 Timothy 2:2.

Even Apollos, mighty in the Scriptures and fervent in spirit, still sat under instruction from Priscilla and Aquila, who expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly. Acts 18:24-26.

Do not mistake isolation for revelation. A man cuts himself off from sound teaching, rejects accountability, refuses spiritual authority, watches a few clips online, reads scattered verses, and suddenly declares himself a teacher of doctrine and knowledgeable

Many errors are simply recycled ignorance spoken with confidence.

Nobody genuinely taught by the Spirit despises learning through men. Christ gave teachers to the Church for a reason. Ephesians 4:11-14.

A man may be gifted and still be dangerously untaught. Church history is full of brilliant heretics.

THEME: GUARD AGAINST DECEPTION

But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ (2 Corinthians 11:3).

Genesis chapter 3 exposes a recurring and dangerous pattern of deception that has persisted throughout history. It begins with Eve faithfully recounting to Satan what God had said about the tree of knowledge of good and evil that was in the garden of Eden: “...We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.” (Genesis 3:2-3).

Then Satan responded, “...Ye shall not surely die” (Genesis 3:4). He contradicted God directly. But it didn’t end there. The next verse reveals something deeper as Satan continues, “For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil” (Genesis 3:5).

With that statement, Satan moved from contradicting God to accusing Him of deception. It’s the same thing today; those who are masters of deception accuse others of misinformation. Satan accused God of misinformation. His suggestion was that God knew the “real truth” but withheld it from Adam and Eve. This is the master of deception pretending to tell the truth.

This pattern of satanic manipulation of truth through subtlety echoes in other biblical narratives. For example, in 2 Samuel 13, we see a similar deception at play. The story began with Amnon, the son of King David who developed a lustful obsession for his sister Tamar.

The Septuagint clarified that this was a lust-driven love, not genuine affection. His obsession intensified, and he became sick with longing. The danger emerged when Amnon's friend Jonadab, described as “a very subtle man,” intervened. Jonadab was a cunning advisor who manipulated Amnon into destructive actions that ultimately led to tragedy and death.

You must guard your heart against deception by staying with what God has said in His Word. Refuse Satan’s contradictions and perverted truths. Reject every voice that questions the veracity of God’s Word. When your heart is established in God’s truths, you become unmovable, discerning and protected. You recognise deception for what it is and you remain grounded in the integrity of God’s Word.

PRAYER

Dear Father, thank you for your Word that keeps me established in truth. My heart is guarded by your wisdom, and I walk in discernment by the Holy Spirit, who secures my path in your light, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
