SUBMIT TO LEADERSHIP IN RIGHTEOUSNESS

For taking your time to study remain blessed

TOPIC: SUBMIT TO LEADERSHIP IN RIGHTEOUSNESS November  Tuesday 3rd

Text: Numbers 8:9 –11

Key verse: Numbers 3:45 Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites instead of their cattle; and the Levites shall be mine: I am the LORD. 

We are serving God, but we are doing so under a leader. It is the will of God that men serve under leaders. If you think you are too great to serve under a leader, you have missed divine plan. If you lack the ability to humble yourself under leaders, you have missed it. It is either you have not come to Christ or you have lost the grace you received. Christ is humble. He was born in a humble place. Christ submitted Himself to be led by men for some time but you feel too big, too great and too high to submit. Note that going to heaven is a serious matter. 

Every minister that claims to have a ministry should consider this: How do you know that you have a ministry? Have you understood the future of the ministry? It is not in a man that walketh to direct his steps; so, be very careful that you don’t take over the direction of your ministry by yourself. You will not make it because man cannot lead himself. Allow God to lead you because there are many things about that ministry you do not know. 

The Lord is the One that has your ministry in His hand and directs it to wherever He wants. Be sensitive to know where God is leading. Be very sensitive because He is leading you on the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Where He is guiding you, He is more interested in righteousness than achievement. He is more interested in your holiness than your achievement, hence He guides you on the path of righteousness for His name’s sake. Follow Him. Be sure that you are not stubborn to divine guidance. Be sure that you seek and know His mind well and follow Him as He has told you. As we see this done in the world, so is it also required in the Church, that there should be leaders. Levites are servants in the temple serving God. To serve our God, you must be clean. Be clean in your mouth. Don’t be a liar. Be clean in your heart. Don’t hate people, keep malice or bear grudges. Do not lust after people, men or women. Do not be proud in your heart. Lies and pride should be cleansed out of your life.

Thought for the day: Serve in righteousness and purity. 

Song for the day: I will go with Jesus everywhere, no matter the roughness of the road...

Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 36-37; Philemon

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
