REASON FOR OUR CONFIDENCE

God bless you for taking the time to study

TOPIC: REASON FOR OUR CONFIDENCE 
TEXT: 1 John 5:13-15 

TUESDAY FEBRUARY 28th 

Key verse: “And this is the confidence that we have in Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He heareth us;” 1 John 5: 14 
Why are we confident? It is because of the following reasons among others: 
(1). The Testimonies of the Bible. God answered the prayers of Bible saints.  That gives us confidence today that He will answer our prayers too. 
Psalm 65:2 O thou that hearest prayer, unto Thee shall all flesh come. 
(2). The Historical Testimonies. These refer to the testimonies that we have heard from the history of Christianity up to our time. We have heard how God intervened in people’s lives and families; how God answered prayers over the Church, societies, and nations. That gives us the confidence that God will answer our prayers too. 
(3). Contemporary Testimonies. These refer to testimonies of our fellow brothers and sisters - the ones we are witnesses to. They testify to our hearing that God answers their prayers. This assures us that God will answer our prayers too.
 (4). Our Past Testimonies. Even we have testimonies of answered prayers. In the hard circumstances of our lives, during the difficult situations, we passed through; we prayed, we called upon God and the Lord answered. That assures us for present requests will be similar attention from God. 
Psalm 34:4 I sought the LORD, and he heard me and delivered me from all my fears. 

Thought for the day: The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.

Song for the day: Forever O Lord, Thy word is settled in heaven…

Bible reading for the day: Numbers 21-25; Mark 7:14-37; Mark 8:1-21

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
