TEXT: Ephesians 5:3-14

3. Since you are God’s people, it is not right that any matters of sexual immorality or indecency or greed should even be mentioned among you.

4. Nor is it fitting for you to use language which is obscene, profane, or vulgar. Rather you should give thanks to God.

5. You may be sure that no one who is immoral, indecent, or greedy (for greed is a form of idolatry) will never receive a share in the Kingdom of Christ and of God.

6. Do not let anyone deceive you with foolish words: it is because of these very things that God’s anger will come upon those who do not obey him.

7. So have nothing at all to do with such people.

8. You yourselves used to be in the darkness, but since you have become the Lord’s people, you are in the light. So you must live like people who belong to the light,

9. for it is the light that brings a rich harvest of every kind of goodness, righteousness, and truth.

10. Try to learn what pleases the Lord.

11. Have nothing to do with the worthless things that people do, things that belong to the darkness. Instead, bring them out to the light.

12. (It is really too shameful even to talk about the things they do in secret.)

13. And when all things are brought out to the light, then their true nature is clearly revealed;

14. for anything that is clearly revealed becomes light. That is why it is said, “Wake up, sleeper, and rise from death, and Christ will shine on you.”

(Good News Translation Holy Bible)

TOPIC: BEWARE OF GOD’S ANGER

Sin is moving at a very fast rate in our society. Many children in primary and secondary schools are aware and even participate in homosexuality, lesbianism and so forth.

Some parents are also involved in all of these immoral practices, and, therefore, find it difficult to control their children. All of those who are into these practices will not inherit the Kingdom of God.

We are warned not to partake in such worthless deeds of evil and darkness. Children of God must expose evil instead of participating in it because they are children of light. If you do not want to incur God’s anger, then run away from sin.

QUESTION: Who can stand the anger of God?

PRAYER: Save me, o Lord, from anything that will make me to incur Your anger, in Jesus name, Amen.
