Key verse to Memorise: Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else. Isaiah 45:22
Bible text: Isaiah 45:20-25:
20 Assemble yourselves
and come; draw near together, ye that are escaped of the nations: they have no
knowledge that set up the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god that
cannot save.
21 Tell ye, and bring
them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from
ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the Lord? and there is no God
else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me.
22 Look unto me, and be
ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.
23 I have sworn by
myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not
return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.
24 Surely, shall one say,
in the Lord have I righteousness
and strength: even to him shall men come; and all that are incensed against him
shall be ashamed.
25 In the Lord shall all the seed of Israel
be justified, and shall glory.
Bible in one year: Exodus 35-36, Romans 16
In
an attempt to fill the void created by the absence of God in some people’s
lives, they find themselves using mind-bending substances. This is very rampant
in societies that have replaced God with government. In admission of their
failure to achieve this folly in the lives of men, some of them now allow the
free use of these substances. What they fail to realise is that without Jesus
Christ, you can never be complete (Colossians 2:10).
Nothing else can take His place. The effects of mind-bending drugs such as
marijuana or cocaine can never fill His space in the heart. If you take any of
these, it will only take you “high” into a world of hallucination: an unreal
world that Satan creates for you while the effects of these drugs last, but
afterwards, he drops you far below where he took you from, leaving you feeling
deeply depressed, dissatisfied, empty and naked.
Any
person who uses mind-bending substances will always want to experience the
“high” feeling again and again in a vicious cycle. It is ironic that there is
never a feeling of satisfaction derived from the use of these substances.
Rather, one wrap becomes too small and the fellow moves on to two, three, four
or even five in order to experience the effect that used to be derived from
just a single wrap or shot. It gets to a stage where they now live for hard
drugs. At this point, nothing else matters to them but another wrap or shot All
along, each use of those substances lead the user into madness.
No
hard drug satisfies, but Jesus Christ does. He is the “hard drug” that can fix
your life once and for all. Take one shot of Jesus Christ and He will take you
truly high and keep you there. One wrap of Jesus will give you a bit of the
heavenly experience that will increase every passing day as you fellowship with
Him. Have you received Jesus into your life? Are you a drug addict? Do you need
a fix every now and then? All you need is Jesus! He satisfies. He will quench
your thirst for inordinate things. Receive Him into your heart and it shall be
well with you. Your life will receive the transformation you need. Are you
addicted to drugs and other mind-bending substances? Have you made effort to
stop their use but could not stop? In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth,
you are set free today! That habit holding you bound is broken now! I command
every demon of addiction to release you now! You are liberated from their grip
in Jesus’ Name. Submit yourself to the environment of accountability in a
church to strengthen your resolve never to go back.
