Highway of Holiness

Holy Spirit. Holy Holy Holy. Holiness – being cut off or separated from all that is unclean and dedicated to all that is pure and clean. About 900 times word “holy” in mentioned.

Holiness is the highway to your destiny (Isaiah 38:9) Highway will go through valleys and hills but it leads to the palace. Don’t take exists of compromise Don’t take the country road of disobedience. Faith lets you see it holiness leads you there 10 Commandments are not for heaven but earth Land you are about to possess will vomit you out like it did the nations before you

Holiness must be pursued (Hebrews 12:14) Holiness brings happiness. Happiness doesn’t bring holiness Holy Spirit, not Happy Spirit. Holy God, not Happy God. Holy Because I am Holy – People can’t be HOLY Paul said flee, and pursue. Sin will chase you, Holiness waiting to be pursued

Presence of God brings holiness. Holiness brings the Presence of God You can’t be intimate with God without holiness. You can’t be holy without being intimate with God It’s not holiness you should pursue but His presence You will be as Holy as your commitment to His word. HOLY BIBLE….there is holiness in this book Read it, listen to it, meditate in it, confess it, obey it – five fingers Holiness is by-product of being in God’s word, which is being in God’s presence Power of God brings fear of God. Holiness is impossible without fear of God Joseph didn’t know about the Love of God but of the Fear of God. Run from sin. Run into sin Great fear came upon the church (Acts 4:11; Exodus 20:18-21) Fear of man is trap. Fear of God is freedom Fear of God comes when you see the power of the enemy destroying people’s lives Fear gribbed the hearts of People in Jericho because they saw the power of God. If people with seeing miracles could slip what chance you do have without seeing God’s power Watching crap may not cause you to fear but it will contaminate the fear of God in you Video games, movies, kills the appetite for watching real genuine stuff….
