For taking your time to study remain blessed. MINISTRATION AND INSPIRATION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT SUNDAY JANUARY 8 TEXT: ACTS 16: 6-10 Key verse: “Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth: for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak: and He will shew you things to come” John 16:13. The church is not a man's personal possession and so should not be handled by the human leader as thought it were his personal property. To raise up a holy and spiritually balanced congregation the minister in charge must learn the wise use of the resources God has provided for the spiritual well being of His flock. These include righteous and holy men whom He has endowed with spiritual gifts and calling and the inspired gospel materials produced by them. The minister must prayerfully and wisely employ the services of these men, and their materials should be put to appropriate use for the edification of the church, without denominational fear, inhibitions, biases or bigotry. The souls of those in the Assembly are precious; hence their spiritual wellbeing and eternal life must be the main focus and preoccupation of the church and her ministers. The Word of God or the Scripture refers primarily to the written word contained in the 66 Books of the Holy Bible. This was written by the perfect inspiration of the Holy Spirit and is error free. It is the authority for all Christian doctrine and practice. It is the basis of our faith and hope and the bound of true obedience, love and service. However, the Lord manifests His word to us through spiritual gifts which are still valid in the church today. Holy Spirit inspired prophecies or revelations are equally the word of God which should be received and obeyed by those they are directed to. God also manifests His word to us through dreams, visions, trance, audible voice, inward voice and inward impression. John 16:13 “Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth: for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak: and He will shew you things to come”. Holy Spirit inspired prophecies or revelations are equally the word of God which should be received. Always Seek to minister by the leading of the Holy Spirit. Thought for the day: Spirit inspired prophecies and revelations are equally the word of God. Song for the day: Touch me one more time oh Lord (2x) I need a touch from the Master. . . Bible reading for the day: Genesis 20-22; Matthew 7 #horemow.

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
