TOPIC: REJECT UNGODLY DEMANDS IN MARRIAGE PROCESS December Thursday 10th
Text: Genesis 29: 18-22
Key verse: Genesis 34: 12 Ask me never so much dowry and gift, and I will give according to as ye shall say unto me: but give me the damsel to wife.

Satisfactory settlement in dowry payment and other legitimate demands of the parents should be done to enable the release of their daughter for marriage. Ungodly demands should be politely and firmly rejected. Neither should money equivalent be given. Sister, if you are a Christian, start working on your parents now if you are hoping to get married to a righteous man. Let them know that whiskey or alcohol is not acceptable and money will not be given in exchange for it. Get them prepared against those abominable things. These standards were set by their forefathers that didn’t know the gospel, but we are not going after the customs and traditions of men. Therefore, prepare your parents for your marriage settlement. Explain to them all the things that are not to be done. List them one by one now that you have not even brought a suitor home yet. Get them informed so that they can get prepared.

Of course, the marriage committee will delegate people that will go with you. It is not just two of you that will go for the ceremony and pay the bride price because if you go alone, we would not know if you have compromised there since we do not have witnesses. If we have no witness to testify of what you did there; whether or not you even met your dowry obligation to the sister’s parents, how then do you think that we would wed you? You went and gave alcohol to some people and now you say we should wed you? My brethren, don’t ever bring pollution to Holiness Revival Movement in your State and Nation. It is better that you do not wed than that you wed a polluted person. Everything must be supervised and assessed in holiness from the beginning to the end to ensure holiness all through the process. As Paul said, “That I might present them perfect unto the Lord.” That is how it should be. We will not lay hand suddenly on any man so as not to become a partaker of his or her sin.

Thought for the day: Ungodly demands should be politely and firmly rejected during the marriage process.
Song for the day: Something more than gold, something more than silver....
Bible reading for the day: Hosea 5-8; Revelation 1

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
