“Worm Expeller”

“And they gave Hebron unto Caleb, as Moses said: and he expelled thence the three sons of Anak.” Judges 1:20
Text — Judges 1:19-22
Message
Deworming is the process which helps get rid of worms that enter the human body. Deworming should be done using prescribed drugs and appropriate dosages.
The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends periodic (once a year) deworming of all children living in areas which has the prevalence of soil-transmitted parasitic worms that is over 20 percent, and twice a year when it is over 50 percent. They also suggested health and hygiene education in schools to reduce transmission and reinfection by encouraging healthy behaviours and adequate sanitation.
Scripturally, a spiritual worm expeller is applied to fighting the enemies of the soul. Caleb in our Bible passage drove out the three sons of Anak (giants in the family of Goliath) from the land as they were causing disturbance. Just as a worm causes discomfort to the human body and can only be removed by a worm expeller so also is sin. When sin which is the enemy of your soul is in your life, it will hinder you from getting to heaven and that is why you need a spiritual worm expeller to drive sin away. This can be achieved through genuine repentance and cleansing through the blood of Jesus. Then you must determine never to go back to sin anymore.
