DCLM Sincere Milk 12 March 2026 Devotional by Pastor W. F. Kumuyi — Look Away From Bad Things

Topic: Look Away From Bad Things

Text: Psalm 101: 1-7

1(A Psalm of David.) I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O LORD, will I sing.

2I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.

3I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.

4A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.

5Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.

6Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.

7He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.

Key Verse: “I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.” Psalm 101:3

Message

On December 16, 1997, many Japanese children experienced various neurological problems, including epileptic seizures while watching the popular cartoon series named “pocked monsters”. Over six hundred children were taken to hospitals. The incident is referred to in Japan as the “Pokemon shock” (Wikipedia).

The whole world is full of bad and ungodly actions that can corrupt the heart, mind and character of children and also negatively affect their health. Examples of these are Pornography, dirty sites on the internet, watching idolatrous practices or festivals, violent or occultic films, ungodly games and Cartoons. Whatever evil thing you set your eyes on to watch will set on evil thoughts, dirty imaginations and unholy emotions in your heart, and eventually set your feet on the destructive way to hell fire.

The wordings of this chorus shows us the danger of looking at bad things “O be careful little eyes what you watch, for there’s a Judge up above Who is looking down below, O be careful little eyes what you watch” God commands that you should keep yourself pure and turn your eyes away from anything that can pollute your heart, mind and life.

If you have the dirty habit of watching any bad thing, repent today and ask for cleansing in the blood of Jesus. Make up your mind never again to set any bad thing before your eyes.

Further Reading: 1 John 2:15-17

Prayer for today: Lord, please keep my eyes fixed on Jesus. Help me not to look on anything that can make my heart, mind and life dirty before you

GOSPEL REALM: STEPS TO SALVATION
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
