TOPIC:  CHRISTIAN MARRIAGE IN PERSPECTIVE.  FRIDAY SEMPTEMBER 1 
TEXT:  GENESIS 24:50-60
KEY VERSE:  “Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD. “(Proverbs 18:22).

God loves His children and is concerned with their welfare. As God thought out a marriage partner for Adam and brought her to him, so he is planning for His children, to join them in marriage. We need to know the following facts about the marriage of God's children.

i.            There is a Christian way of marriage which is righteous, holy and God-honouring. The couple desiring to marry must be born again and righteous.
ii.            Individuals going into marriage must do so under their freewill
iii.            Physical maturity is required for marriage. It is required also that the man should be able to provide for his family.
iv.            Prayer, faith, discernment and counseling are required to marry according to God's will.
v.            Medical verification on essential things such as deadly disease, impotency and blood genotype is required to avoid sorrow after marriage.
vi.            Parental consent and dowry payment is required.
vii.            The period of courtship must be handled sensitively and righteously.
viii.            Believers must not follow the standard of the world in marriage. 
ix.            The church and its marriage committee play important role in the marriage of her godly children, according to God’s will.
x.            Fruitfulness in life and ministry largely depends on the stability of marriage of God's children. Eternity too may depend upon it.
xi.            Church wedding makes marriage a holy and honourable thing. Church wedding is not for those already married and are staying together or have defiled themselves.
xii.            Young widows and widowers may re-marry. 

Keep yourself pure as a single or as one in courtship or as one in widowhood. Pray earnestly to overcome any delay in getting a marriage partner.

Thought for the Day:  Marrying according to God’s will makes your home God’s habitation.
Song for the Day: O give us Christian home.
Bible reading for the day: Psalm 148-150; 1 Corinthians 11:16-34

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

VIRTUOUS WOMEN FOR END TIME REVIVAL SATURDAY APRIL 29 TEXT: John 4: 39-42 Key Verse: “And Ruth said, Entreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God” Ruth 1: 16 When the Lord shall come He shall gather the wheat but the tares shall be cut down and cast into the lake of fire, God is looking for some wheat to use. In the house of God we have faithful and unfaithful servants, we have zealous servants and slothful servants, we have hardworking servants and lazy servants.
