2 Timothy 2:19 (KJV) – “Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.” – 2 Timothy 2:19
As children of God, we are called to live a life that reflects His character and holiness. We are expected to live a life that is distinct from the world. Our lives should be a reflection of His love, mercy, and righteousness. To continue in sin while carrying His name is to invite contradiction in your spiritual identity. Also, continuing in sin not only brings shame to His name but also hinders our fellowship with Him. This is why we ought to strive to live a life that is worthy of our calling by fleeing from sin.
This requires a conscious decision to turn away from anything that displeases God and to shun all forms of sin and unrighteousness. However, when we flee from sin, we must flee towards righteousness. This is making a daily commitment to doing only that which pleases the Lord.
Today, if you are struggling with sin, remember that God’s grace is available to help you overcome. God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. Turn away from sin and flee towards righteousness. Turn to the word, give yourself to fasting and prayer and prioritize fellowship with the brethren. Flee from sin and walk in the light of His presence. You are not alone in your struggles, God is always there to help you. With His strength, you can overcome and experience freedom and victory in Christ. Hallelujah!

Father, in the name of Jesus, I receive fresh grace to pursue intimacy with You. Let Your Word purify my desires, and Your Spirit empower me to walk in holiness daily
Nation Focus: Gabon
Gabon, located on Central Africa’s west coast, is rich in natural resources and known for its political stability compared to neighbouring nations. While the country has enjoyed relative peace, many still struggle with poverty, inequality, and limited opportunities. The Church has influence, but spiritual lukewarmness and shallow faith are common. There is a need for discipleship, and a move of the Spirit that brings lasting transformation to families and communities.
