Open Heaven 22 November 2018 – Dangers of Ignorance

Open Heaven 22 November 2018 Memorize: Having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of blindness of their heart: Ephesians 4:18
Open Heaven 22 November 2018 Bible Reading Hosea 4:6 (KJV)

6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

Open Heaven 22 November 2018 Bible in one year: Ezekiel 21-22, John 1:1-28, Hymnal: Sing Hymn 22
Ignorance means a lack of knowledge. It is a state of being uninformed, and this is a very dangerous thing.

People sometimes say that ignorance is bliss, but this is very wrong. Knowledge is power, while ignorance on the other hand is death.
It is what you don’t know that can kill you. A person who doesn’t know how dangerous a snake is can decide to stroke its beautiful body to his or her own peril.
A worker who fails to learn about the requirements peculiar to his or her job will in no time lose that job. Those who don’t learn about what to eat and what not to eat will one day poison themselves.
Ignorance is indeed very dangerous. As a business person, never invest your money in what you know nothing about. Don’t be in a haste to invest in anything or anyone.
Rather take your time to carry out due diligence so as to avoid losing the resources God had deposited in your care.
To be ignorant about God and spiritual life is also very dangerous. The worst end result of other forms of ignorance is physical death. However, to be Ignorant about the things of God can lead to eternal damnation.
Apart from the things they hear from pastors’ sermons, many Christians have never really sat down with the Bible with a desire to learn one new thing about God. Also Read – Open Heaven 23 November 2018
Thus, ignorance has kept many people at the back side of their breakthroughs. You cannot demand for something you do not know exists. Instead of being ignorant, we are expected to be like the Jews in Berea, of who Acts 17:11 says:

“These were noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.”

Laziness is one of the major reasons why people are ignorant. Some people are just too lazy to explore the word of God in order to know God by themselves. 2nd Timothy 2:15 says:

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”

There is no knowledge as impactful as that which you research by yourself. Silly arguments and fallacies stem from lazy and ignorant Christians who have not taken out time to properly study God’s word.

Every Christian who wants to be armed with the right knowledge of God has to be diligent and consciously make out time to study the Bible so as to know God more.
Open Heaven 22 November 2018 Key Point: The extent of your knowledge depands on how much studying you are ready to do.

Open Heaven 22 November 2018 Hymn 22
WORSHIP OF THE FATHER-HIS HOLINESS

1 Holy Father, we adore Thee,
Rev’rent song to Thee we raise;
Thou art holy, Thou art lofty,
”Holy is Thy Name,” we praise.
2 Loving is Thy heart, dear Father,
Righteous ever are
Thy ways; But how holy is Thy nature,
Yet, to us Christ it conveys.
3 Thou hast ever sanctified us
With the blood of Christ our Lord;
Thou hast separated sinners
Thru the truth which is Thy Word.
4 Thou hast, by Thy Holy Spirit,
Made us holy unto Thee;
And our spirit, soul, and body
Wholly sanctified will be.
5 Oh! the holy life of Jesus
Thru Thy grace we now possess;
Thou wilt make us e’en partakers
Of Thy very holiness.
6 When within that holy city,
Thy full holiness we’ll share,
To the uttermost forever,
”Thou art holy,” we’ll declare.
