For taking your time to study remain blessed. LOVE GOD AND YOUR NEIGHBOUR SUNDAY APRIL 2 TEXT: JOSHUA 4: 7-13 Key Verse: “Hereby we perceive we the love of God, because He lay down his life for us; we ought to lay our life for our brethren” 1 John 3: 16 Beloved, God is Love. He gave His only begotten Son to die on the cross of Calvary for the salvation of mankind. The bible says while we are yet sinners. Jesus died for us. This shows that God’s love is an unconditional love, perfect love and Agape Love. There are different kinds of love in the world today. The love we have for somebody because he is one of our family members, relation and friend is good but is not a perfect love. The love that fornicators have for an opposite sex in the name of boyfriend and girlfriend is the carnal love or lust of the flesh. The love you have for somebody because he is kind and good to you is good but is not a perfect love, because it has traits of selfishness. The perfect love is sacrificial, unmerited and unconditional love. 1 Corinthians 13: 4 – 7. Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. If we are to live a life of Christ we are commanded to love God and our fellow human being. We are to love our God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength. That means our mind should not be divided in the things of God; in prayer, meditation, reading His word, evangelism and Christian service. You cannot love when you are still living in sin, you must be born again and your heart circumcised. The second commandment is like this, we should love our neighbor as ourselves. Our neighbour is not only people living in the same compound, but anybody we come in contact at any point in time either in the school, in the Church, on the streets, in the market or work place. Whatsoever is the need of the person, spiritually, physically and materially, we are to extend hand of fellowship to him. We are to love our enemies by feeding them and praying for them. Thought for the day: Ask the Lord to circumcise your heart today and give you new heart to love. Song for the day: He love me I cannot say why (2x), On Calvary’s tree, He suffered for me Bible reading for the day: Judges 8-9; Luke 8:22-56 #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...
