THE REAL FIX YOU NEED!
Memorise:
Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for
I am God, and there is none else. Isaiah 45:22
Read: Isaiah 45:20-25
20 Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye that are escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge
that set up the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a
god that cannot save.
21 Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel
together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who
hath told it from that time? have not I the Lord? and there is
no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is
none beside me.
22 Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth:
for I am God, and there is none else.
23 I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my
mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me
every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.
24 Surely, shall one say, in the Lord have I righteousness
and strength: even to him shall men come; and all that are
incensed against him shall be ashamed.
25 In the Lord shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and
shall glory.
MESSAGE
In an attempt to fill the void created by the absence of God
in some people’s lives, they find themselves using mind-
bending substances. This is very rampant in societies that
have replaced God with government. In admission of their
failure to achieve this folly in the lives of men, some of them
now allow the free use of these substances. What they fail
to realise is that without Jesus Christ, you can never be
complete (Colossians 2:10). Nothing else can take His
place. The effects of mind-bending drugs such as marijuana
or cocaine can never fill His space in the heart. If you take
any of these, it will only take you “high” into a world of
hallucination: an unreal world that Satan creates for you
while the effects of these drugs last, but afterwards, he
drops you far below where he took you from, leaving you
feeling deeply depressed, dissatisfied, empty and naked.
Any person who uses mind-bending substances will always
want to experience the “high” feeling again and again in a
vicious cycle. It is ironic that there is never a feeling of
satisfaction derived from the use of these substances.
Rather, one wrap becomes too small and the fellow moves
on to two, three, four or even five in order to experience the
effect that used to be derived from just a single wrap or
shot. It gets to a stage where they now live for hard drugs.
At this point, nothing else matters to them but another wrap
or shot All along, each use of those substances lead the
user into madness.
No hard drug satisfies, but Jesus Christ does. He is the
“hard drug” that can fix your life once and for all. Take one
shot of Jesus Christ and He will take you truly high and keep
you there. One wrap of Jesus will give you a bit of the
heavenly experience that will increase every passing day as
you fellowship with Him. Have you received Jesus into your
life? Are you a drug addict? Do you need a fix every now
and then? All you need is Jesus! He satisfies. He will
quench your thirst for inordinate things. Receive Him into
your heart and it shall be well with you. Your life will receive
the transformation you need. Are you addicted to drugs and
other mind-bending substances? Have you made effort to
stop their use but could not stop? In the Name of Jesus
Christ of Nazareth, you are set free today! That habit
holding you bound is broken now! I command every demon
of addiction to release you now! You are liberated from their
grip in Jesus’ Name. Submit yourself to the environment of
accountability in a church to strengthen your resolve never
to go back.
Action point
Reach out to drug addicts for Christ or lend a helping hand
to ministers dedicated to their salvation and rehabilitation.
