TOPIC: PRISCILLA’S STEADFASTNESS TO THE GOSPEL WORK
Friday November 15th
TEXT: 2 Timothy 4:6-8, 16-19
KEY VERSE: 2 Timothy 4: 19 “Salute Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus.”
Priscilla and Aquila continued to work with Paul, until the last day of his ministry work. Paul knew that his service in the gospel work was coming to an end and prepared to meet Jesus Christ in heaven. The scripture references above equally show Priscilla’s steadfastness with her husband in support of the gospel work with Paul, the Apostle to the end. Women in HOREMOW should stand steadfastly in the gospel work with their husbands to the end. In other words, women should be inspirers of their husbands in the gospel work as did Priscilla. God has called the women of HOREMOW to remain steadfast with their husbands in the ministry work. There should be no iota of backsliding in God’s calling. God has put leadership in your hands to support your husband in the ministry.
A story was told of a faithful woman whose husband’s arrest for the preaching of the gospel in a communist country didn’t prevent her from supporting him to the end. The husband was taken to prison and judgment passed on him to deny Jesus or faced a death sentence. As this was going on, the woman requested to see her husband in prison. The woman stood as an inspirer for her husband not to deny Jesus for the sake of upholding their wife-husband relationship. She inspired her husband not to deny Jesus in the prison, but to resist the devil to the end. As the Lord could have it happened, the woman was allowed to see her husband in the prison by the government. She was allowed to visit the prison with the view to persuade her husband to deny Jesus.
On entering the prison, she met with her husband and told him not to deny Jesus irrespective of the awaiting death penalty that was hanging against him if refused to do so. Consequently, the government ordered their execution and were eventually burnt to death. They lost their earthly lives for refusing to deny Jesus but inherited everlasting lives in Christ Jesus. All persuasions failed to convince them to deny Jesus. I pray for such a spirit of persistence to come upon you to stand for Jesus no matter what it takes in obedience to God’s word. In a similar vein, Priscilla and Aquila refused to deny Jesus. They were true disciples of Paul for over three years living in the same house.
Thought for the day: There should be no iota of backsliding in God’s calling.
Song for the day: Isaiah heard the voice of the Lord, and he said here am I send me......
Bible reading for the day:
Ezekiel 10-12; Hebrews 11:1-19

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
