QUALITIES OF ACCEPTABLE AND REWARDABLE SERVICE

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: QUALITIES OF ACCEPTABLE AND REWARDABLE SERVICE

TEXT: 1 PETER 5: 1-6 

TUESDAY MAY 2ND 

Key verse: Hebrews 11:6 “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”
(I).  Faith: Faith says God calls you and will reward you. Do not allow any situation to distract you. 
(ii).  Faithfulness: Do it according to pattern; according to Divine specification. 
(iii).  Humility: Be humble so you can perform service unto God. If you see yourself as highly placed, you may be directing works to younger ministers under you to do while some of these works may be for you. Where other people are assigned responsibilities and you are left out, God must have chosen somebody at that time to do it, so be humble and listen.
(iv).  Holiness: Cloth yourself with the garment of holiness as a believer. 
(v).  Sufferings: It is given to all believers not only to believe in Christ but to partake in His sufferings. There is a reward if you suffered with Him. 
(vi).  Wisdom: is the principal thing. Seek it and seek understanding. 
(vii).  Love: should be the principle on which you work. 
(viii).  Prayer: The effectual, fervent prayers of the righteous avails much.
(viii).  Righteousness: Note that the little service rendered in righteousness is greater than the great one without holiness. 
(ix).  Divine pattern and Trust: If your service is done with patience in line with the divine pattern, it gives sweet savour coming out of a pure heart.

Thought for the day: Be humble and pure while rendering service unto God 

Song for the day: My lifetime, I will give God my lifetime

Bible reading for the day: 1 Kings 3-5; Luke 23:1-26

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
