TOPIC: WHATEVER GOD ASKS YOU TO GIVE UP, DO IT FOR YOUR PEACE AND ETERNAL LIFE
TEXT: Genesis 16:11-12
11 And the angel of the Lord said unto her, Behold, thou art with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the Lord hath heard thy affliction.
12 And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.
KEY VERSE: Philippians 3:8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ.
When Sarah asked Abraham to send away Hagar and her son Ishmael, it grieved him. But God consented for a reason even though He knew it was painful to Abraham, His friend. Because God knew the future of the child, He told Abraham to get him out of the family. God knew that the child would grow up to become an international troublemaker. He would be causing trouble all over the world.
If Abraham allowed him to mingle closely with his children, he would never allow their prosperity; he would never allow their peace; Abraham’s children and children’s children shall suffer great opposition in the hands of Ishmael. God knew that if Ishmael remained in Abraham’s house, His promise concerning Abraham’s life would be frustrated.
His works and plans concerning Abraham’s life would be frustrated for as long as Ishmael remained in that family. Abraham didn’t know this at that time but God knew. God knew what would happen in hundreds of years to come. God knew what would happen a thousand years to come five thousand years to come. That was why He instructed Abraham to handle the matter that way to remove the obstacle to His glorious destiny.
It was Abraham’s mistake to have slept with his wife’s maid. God did not promise him a child through another woman. So my brother, my sister, what are these things that are too costly for you to remove or give up? You are working with somebody’s certificate, which means you are living by impersonation. That document is a lie and the Lord is saying you cannot build your foundation upon a lie.
You must confess it for heaven’s sake. Don’t say, “God, You have to understand. How will people see it? I can’t go back to school now.” The Lord is not talking about going back to school. He is saying you should confess that fraudulent certificate and withdraw from that service. You need to do it for your peace and eternal life.
How did you feel each time you hear that Jesus is coming soon? Were you not almost saying, “God stop, please stop?” God should stop until when? You have no peace in your life, and this you know. Your dreams are showing that you are missing the rapture. You have prayed; you have fasted but there is no answer. Confess that thing for your peace and for your eternal life.
Thought for the day: Nothing is too valuable to give up in this life in order to enter heaven.
Song for the day: Grace, grace, God’s grace. Grace that would pardon….
Bible reading for the day: Deuteronomy 29-30;
Mark 16 #Horemow.

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.  Monday 10th November  Text: Jude 1: 2-5 Key verse: Jude 1: 3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. The faith of Jesus has already been delivered and it is written in the scriptures. Whatever prophecies, revelations or dreams that comes must not be contrary to the standard in the scripture. They must speak the same thing. The testimony of Jesus is spirit of prophecy. Every prophecy or revelation must honour Jesus and must be according to the written word. Even where they are new things, they must not contradict because the Bible is a summary of the things Jesus did. The Bible cannot contain all things. It must be according to what the scripture has already signified, ...
