TOPIC: EVERY BELIEVER NEEDS A SECOND TOUCH       November Monday 16th

Text: Ezekiel 36:24-29

Key verse: Ezekiel 36:26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.


It is commonly known of believers that after salvation experience the heart still shows some filthiness under certain conditions and circumstances. You may not notice the filth immediately you are born again because of joy and happiness but with time, as you continue in your Christian life, you begin to have some tensions and feelings that you do not actually approve of. They are not obvious sins like fornication, drunkenness and others. These are sins that have to do with the heart. That is why God was practically saying, “My son, give Me your heart. I want to make it righteous. I want to do another operation on the heart that will make it whiter than snow.” Even among the disciples of Jesus, He noticed some kind of life that showed filths and dirt. They were children of God but self-seeking and self-promotion were manifested in them. They were not thinking of how they will glorify God. Holiness has not been achieved completely in their lives because there was a struggle within them. 


They may not act openly because of embarrassment, but inside them there was a struggle on who is better than the other.  There was a desire to make self known. God makes a man known, but you want to make yourself known, you want to announce your good works, you want people to know you are different. This shows holiness is not complete in your life. This happens to those who still have the remains of sin, adamic nature and inward pollution in them. My son bring your heart again, let me give it a second touch to make it gentle and settle down so that you will be dead to self and seek only the glory of God. Jesus Christ said, I seek not my own glory but the glory of Him that has sent me to bring you to that state that you will not be seeking your own glory.  When you seek self-glory, it shows dirt is still in your life, you are not yet clean. Sanctification is required to make holiness easy, peaceful and bright in your life.


Thought for the day: Sanctification experience makes you live a holy and peaceful life

Song for the day: Holiness is the beauty of the believer, Lord I want to be holy....

Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 13-15; Hebrews 11:20-40

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
