EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING

SUNDAY MAY 6, 2018

TOPIC: FREEDOM FROM WITCHCRAFT

TEXT: ACTS 19:18-20

Key verse:“Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son” Col 1:13

Some ministers forbear to preach the truth because they want to have money; they want to ride jeep; they want to have mansions but there is no genuine conversion. They call themselves successful but in truth they are going after vanity and shall end up in the pit of hell. Never say they are successful because they are not.
Following are the identification marks of a successful minister:
1. Righteous and holy living. You might have been failing because of sin in your life. Have you been living a lie? You're are committing immorality; how can you be
successful? You are saved to serve God in holiness, not in sin. Luke 1:74-75
74. That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
75. In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.

2. Faith in God (Hebrews 11:6; Jeremiah 17:5-8). Your ministry should be God centred. Run your ministry by faith. Don't look to any man. Look to God alone. Why go about begging men for money, telling lies to get money? You don't mind
collecting dirty money as tithe from evil workers armed robbers, 419, kidnappers?

3. Persistence in prayer. Jeremiah 29:12-13
12. Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.
13. And ye shall seek me,
and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.

4. Love. Love God to the point of suffering for Him. God suffered and died for
you in love but you're not ready to suffer persecution of people by telling them the truth that will save them? If you love the people you will not be hiding from them the truth that will save them. Matthew 22:37-38. Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind … Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

5. Knowledge, understanding and practice of God's word. Ezra 7:10 For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the law of the LORD, and to do it, and to teach in Israel statutes and judgments.

6. Associate with holy and faithful ministers. Learn from righteous people, holy ministers. Proverbs 13:20 He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.

7. Be fearless and courageous. 2 Timothy 1:7.

8. Be hardworking. Proverbs 22:29.

Thought for the day: Serve to please God, not men.

Song for the day: I will exalt you Lord for thou has lifted me above my enemies, your banner over me is love.

Bible reading for the day:
1Kings 12-13;
Luke 24:36-53

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
