“Be Ye Holy”

Key Verse

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.” Romans 12:1

Text — Romans 12:1-3

Message

God is holy and everything about Him is holy. The Bible makes us to understand that God is of a purer eye than to behold iniquity. This was the reason He could not behold the sins that Jesus was carrying on the cross on behalf of the whole world. As much as God loves us and desires to fellowship with us, we need to be holy like Him as that would bring Him closer to us. The Holy Spirit is the third person in the Godhead. He is holy, He is the Holy Spirit Who cannot dwell in a dirty vessel. You must be holy if you want to receive the Holy Spirit and remain His friend.

Is it possible to live a holy life here on Earth? Yes, it is very possible. This is why God commanded us to be holy. To be holy, you need to first be born again after which you will thirst and pray that God should sanctify and make you holy. Pray always, study your Bible, spend time with God and He will keep you holy in Jesus’ Name.
