For taking your time to study remain blessed. WORLDLY ADORNMENTS AND ENTERTAINMENT MONDAY APRIL 24 TEXT: MATHEW 6:19-24 Key verse: “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world if any man love the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him” 1 John 2:15 Those who have accepted the Lord Jesus Christ, as their personal Lord and Savior have become children of God. They are no more of the world and so must not love the world, neither the things of the world. They must not talk, walk, dress like the sinners in the world, because these things are not of God but of the world. The world will soon pass away with all its pleasures, adornments and entertainments. Therefore the Lord commanded us not to lay our treasures on earth but in heaven, for where our treasures are there will our hearts be also. We are not to amass wealth for the satisfaction of the flesh. What does the Bible say about worldly adornments and entertainment? Whenever God wants to have intimate dealings with His people, He orders them to put away the strange gods from among them, which include their ungodly clothing and ornamental adornments (Genesis 35:1-5, Exodus 33:1-6). God cannot deal kindly and mercifully with us while we remain stiff-necked, and still dress like the harlots of the world. We must steer clear of worldly dressing, make-up and corrupt styles. We must not use jewelry which includes earrings, make-up, nose rings, necklace, chains, bracelets, all rings and beads. The believers in Christ must not perm or jerry-curl the hair. They must not use attachment, weave on, cortex, lipstick. We must not put on body revealing dresses. The Christian girls and women must not put on trousers, mini-skirts, short gowns and any kind of indecent dresses. The men too must not cut their hair in worldly styles nor dress ungodly. They must not sag their trousers. Believers must also abstain from worldly music, movies and dancing, and must not bring that into the church for the worship of God. Those who live in the pleasures of the world are presently dead in the sight of God, and are going to be judged by God on the judgment day. Thought for the day: You cannot serve God and worldly pleasures at the same time. Song for the day: Who is like unto Thee, O Lord (2x), Among the gods, who is like Thee…. Bible reading for the day: 2 Samuel 10-12; Luke 19:29-48 #horemow

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 ...
