I greet you all my fellow Christians. I hope everyone is doing well by his grace. The good Lord has given us another wonderful day again. I will like to share what I learnt from today's Mass indoctrination ( 5 ).
Today message was about fasting and the wife and husband love. Fasting is when you choose a day or days not to eat nor drink so that you can concentrate on your prayers to God. Fasting help one to loose the bonds of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens and to let the oppressed go free.
Isaiah. 58:6
Is not this the fast I have chosen to loose the bonds of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens and to let the oppressed go free and that ye break every yoke?
During fasting and prayers, you should do good to peoples. You should help the needy if you could. Share the food you you will not eat because of the fasting to the poor or the hungry.
Isaiah. 58:7
Is it not to share your bread with the hungry that thou bring the poor and homeless into your house; when you see the backed, to cover him and not to hide yourself from your own flesh?
During fasting, we should not be like hypocrites, where they will let peoples to know that they are fasting.
Mathew. 6:16
Moreover when ye fast, do not look like gloomy like the hypocrytes, for they disfigure their faces that their fasting may be seen by others. Truely, I say to you, they have received their reward.
Mathew. 6:17
But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face.
Mathew. 6:18
That your fasting may not be seen by others but by your father who is in secret. And your father who sees in secret will reward you.
Husband and wife should love one another. You should not deprive yourselve of sex, onless you all agreed to abstain from it for sometime.
1Corinthians. 7:5
Do not deprive one another, except perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you may devote yourself to prayers; but then come together again, so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of control.
Husbands and wives should be faithful to each other. You should not defile your defile your marriage bed.
Hebrew. 13:4
Let the marriage be held in honour among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous.
Women should dress nicely so that they will not catch men attention always, expecially, marriage women. And men too, you should not look at a woman with lust.
Mathew. 5:28
But I say unto you, that whosoever who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
11Peter. 2:14
Having eye full of adultery, insatiable for sin. They entice unsteady souls. They have hearts trained in greed. Accused children.
Husbands should love their wives.
Proverb. 18:22
Whosoever findeth a wife findeth a good thing and obtain favour of the Lord.
Colossians. 3:19
Husbands, love your wives and be better against your wives.
Ephesians.5:25
Husbands, love your wives as Christ love the church and gave himself up to her.
Thank you all for your time.
