PURITY AND HOLINESS FOR THE DELIVERED: OBADIAH.VS17; God delights in holiness and purity of life of His children. His desire and command to all His children is that they should be holy as He is holy. 1Peter.1:14-16; Lev.19:1-2; Lev.20:7-8, 26. That is why in giving this promise of deliverance He put holiness at the centre. It is the pivotal point that holds everything. Real deliverance will naturally leads to holiness; any form of deliverance that does not lead to holiness is not of God. Luk.1:73-75. Rom.6:18, 22; 1Thess.4:7-10; 2Cor.7:1. All the promises of God and all the miracles that He performs in answer to prayer are meant to lead us to a life of holiness. 2Peter.1:3-4; Heb.12:14. Without holiness it is impossible for any man to neither get to heaven nor see God. PROVISSIONS FOR OUR HOLINESS AND PURITY: Eph.5:25-17; Titus.2:11-14; Ezekiel.36:25-27; Heb.10:10, 12, 14, 19-22; Hebrews.13:12-13, 20-21; Acts.3:26; Acts.15:9; Ezekiel.36:25-27; Dt.30:6. Because God delights and very much interested in our being holy and pure He has made all necessary provisions for our purity and holiness, Christ has paid the price on the cross of Calvary for our sanctification and holiness. Christ did not only pay the price but also prayed unto father to sanctify us His disciples. John.17:9, 14-23. As a child of God who desire to be in heaven at last this is one indispensable quality that you must possess: HOLINESS OF LIFE. POSSESSING PURITY AND HOLINESS: Math.5:6, 8; Acts.15:9; Ps.51:7-12; 1Thess.2:10; Gen.6:8-9, 22; Gen.7:1, 5; Job.1:1; Isaiah.38:2-5; Ezekiel.14:14, 20; Luk.1:5-7; Gen.39:1-12. From these passages and the experience of men and women in the bible it tells us clearly that purity and holiness of life is very possible. No matter where you live Egypt or Babylon you can be holy. Whether in a corrupt society and civilized society holiness of life can be lived there, nobody has any excuse not to be holy. The question is how do we possess this purity and holiness in our lives? (1) Genuine salvation (2) Total separation (3) Thirst and hunger for it (4) Entire consecration (5) Prayer of faith. 1Thess.5:22-25; Rom.12:1-2. If you not got this experience the time is now, if you have lost it then come back and get it restored. And you are still holding on to get it renewed. PROFITS AND BENEFITS OF PURITY AND HOLINESS: Math.5:8; Job.17:9; Ps.34:15, 17-21; Ps.92:12-14; Heb.12:14; Isaiah.3:10-11; Prov.14:34; Prov.13:6, 21, 25; Prov.3:33; There are great and marvelous benefits in holiness. (1) You will have favour with God (2) Power in prayer (3) Partnership with Trinity (4) The presence of Christ continually. (5) Peace with God and the peace of God in your heart (6) Protection and power over the devil. (7) Paradise. There are many more which time will not permit us to enumerate but it better experienced than knowing it in the head. HOLINESS WITHOUT WHICH NO MAN SHALL SEE THE LORD: BLESSED ARE THE PURE IN HEART FOR THEY SHALL SEE THE LORD.
