THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN SUNDAY APRIL 23 TEXT: ROMAN 14:17 Key verse: “And there shall in no wise enter into it anything that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination or maketh a lie: but they which they are written in the Lamb’s book of life” Revelation 21:27 Some people say that the kingdom of heaven or kingdom of God is here on earth and that hell is also here on earth. They say that if you are healthy and wealthy in this world you are already in heaven, but if you are sickly and poor you are in hell. This is because of their ignorance of the truth as we can see in the gospel of Luke 16:19-24. “There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and dine linen, and fared sumptuously every day. And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fall from the rich man’s table. Moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham’s boom: the rich man also died, and was buried; and in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and saw, Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger into that water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. The scripture says that the kingdom of God is not food and drink, but righteousness and peace, and joy and the Holy Ghost: Righteousness, which is imputeth unto us as a result of our faith in the saving grace of Christ. “For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness”; Peace, which we have through justification. “Therefore” being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ … Our peace with God will keep our hearts and minds steady on God and on heaven; Joy in the Holy Ghost, the joy of salvation, which flows in our hearts because of the forgiveness of our sins. “Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man unto whom the Lord imputeth not iniquity”. When king David sinned and lost the joy of heaven, he cried to God to restore it back to him. Thought for the day: There is no sin, no suffering, no sickness, no sorrow in Heaven. Song for the days: Heaven is full of joy, heaven is full of joy. . . . Bible reading for the day: 2 Samuel 7-9; Luke 19:1-28 #horemow

For taking your time to study remain blessed. August Tuesday 27th TOPIC: CORRECT WATER BAPTISM TEXT: Mark 16:15-16 KEY VERSE: Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. The believer requires water baptism. The baptism that Jesus commanded is in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is done by immersion in water because the three Persons are One. In Acts of the Apostles, the people were baptizing in the name of Jesus. They used the phrase “in the name of Jesus” to indicate that the baptism was carried out as authorized by Jesus, and the baptism authorized by Jesus is that which is done in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is not to say that they dip people in water and say, “I baptize you in the name of Jesus.” The name of Jesus cannot represent the Godhead. The Father is not Jesus, the Holy Spirit is not Jesus, Jesus is God who be

For taking your time to study remain blessed. April Monday 27th TOPIC: TESTIMONY OF RESTITUTION OF FALSIFIED RECORDS by Sis Bosede Ogwurike TEXT: 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 KEY VERSE: Isaiah 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. After accepting the Lord Jesus as my Lord and personal Saviour as a young girl I so much enjoyed the Lord, but at a particular time in my life I entangled myself with so many sins: fornication, abortions, misconduct in two of my undergraduate examination papers, falsification of age, falsification of results in my undergraduate research project and other sins that later required restitution. This created a big vacuum in my life. I no longer enjoyed the presence of God as before and sometimes when I prayed for restoration and revival, I would hear a voice clearly in my spirit saying, “Go and report yourself.” This I did not
