God's blessings shall follow you, for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: THINGS GOD-FEARING PARENTS DESIRE FOR THEIR CHILDREN
TEXT: PROVERBS 23:24-25

THURSDAY AUGUST 10TH

Key verse: Proverbs 27: 11 My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that reproacheth me 
Parents instruct their children to live godly so that they can be happy. Christian parents preach to their children to submit their lives to Jesus so that they also will be holy, happy and inherit the kingdom of God in the end. When you are a good child, you make them happy. You may be the only child but how awful it is if you are an armed robber. But imagine if the only child is godly: humble, respectful, and well behaved, you will be more to your parents than 10 children, just like John the Baptist. Parents rejoice when they have good children. On the other hand, parents of bad children suffer reproach from people in their neighborhood, schools, and the church. People laugh and sneer at them. Your mother is in continuous sorrow and bitterness because of your contemptuous lifestyle. 
With this attitude, many parents plead seriously with their children not to come around when they have visitors. Their dresses are evil and ungodly and show insanity, nakedness, and indecency which plague their parents and shame them. Hence, they pray that their children should be saved and delivered from an irresponsible lifestyle that brings reproach to them. Wearing short gowns, skirts, tight-fitting dresses, ungodly hairdos, bleaching, funny haircut, exposing your buttocks, wearing torn dresses, etcetera. are activities that bring shame to godly parents. Therefore, be a good boy and a good girl. Do not allow evil reports about you to enter the ears of your parents for what you have shamelessly done in the school or society. Change your attitude so that your parents can have what to say to their accusers if they try to reproach them. Jesus also is calling you to come and follow His lifestyle.
God will bless your parents and your family if you cooperate with your parents to live a godly and holy life. The word of God to you then is, to give yourself to a life of truth, righteousness, and holiness. Be godly and pursue wisdom. Be clothed with Jesus all the days of your life. Repent and change the testimony of your life in the family, society, and church. Make up your mind and change.

Thought for the day: Be clothed with Jesus all the days of your life.  

Song for the day: Jesus loves me, He died for me…

Bible reading for the day: Psalm 88-89; Romans 10

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

  REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. PRAY CONSTANTLY                                                                      FRIDAY 11 MARCH TEXT: Luke 18: 1-7 Key verse: 1 Thessalonians 5:17; Pray without ceasing. I wish My children, whilst upon earth, to live more and more with Me in “the heavenly places”. Here, there is no fear or hurry or fret of spirit. I am gratified when you wait upon Me –which waiting I always honour. My thoughts, as you wait upon Me, are impressed upon you: all that I am must be increasingly absorbed by you. It is as you wait upon Me that I give to you that sense of calm assurance which you must carry about with you always. It comes from knowing that everything you have committed to Me is being surely worked out. Yes, immerse yourself in Me –and do ...
